Connecticut Invitational VI 2/21/15
Posted: Mon Nov 17, 2014 6:17 pm
Greetings:
E. O. Smith High School Academic Quiz Bowl and IQConn are pleased to announce Connecticut Invitational VI, which will take place on February 21st, 2015 at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT. We will be using NAQT IS-144.This is the sixth annual tournament with the purpose of promoting quiz bowl in southern New England. New England teams are strongly encouraged to attend.
The date has been chosen carefully based on the myriad conflicts that happen this time of year. Nevertheless, I wish to acknowledge the problem with Massachusetts' school calendar. I am truly sorry for the conflict, but alas, UConn's Science Bowl is March 7th, and other dates are already taken. I am announcing a month earlier than last year to try to encourage attendance from those MA schools that can pull together a team, despite vacation.
Registration will begin at 8:15 AM with the first round beginning at 9:00 AM. Though it is difficult to know exactly when the tournament will end, it is safe to assume sometime in the early evening around 5 or 6 PM.
Registration information for the tournament is as follows:
Base fee, first team: $80
Additional teams: $70
Working buzzer system: -$5 each
Moderator: -$5 each
Please make checks payable to: E. O. Smith Academic Quiz Bowl. Please plan to pay on arrival at the tournament.
A copy of the registration form can be obtained by emailing the tournament director at [email protected]. You may also use this email for any questions you may have about the tournament.
For those concerned about transportation, a map and driving directions will be sent upon registering. Storrs, CT is located in the Northeastern part of the state, 40 minutes from Hartford, 1 hour, 45 minutes from Boston and 2 hours 45 minutes from New York City (it’s also about 3 hours from Hanover, NH).
We hope that you will join us February 21st, 2015 for Connecticut Invitational VI at the University of Connecticut in Storrs, CT.
