Select the city you want to attend in, Click Register Now.
Select General Attendee, and then the type of attendee (your ‘job function’ so to speak — are you a developer, IT support, etc.)
You’ll have to give them you name, address, etc.
Note: I usually do get a call a couple of days before the meeting.
I don’t remember past that point, I don’t want to re-register…
I don’t remember anything tricky about it.
But at the end, I did get emailed confirmation – I think a day or 2 later.
You can also go back on there, and check and print the confirmation.

BRING the confirmation with you!
Supposedly you need the “Event Giveaway” code included on the confirmation!
You MUST attend the event to get the giveaway.
