To ensure that your submission is correct and that it is reviewed, please carefully read through all of the guidelines and instructions and Please, Please Submit Early! The submission website opens on November 3 and the submission deadline is not until January 14. That leaves more than two months for submissions which you should take advantage of.  If you wait until the very last minute to submit, you are more inclined to make errors on the submission or forget to add a participant or worse, you forget to finalize your submission.  PDW Chairs have a short period of time to check-in and review all of the submissions for their divisions before making a final decision. Any submission that is not finalized or didn’t follow all the proper guidelines will automatically NOT be reviewed.  So please submit early and allow yourself time to make any necessary corrections.  Thank you!
