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

Dear Mindy,

  Please sign me up for the January 2022 Connect-a-thon. I will probably focus on profiles of the US Black Heritage Project.  My team is the Nor'easters. That should still work.  Thank you. -NGP
