Challenge your mind at the 10th Annual USA Memory Championships on Saturday, March 10, 2007 NYC. A good friend and colleague of mine, Tony Dottino, started this event in 1998. This event will be held from 9AM-5PM at:

Con Edison Auditorium

At the USA Memory Championship, “Mental Athletes” compete in brain-breaking events including the memorization of a string of 1,000 random digits, two decks of shuffled cards, 99 names and faces, 100 spoken words and an unpublished 50-line poem. In this tournament, challengers from from around the country vie for the title of “USA National Memory Champion”. High school teams are competing to become the High School Team Memory Champ.
