Mike Winther Charge to 2010 Graduates - Modesto, Calif.

Mike Winther is a highly respected coach of one of the most successful debate teams in the nation. My daughters and I attended the annual Modesto Heart of the Valley Tournament where, as tradition has it, Mr. Winther calls all the graduates to the stage for a "charge" to the year's seniors. I'm so glad I pulled out my camera and captured this speech. It's riveting.

Unfortunately, there was no amplification in the auditorium at the time, but I was in the second row, so the audio isn't all bad. In the background, there are some heavy-hitting debaters lined up. They are sweeping the nation with awards, and Mike's charge is for them to use their training for God's glory.
