Thanks to a number of sponsors, we will be able to offer prizes at the competition. They will be gift certificates (money is handled by the Club at the school, so no cash may be given out). Likely (but no necessarily) VISA pre-paid cards, Wal-Mart cards and Jean Coutu cards. The monetary value listed below is the value of the gift card.

For each event:

- 1st place: $50
- 2nd place: $30
- 3rd place: $15

Current sponsors for prizes are Myers Orleans, local Knights of Columbus, and the local Jean Coutu pharmacy.
Desjardins has been a sponsor all year long, and "Exprime-toi" from the Ministry of Education has been the foundation of the Club.

Furthermore, all podiums will receive a Rubik's branded medal, courtesy of the Rubik's Canadian distributor, Kroeger Inc.

Cool! Too bad I have a 0% chance of podiuming in any event....

Actually there are less "good people" competing than at a TO competition, and at a TO competition even a low 10 average still has a small chance to podium. So, don't count yourself out!

don't worry, the only time i've ever used a stackmat was at competition and i was okay, except for those 2x2 DNFs. just make sure you get to play around with some stackmats before your first solves.

i have one, but i suck at using it. i average a whole second slower.
 
So i was reading the WCA regulations and noticed that they need to see a passport to ensure the country you represent. I remeber people saying you dont really have to worry about it, but I would rather be safe than sorry.

In my experiences, i've never heard anyone that needed one or actually had a problem with not having one. I personally don't have a passport since i do not travel out of my country.

you don't have to worry about it. i don't think this is really a thing and you could loose your passport. seems like taking too big of a risk for such an inprobable problem which isn't really a problem.

You don't need a passport. I have been to 3 comp and no one ask me for a passport.
 
If there is a prize for group under 10(year old), I probably will win. :(

This is our 5th anniversary. Thanks to our sponsors, we are able to give *THREE* door prizes: two for "first timers" (i.e. people participating in their first competition), and one for all competitors. Those door prizes will be Speedstack timers.

You will have to be present to claim your prize. They will be given at the awards ceremony.

For the 2 first timer 'door' prizes, is it random draw or whoever gets the best average?
