Im wondering if there will be a newark competition any time soon. I want to go to a competition and this one seems to be the closest.
 
I'm from New Jersey and I'm also waiting for a competition.

Unfortunately, my parents hate Newark and don't even want to get near it, so Newark is out of the picture for me :(.

The Newark Opens have been held in a very nice section of Newark. They're located right by Rutgers -Newark and it's a very safe area. You can take public transportation right to about 2 blocks from there.

Not sure if that makes any difference at all but it is not a bad section of Newark. I do understand their concerns, though.
 
I'm sure there will probably be one over the summer, but nothing is planned yet.

What makes you so sure? I hadn't planned on hosting one over the summer in Newark. That reminds me, I need to call Liberty Science Center. Would people go if I held a competition there? (lsc.org).

That would be an awesome location, Bob. I would love to attend a tourney there.

I wasn't so sure, I was just guessing, but trying to look more informed :p

I'd go too.

Contradiction city!
 
You have it in the newark library?

Why not have it in rutgers somewhere. I would definetly attend if it was there.

I remember Tyson saying that he hated LSC for some reason. Perhaps it was because they wanted LOADS of money for a space :/

"Liberty Science Center is an interactive science museum and learning center located in Liberty State Park in Jersey City, New Jersey."-Wikipedia

So we are not talking about Newark, but it can be a competition is LSC if you have enough room or space for the tournament, and have a place for the tourament.ex:Lunch room
 
You should really think about having a summer tournament in central jersey.

I'm sure if you organize something, Bob might be able to come and delegate. Just work with him and make sure he's able to come before you secure your venue.

Duh! I'm 12, how can I help him. And you know I can't drive a car.

I agree; LSC would be amazing for a competition, but infuriatingly expensive.

BTW I live less than a mile away from the geographical center of New Jersey (40°08′23.1″N 74°22′34.5″W) so I can help if anyone ever wants a competition in central NJ. It's mostly suburbs here, so I can't think of a potential venue from the top of my head.

I don't see why we should have a competition in central Jersey because it would be quite a distance away from major airports.
