You CAN Do the Rubik's Cube Contest

Join the fun! All schools, after school, and other "Not for Profit" community youth organizations in the Greater Washington DC area (including Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia) serving ages K-12 can participate. We currently have 37 teams registered for the competition and we have registrants in all 3 divisions - Elementary, Middle and High Schools. Our goal is to have 100+ teams!

The Tournament will consist of teams of eight students in grades K-12 plus a teacher/coach, divided into 3 divisions as follows:
Div 1 - Elementary Grades K-5;
Div 2 - Middle School Grades 6-8;
Div 3 - High School Grades 9-12.
The teams will be competing to collectively solve 25 Rubik's Cubes.
All teams will compete in a Preliminary Tournament to be held on Thursday, April 26, 2012. The top six teams in each division will advance to the Grand Final to be held on Saturday, April 28, 2012, as part of the USA Science & Engineering Festival Expo. The Final will be followed by the Awards Ceremony.

Just out! The new Rubik's Cube Mosaic Builder Guide which shows teachers/youth directors how to use Rubik's Cubes as pixels to create art. The folks from You Can Do the Rubic's Cube will create a mosaic at the Expo with the help of San Francisco artist Pete Fecteau who created a 4,242 Rubik's Cube mosaic of Martin Luther King.
