There apparently is confusion about which contests are held when. As has been the case for many years, here in District 19 we do the Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contests in the fall. The contest cycle has club contests being held in the next few weeks, with Area Contests beginning later this month, the Division Contests typically in October, and then culminating with the District Championship Contests at the District 19 Conference in Waterloo on November 15.
In the spring, there will be the Table Topics and International Speech contests.
