Cubers in Florida!

I live in northeastern Florida. If you'd actually host an official BLD event, then I'd attend comps regularly. I know a group of people who are interested in cubing in my area and would definitely attend with me.

Could you at put the city name / rough estimate of distance/time? But I do appreciate the response :)
 
I live less than an hour south of Tampa, of course I'd be glad to attend some comps. Idk about meetups... I also have a buddy near me who would be interested in attending with me.
If you need any help, I wouldn't mind to try.

I live in Jacksonville. It's a 3-hour drive, but I visit Orlando and Tampa frequently so it shouldn't be much of a problem.
 
I am a cuber in the jacksonville area that would be interested in attending an event at tampa. I would be willing to make the drive out there to go. Florida does indeed have a severe lack of cubing competitions
 
I grew up in Ft Lauderdale/Miami, and went to USF in Tampa, and there was never anything going on for cubing.
Now that I move to Chicago, you guys want to start this...
And I don't see any cubing comps in Chicago, now... :(
 
I posted that I'd be moving to Tampa and that I would try to start up a cubing scene around here. Not my fault you chose to move :) However, there has been at least one competition in Dixon, IL (a couple hours west of chicago) for the past few years. You can go to Detroit (short trip), Minneapolis (eh 7 hours or something), and even Indianapolis.

I'm originally from the KOII area and trust me when I say there is no shortage of competitions. Even though a lot of the KOII people have left, others are stepping up (See: Kit Clement, 4 competitions a year).

Sweet. Thanks for the heads up. Looks like Dixon might be my best bet.
And I never knew about KOII. Thanks for that.
 
John Brechon hosted the Dixon competitions. He will be starting college this August (I believe). I'm not sure if he plans on staying in the area or not, so honestly I wouldn't get my hopes up. Look at car pooling options for Michigan, Indiana, and University of Illinois Urbana/Champaign.
 
I would love to have competitions or meetups. I went to a camp earlier this year and there were only 5 cubers (not a cube related camp) but it was great to see all the different models of cube and styles of solving among only five of us. I live in the jacksonville area and anything closer than 4 hours away would be great!
 
I'm just north of Tampa. If we get more interest we can get a centralized location (like Gainesville or something) if we're really spread out between Tampa, Orlando, and Jacksonville.

You think you can rally up any other troops? I feel like this thread isn't getting the attention I was hoping it would.

P.S. I have a (possibly more than one) delegate on standby willing to work with me to host competitions down here. I'm all for it - but I need to make sure there's interest and people available to help. I definitely want a meetup or two to meet the local cubers before I host one.
 
I live 1 hour north of Tampa and would defiantly go to a comp down there.
