I have been in contact with Lauren Hall who is a part of the Cornell Club of Washington, and she is looking for a volunteer to organize a gathering for the viewing of Cornell vs. Clarkson game on 1/28 in the DC area.
Would anyone here be interested? If so, please email her at ccwprogramming@yahoo.com.
Thanks.
E-mail sent, as I'm now a DC Young Alumni. Too bad the closest ECAC and DI hockey to here (I think) is Princeton.

A Princeton trip for we DC'ers would be fun. I'm going up with my daughter, if I can get tickets.
Jon and I, and possibly a few other Lynah Faithful in the area are planning on making the Princeton trip. That'll be great if something for the Clarkson game gets set up. The gathering for the Lynah East game last year was lots of fun.
Princeton's Rink + Getting Tickets = Not a problem.
I wasn't around during the Florida games, but from the thread there it seems like they had a watching party at Grand Slam Sports Bar. I haven't heard back from Lauren yet, but if I am putting something together, I'll get in touch with the poster to see how that worked out.
So I'm organizing a watch party of the Cornell Clarkson game. As you know if you are reading this post, the game is on Friday, January 27th, at 7pm. Just wanted to give people on the forum a heads up that we will be having the party. It will most likely be at the Grand Slam Sports Bar. I'll post more detailed information soon, as it becomes available. If you are in the DC area, I'm looking forward to seeing you there.

Just thought I'd bump this to see what's going on. I'm definitely interested in watching the game on TV (as are some non-Cornell alums I work with).
Are people set on going to Grand Slam? It was a great place to watch the BC game and I'm sure will be great for the Clarkson game.
I am surprised that Rich hasn't chimed in that the Clarkson Alumni Assn will also be at the Grand Slam. http://clarksonalumni.com/hockey_telecast/
Cornell Big Red Hockey
vs. Clarkson
Friday, January 28th
7:30 - 10:30
Grand Slam Sports Bar @ The Grand Hyatt
1000 H Street NW, Washington DC
Join fellow Cornellians as we gather together and cheer on the Cornell Big Red Men’s Ice Hockey team. The game will be televised live from Lynah Rink and this is the one and only place to watch the game if you’re in the Washington DC area and the only way to spend/start your Friday evening. The game starts at 8:00 PM. Bust out your Cornell gear, come out with all the Cornell people you know, and meet some new ones. Drink specials TBA. This great sports bar is located in the heart of downtown (Metro Center stop). Walk-ins strongly encouraged, but if you know you will attend, please RSVP to Josh jbn6@cornell.edu in order to give us an idea of how many people to expect. Lets Go Red!
I thought the game started at 7pm (not 7:30p). Thanks for organizing!
Since the game is being broadcasted on CSTV, the actual start time is 8pm. See also the discussion in the NYC watch party thread:
"So I just spoke to the Cornell athletics office and they've confirmed 8:00 "
Anyway, a bunch of us will be there, so Let's Go Red!
Bump. A reminder post for anyone looking, and also I have the drink special to announce. See everyone tomorrow...
