BERMUDA 2008<br />

TEAM BERMUDA<br />

Bermuda is a compact sub tropical island located in the Atlantic Ocean<br />

approximately 900 nautical miles east of New York City. Bermuda is the<br />

oldest British Colony still in existence and boast an interesting mix of British<br />

and Caribbean culture, from the ever helpful British Bobby who directs traffic<br />

in the ‘bird cage’ to the exotic and vibrant performances of our gombey<br />

dancers. Our traditional Sunday morning breakfast of codfish and potato<br />

fishcakes blends the two cultures deliciously! Bermuda has a population of<br />

approximately 67,000 inhabitants and takes up no more than 21 square miles<br />

but is packed full of keen and motivated debaters.<br />

Jacari Brimmer-Landy<br />

Jacari first became involved in debate when at 11 he entered into the Global<br />

Peace And Tolerence debate in Bermuda, a debate organized bythe United<br />

Nations. Ever since then he has been debating for both his school and his<br />

country, although this is his first trip to WSDC. He feels most comfortable as<br />

a third speaker as he enjoys listening to his opponents arguments before<br />

totally tearing them apart.<br />

Catherine Campbell<br />

Catherine Campbell, aged 16, first entered the debating world as a volunteer<br />

house speaker for a local interschool competition when she was 11.<br />
