The opening of registration for the 2023 ANWG Conference is imminent!<\/p>\n
January 17,\u00a0 Tuesday,\u00a0 7 AM Pacific Standard Time<\/strong><\/p>\n New Information:<\/p>\n The Conference Package price is $395 and includes:<\/p>\n Liz Moncrief has canceled due to a family illness and her 3 seminars have been eliminated from the schedule.<\/p>\n A la carte registration begins March 27 for single purchases of seminars and evening event tickets.\u00a0 This is subject to availability.\u00a0 If events and classes are sold out, they will not be available.\u00a0 We do have limits on all aspects of the conference with the instructor maximums per class, facility space, etc.<\/p>\n A la carte pricing will be:<\/p>\n Janis Johnson, Registrar\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n We have created a new webpage with screenshots of the Registra<\/a>tion Pages<\/a> .\u00a0 Please review this information prior to beginning the pre-registration process.\u00a0<\/strong> You are now able to enter your personal information, set a simple password, and indicate your interest in activities and meetings from Jan. 10-15.\u00a0 January 17 is the first day you can purchase workshops and the conference package that includes 3 seminars and the evening events.<\/p>\n Some of the terms used in the registration system might seem odd for our purposes. The system we’re using is rsvpBOOK, and in its terminology: The little box at the bottom left corner of the screen allows you to save information without completing the registration. This includes all class selections you have made so far. Please complete those soon, preferably on the same day, or the holds will be removed.\u00a0 The system will give you 15 minutes to complete your registration<\/u>.\u00a0 Please save your information periodically through the process so you don\u2019t lose any classes if it does time out.\u00a0 You will be able to sign back in and complete your registration.\u00a0Please be sure to click on the complete registration button at the bottom of the page.<\/strong> After registering you will receive an email confirmation from events@rsvpbook.com<\/em><\/strong>. It includes a link to view your complete confirmation, and from there you can click a link to edit your registration without using a password.\u00a0 If you do not receive a confirmation, please contact the registrar<\/strong>.\u00a0 Check your junk or spam folders as this new email address may have landed there.\u00a0 The charge to your credit\/debit card will be identified as \u201cWeaving Guilds O, The Dalles\u201d.<\/p>\n Wait lists are a bit tricky with our four days of 1-2- and 3-day workshops and with four slots of half-day seminars. If you’re on the wait list for a session and a space has opened up, the registration system will move you into it and will remove sessions with timing conflicts, perhaps including some you want to keep. Contact the registrar for help if that happens.\u00a0 If you try and purchase a wait listed class, please move to your second choice as we don\u2019t anticipate many cancellations that would potentially open a seat.<\/p>\n We are encouraging everyone to go into the system between January 10-15 to enter your personal information, set your password, and sign up for meetings and activities you want to attend.\u00a0 It\u2019s helpful to use the planning worksheet<\/a> to plan your schedule for the week.\u00a0 This will save you time on the day you register between January 17 and March 19.\u00a0 The registration system will be closed for approx. 24 hours on January 16 before opening in the early morning of January 17.\u00a0 We will continue to add information to the FAQ\u2019s and Registration webpages as we discover more issues to notify attendees.<\/p>\n As the conference registrar I’m new to this and it’s possible I’ve made mistakes in setting up the online registration system. If you run into problems, please let me know right away so I can fix them or find a way to work around them. Send me an email at registrar@anwgconference2023.com<\/a> \u00a0and let me know the best way to get back to you.<\/p>\n We hope to see you at the 2023 Fiber Connections Conference in Bend June 11-17.<\/p>\n Stay updated<\/strong>\n
