Do you all have any recommendations on how to expedite this? What is the
current status of the large room and using it for events?
For background, this teacher origianally contacted info@sudoroom but never
got a response, and called the SR number today, slightly frantic. I think
it would be really awesome if we were able to help her out. This event
seems quite an incredible opportunity for young people.

Subject: Space use?
To: info(a)sudoroom.org
Hi Sudo Room!
I'm a teacher at Oakland Tech High, not far from you. I've organized a team
of students who are all taking part in the CyberPatriot info sec
competition. They're training really hard--and learning a lot--so that they
can enter the competition. We've run into a stumbling block, though--the
competition windows for reach round are always on a weekend, and the school
district has informed me that I can't use the school on the weekend without
paying.
We are a small group--me, our mentor, and about four students--and we need
space to compete once a month (with one month where we compete twice) for
about six hours on a Sunday afternoon.
Is there any way we can negotiate use of some space at a reasonable rate?
They're really excited about this, but I'm afraid we might not have a place
to meet and compete if I can't find a space we can afford.
Thanks so much for any consideration you can give to us, or any suggestions
for other locations we might try!
Best,
-Vivienne Pustell
