What does getting ready for Ocean Day look like?
May 6 at 5 PM: For people in Sacramento the night before the big day, we'll meet up at thirty four cantina for an informal hangout and the chance to meet each other. This is a no-host bar, come if you're around!
First week of May - teams will receive email communications from their team lead about the opportunity to meet up via zoom and learn more about how to prepare for your lobby meetings.
RSVP is required so that you can be put into a lobby team and coordinate together the week before the event.
