I believe the closest hotels to the competition venue are a few miles away.

On another note, would anyone be interested in getting together the night before the competition for a cube meeting ? We'd need to decide the location, time, etc. fairly soon.

I think the cubing meeting is a good idea xD

@ Ethan: How far away is that from the venue?

 

[Ethan Rosen]

About 15 minutes

 

[Lotsofsloths]

Oh, ok I'll see if I can go there too.

Chris, do you still need someone to share a room with? I might have to take you up on that. I will be driving in on Friday and leaving Saturday night after the competition, so it will only be for one night. Just let me know!

Jason, you might wanna check out this thread, I'm curious about it..

 

[scriptease]

I will be there! Me and my 50 second average, in all of its glory.

Can't wait to meet some of you guys!

Washington DC Open Pre-Competition Meetup

For those of you going to the Washington DC Open 2008, I'd like to have a meetup the night before the competition. However, I'm not sure what would be the best location would be. Perhaps one of the hotels people are staying at? Also, what time would you prefer? Please post your suggestions here, as this would need to be organized as soon as possible.

I'm looking forward to seeing/meeting everyone who plans on coming, and hope this turns out to be a great competition!

 

[watermelon]

Just wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions, considering this would have to happen tomorrow night.

I'm up for a meeting too, where are most people staying? I plan to stay in a hotel/motel nearby, but somewhere cheap. Should we meet in the Lobby of the Mariott? (http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/WASGW)

Are a lot of people planning to stay there?

I'm going to be at that Marriot, but I don't know when I'm getting in

 

[fanwuq]

Can't wait. 2 more days...

 

[watermelon]

Sounds like the Marriott might be the best choice. What would you all prefer for the starting time? 8:00? 9:00?

 

[cmhardw]

8:00pm?

Chris

 

[Ethan Rosen]

I'm taking a train into Grand Central that gets there about 5, so I should be there by eight. See you guys there!

 

[cmhardw]

sounds like 8:00 it is, I'll be there then!

Chris

 

[watermelon]

Sounds good! I might not be able to make it by 8:00, but hopefully before 8:30. See you guys tomorrow!
