Competition in NYC?

[AlexMaass]

I go to Stony Brook University, and I've been trying to get a cubing club started on campus so that we can officially host competitions. Anyone know how to go about it? We have Bobby D'Angelo here, but he's graduating. Rowe Hessler is also close by.

If you need any help organizing a competition you can contact me. I've had a lot of competition experience. Also I think there's some cubing world videos regarding hosting a competition.

I started a cube club at Rutgers a long time ago. You should talk to the office of Student Activities. It can sometimes take a while (>1 year) for a club to be going in full force.

 

[AlexMaass]

what kind of activities does a cube club do? teach people how to solve 3x3 or whatever?

Only high school students? And at 3:30 on a Monday? I couldn't make it anyway.

Originally it was only open to high school students, but recently we've had a couple of middle schoolers come to compete, so even middle schoolers could compete! (As long as they're registered haha)

 

[AlexMaass]

The school has agreed to host the competition!

 

[Matt11111]

YES! Also, wow, I didn't expect to get this much interest. Thanks to Alex, Bob, and the others.

 

[AlexMaass]

No problem! Hopefully this competition is a success.

 

[Matt11111]

In an area like New York, I think it will be!

3:30? I wish I could go. I am a middle school student in Brooklyn, and its kinda dumb that it's a Monday, 'cause Manhattan is far, and I only get dismissed at 2:10.

I think you would have to arrange an early dismissal with a teacher or something.

It won't work out either way.

 

[theROUXbiksCube]

It won't work out either way.

You could always ask, I asked my teacher to let me out early if I do it during my lunch period

 

[MoYuCuber]

Yeah but, I'm gonna have to take the train, which will take long, and they probably won't take in 6th graders.

3:35*

You don't have to come on time. I don't think we will even start right at 3:35, I don't even get dismissed until then.

And yes, we do allow 6th graders!

(Sorry, I copied and pasted from the from we used last year, and things have changed since then.)

I might come to this, but school though lol.
