I'll try and stop by on one of the days. Too bad the LIRR goes nowhere near the arena.

102 will be there again :D and we are definately looking forward to it :D

Which other teams (besides 102) will be submitting chairman's this year?? Good luck to all teams... it's only 1 month away (and a few days haha)

(any way we can move this topic into the Competition section so it's easier to find???)

I'm not going :( -- because its the same weekend as when we go to Boston :)

Someday I'll get to go and take my father there so I can explain the game to him in person. He lives on LI and goes every year and enjoys it, but hasn't a clue whats going on. So if you see an 80-ish-year-old man wandering around watching say hello and explain the game to him. Thanks.

Scott -- I believe the LIRR goes to Hempstead and you can take a bus to Hofstra. Try here http://www.mta.info/libus/routes/routes.htm with the N70/71/72 bus.

Check again, two years in a roll NYC teams have traveled to the Long Island Regional at Hosftra using LIRR or have taken the MTA Nassau County buses from Jamica Bus station (F train to 164th St).
Worth the trip.
:)

And take the bus from there? Gosh that is a trip! (That's the trip I used to take from Pratt to home.) You'll still have to transfer at, what, Roosevelt Field? (Still wish I was going, but my trip will take longer than the F train and N24 combined!)

Exactly. It would be the Q30 to the N22 to the N70/71/72 for me. 2 hours of sitting on a bus instead of a 15 minute car ride..such a hassle.

Re: Long Island!
 
Couldn't you take the Q30 to Jamaica and catch the LIRR to Hempstead? Oy. I guess either way you'd be travelling a while. Bring a good book!

From the SBPLI site info:
Quote:

Getting To Hofstra U. By Railroad
From New York City:
The Long Island Railroad provides regular commuter service from Pennsylvania Station in New York City to the Hempstead station, which is less than two miles from Hofstra’s campus.
Take the Long Island Railroad East on the Hempstead Branch to the final stop "Hempstead." Depending on the day and time, a complimentary blue Hofstra bus may be waiting at the station to take visitors and students to the Hofstra campus. The bus makes several stops on campus. Otherwise, just take a taxi for a short 5-minute trip to the Hofstra campus.

Me and others from my team want to go too. Maybe we can get one of our faculty members who owns a van to drive us up there. Or we can squeeze into my moms car which is what people from my team we already planning on doing. Or we could all just head up together using public transportation.

Since Long Island is just 2 days away, I want to say good luck to all the teams participating. Hopefully it'll be a great time :D See yall Thursday!!!
