Queen’s School of Computing was proud to host the Educational Computing Organization of Ontario’s (ECOO’s) annual East Regional Programming Contest for eastern Ontario high school students on Saturday, April 26th. The three-hour event was held in prestigious Wallace Hall, where thirteen teams from schools in Ottawa, Brockville, Kingston, and Belleville were charged with finding working – and correct – solutions to four challenging programming problems. Congratulations to the winners, Bell High School Team 1, from Ottawa. Thanks to School of Computing Organizer Richard Linley, to ECOO for its donation to the event, to Co-Ordinator Chris Kulenkamp from Prince Edward Collegiate Institute, to School of Computing staff members Lynda Moulton and Irene LaFleche for organizing the food and venue, respectively, to the invaluable student volunteers at the event, Andrew MacDougall, Mitch Mullings, James Peng, and Christian Gilberg, to all the participants and their teacher coaches, and to Dave for his usual sterling job behind the camera lens.
