From dying@leland.stanford.edu Fri Apr 4 05:59:09 2003 Date: Fri, 04 Apr 2003 05:59:09 PST From: dying@leland.stanford.edu To: SUMO Mailing List Cc: dying@leland.stanford.edu Subject: SFBA ARML 2003 Coaching For those of you who don't know, ARML stands for American Regions Mathematics League, an annual national high school mathematics competition that is held at three sites almost simultaneously, with the west coast site being at San Jose State University. We will be helping out the San Francisco Bay Area (SFBA) team, which has traditionally done very well in the competition, haven taken first in the nation in 1996, 1999, 2000, and 2001. Practices this year will be held at Stanford in the Math Building every Sunday afternoon in April and May, beginning this Sunday 2003.04.06 and ending with Sunday 2003.05.25. We meet at 380-380c (the auditorium). Although the permanent meeting time has yet to be determined, the first practice will be from 1400h to 1700h. The permanent practice time will probably last for three hours in the afternoon. Of course, you don't have to stay for the whole time. We will also probably have an after-practice game session that should last around half an hour. The SFBA ARML team page is at: http://epgy.stanford.edu/arml/ If you are interested, various organizational details are distributed via a Yahoo! group, so it would also be a good idea to subscribe to the group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SFBA-ARML/join If you have the smallest desire to help out sometime, there is an SFBA ARML Coaches Yahoo Group that you should join. http://groups.yahoo.com/invite/SFBA-ARML-Coaches You may have to wait for approval before you are in the group. All this information is also on the SUMO ARML page: http://www.stanford.edu/group/sumo/arml/ Anyway, send me an e-mail to let me know if you're interested or if you have any questions or concerns. If you want to help out, there's no need to commit to all the practices, or even all the hours of one practice. Just let me know when you can help. Thanks! :) -- Donald
