This year we had a total of 11 school participating in the Invitational they were: Delaware Valley H.S., East Stroudsburg H.S. South, MMI Preparatory School, Notre Dame Senior H.S., Pocono Mountain East H.S., Pocono Mountain West H.S., Stroudsburg H.S., Valley View H.S. and Wallenpaupack Area H.S. All schools did an excellent job and we would like to thank everyone for their participation. Teams gathered in the Notre Dame High School cafeteria to discuss strategies before the tournament started.   As seen here, many of the Monroe County Bar Association attorneys volunteered their time to serve as judges and scorekeepers.

Higgins.   Team advisors sign in and pick up materials from the Hon. Michael Muth. This Mock Trial Student Attorney presents his case to the "Court". Other students support the Mock Trial as witnesses and observers.   Objections are made and motions are granted -- Court is in session!   Attorney Paul R. Kramer, Jr. listens attentively to the young Mock Trial Student Attorney's cross examination of the witness.   Even the Student Attorneys need to pause for consultation and refreshments provided by the Monroe County Bar Association. Confidence and relief comes at the end of the day for these aspiring bards.   Teams reunite at the end of the trial as they await the results........   Future lawyers of America.
