Registrants are requested to make sure the email w/link has arrived by the evening of June 18th. If the email does not arrive, please see “Troubleshooting” below.

The email w/link will be re-sent to all registrants about 1-2 hours prior to the event. NB: However, if it landed somewhere other than in your inbox upon registration, it will probably do the same later.
