Chicago Open?

[RDT96]

Anytime but the last saturday in January!

 

[RDT96]

Which saturday are you thinking of?

 

[ShadenSmith]

I'm available for any of those dates.

 

[Mike Hughey]

I'm available for any of those dates.

I thought you told me you couldn't make January 30?

Anyway, it sounds like they're having a competition in Canada that day, so probably neither Chicago nor Indiana should go for that date. It was a bummer when we clashed with them last time - I was hoping some Canadians might attend.

Dave, any other upcoming Canadian competitions we should know about?

Yeah, it is always a lot of fun when we get a mix of us together. Detroit was great for that.

I can say that i am in the early stages of securing the venue for the 30th of January, so it is not definite yet. I need to get out to see the room, as it is one we have not used before. But if it is a go, then it would be the only competition in Canada for that time period. We wouldn't have another until probably March at the earliest.

Mind you, i am speaking strictly about Toronto. Vancouver could be different, but i think it is farther away, geographically speaking, that it would not really affect turn out (except mine).

It would definitely be much easier on my schedule if it was earlier in January, but Jan 23rd is the only date I'm definitely not available. I'll make due with whatever you pick as long as it doesn't clash with Jan 23rd or March 13th.

Okay, that's great - March 13th would be impossible for me anyway, and I'll just make sure we don't use January 23rd either.

Hmmmmmmm.....

 

[Cyrus C.]

Is there a confirmed date for this yet?

 

[DavidWoner]

If there was, don't you think he would have said so?

 

[Evan Liu]

If this is on the 30th, it will be the same day as the Washington DC Open. Hopefully the attendance of each will not be affected too much if that is the case.

 

[Crazycuber]

Um... I've really been planning ahead..
Im going to the New Zealand open this year so probably wont show up.

 

[KevinK]

I talked with the principal today. There are already things happening at school on January 30 and February 20, so we decided on February 6. Sorry if this doesn't work for someone, but that was the best day that fit with my schedule and the school's schedule.

 

[anythingtwisty]

I can't go, but good luck running this! I will be there in spirit.

 

[Boz]

"hopes to get sent on a business trip to chicago office on said date"

 

[Cyrus C.]

Is there a place to pre register? What's the name of the school? What part of Chicago?

 

[anythingtwisty]

Calm down there, it's still in the planning phase..

 

[KevinK]

No website up yet, but I'm sure that there will be soon. The school is Thomas Middle School in Arlington Heights, IL, which is about 20-30 minutes away from O'Hare Airport in Chicago. At least that's what Google Maps said.

Kevin, did you get the email I sent you?

If you need a website, I can set one up for you to edit.
