<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Participate in the 33nd Annual Northwest GIS User Group Conference in Bremerton, Washington by sharing a poster, giving a presentation or showcasing an application. Presentations
typically consist of a 20 – 25 min talk, but if you don’t want to give a full-length presentation, consider a 5 minute lightning talk instead. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Do you have an application or poster that you want to share? The annual map (including story maps) and app contest is a great way to show off your work and to make contacts
with attendees who have similar interests. The event will follow both a traditional format with participants displaying a map or poster in the gallery for attendees to view and also a new approach of allowing folks with web, mobile apps and story maps to show
off their work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
