American Legion Oratorical Contest
by  Hamby, Donna on 11/11/2019 1:50 PM

Oratorical Contest Flyer                  

Oratorical Contest Application

The American Legion Oratorical Contest exists to develop deeper knowledge and appreciation for the U.S. Constitution among high school students. Since 1938, the program has presented participants with an academic speaking challenge that teaches important leadership qualities, the history of our nation’s laws, the ability to think and speak clearly, and an understanding of the duties, responsibilities, rights and privileges of American citizenship. The program has featured numerous politicians and prominent contestants over the years, including former president candidate Alan Keyes and CNN anchor Lou Dobbs.

Young orators earn some of the most generous college scholarships available to high school students. Over $138,000 in scholarships can be awarded each year. Our local Post winners receive $400 for 1st Prize, $300 for 2nd Prize and $200 for 3rd Prize. the local winner continues to a County-wide competition, District and finally Statewide competition with similar awards for each.  The overall national contest winner gets an $18,000 scholarship. Second place takes home $16,000, and third gets $14,000. Each department (state) winner who is certified into and participates in the national contest’s first round receives a $1,500 scholarship. Those who advance past the first round receive an additional $1,500 scholarship. The American Legion’s National Organization awards these scholarships, which can be used at any college or university in the United States.

High school students under age 20 are eligible. Competition begins at the post level and advances to a state competition. Legion department representatives certify one winner per state to the national contest, where department winners compete against each other in two speaking rounds. The contest caps off with a final round that decides the three top finishers. Speaking subjects must be on some aspect of the U.S. Constitution, with some emphasis on the duties and obligations of citizens to our government. Speeches are eight to 10 minutes long; three- to five-minute speeches on an assigned topic also are part of the contest.

As usual, our local contest will be held at the
 American Legion Gold Star Post 191, 801 Prospect Rd, Mt Airy, Maryland.  This year's competition will take place, Saturday, January 27, 2018 1:30 pm.  Applications are due January 19, 2018.
