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

Answer 1

I'm in and bringing the Cornbread Catchers.

Comments

WooHoo Debi! See you there!

---

Yay :) I want to work with Cornbread Catchers again

I saw your answer and I'm sure that Mindy will be responding to you the next time she works on Thon stuff

---

Great Alicia - thanks for joining in on the fun!

---

I want to work with the cornbread catchers im from asheville,NC

---

Brittany, you need to answer for yourself, not reply to someone else's answer as that won't count for registration.  Just scroll up a little way and click that big Answer this post button and say there that you want the Cornbread Catchers.

---

Hi Brittany. We would love to have you on Team Cornbread Catchers with us.

To make it official, look just above what I posted and find the "Answer this post" link that is in the black box. Click that. It will open an answer box. All you have to say is that you want to be on Team Cornbread Catchers and click "Add Answer." Both Mindy and I will reply to you. You need to do it before midnight Eastern Time. That is when registration ends.
