The event will start on Friday, January 14, at 8 AM (EST) and run until Monday, January 17, at 8 AM (EST).

Will you join us?

I don’t know if I actually registered and what to do this site is so confusing - i can’t post until I log in and when I do it takes me away from any posts and what I am doing :(
Yes, you signed up with the Canadian Team, and you should have your badge now.
Colleen, I suggest that while you are getting used to the site format and many capabilities that you open a different tab for searching for answers and looking g2g conversations. This way your work is open in a tab that won't change.
Sign me up for team Virginia.
This is not the sign up post for July2022

Hey, I was informed I should be Joining Nor'Easters instead of the Canadian Connectors as that's definitely more my locale! Can I change?
by Keenan Sutherland G2G4 (4.9k points)
Keenan, Nor'Easters covers the Eastern provinces of Canada, but you can work on any area when you are on any team.  Many people work on their own family or ones in their common region.  It is your choice.

Linda, co-captain of Nor'Easters
I'd love to change if possible!
