There was a long time when that area had no competitions at all, so I'd love to see that area continue to flourish.

    If possible, people should attend the seminar at Nationals about how you can help organize and get involved. It will be pretty important in the whole scheme of things.
    I won't be at Nats but I can try to pick up some techniques. I'd be glad to organize competitions to supplement once Harvard and MIT stop having them. I have two more years at my high school, so I could maybe do some in 2013-2014 after all the Harvard and MIT guys graduate.

    I'll get in contact with Tim soon and discuss this kind of stuff with him.

    Best to just e-mail the principal(is her name Mrs. Jackson? I totally forgot -__-) and make sure the janitorial staff know you're there. Apart from that, you should be good.

    That email would be fun to write.... No one can get a hold of her from what I can tell. I'm probably going to email the counselor and get her to tell me who to contact or get her to contact them since they might actually listen.

    I thought I would mention that I'm planning a competition November 3 in Fishers Indiana - the venue is already booked. It's not that far away, so you might try to shoot for a date not too close to that.

    I think I'm going to aim for something near the end of November or early December. I'm a little worried about finals because it is right after Thanksgiving in my school and some people might not show up just because of finals.
