*Start making travel arrangements -- [https://resweb.passkey.com/Resweb.do?mode=welcome_ei_new&eventID=3294461 hotel rooms] are running out -- if your chapter has funds available.
 
*If needed, ask for funding by emailing [mailto:tin.zaw@owasp.org me] or [mailto:sarah.baso@owasp.org Sarah Baso], Administrator for the Chapter Committee.
 
*Start thinking what topics to discuss.
 
*Stay tuned to further emails and upcoming Wiki page.  
 
  
<br>A word about funding. While we wish we could fund every chapter leader, due to the limited amount of budget allocated for this event, we may not be able to fund 100% to all the requests. We will have a deadline for applying funding, and after that deadline, we will make funding decision in a fair and transparent manner. When you apply for funding, please highlight your past contributions to OWASP and your future plans for the local chapter and OWASP.
 
  
<br>We will try to have an option to participate, via Skype or Webex, for those who cannot make it.
