Registration for ChiliPLoP is handled electronically. After reviewing the current list of Hot Topics, you must email the group leader requesting permission to join that group.

Everyone who plans to attend ChiliPLoP must perform a two-step registration process. Step I involves filling out and submitting the registration form. Then, in Step II, you will be prompted to print out, fill in, and fax a credit card form to complete the registration. The credit card will be charged upon receipt.

Registration Instructions

At the Sky Harbor Airport a shuttle will be available to bring you to the hotel. However, the cost of this shuttle will be the participant's responsibility. Get driving directions to the retreat

Check in is Tuesday, after 15:00. If you arrive before check-in, you may be able to get into your room, if it is ready, but please don't count on this! Before the check-in time, you can stroll and eat lunch in the town of Carefree at your own expense. Shops and such are very close by.

For arrival flexibility on the first night, pizza will be available in the lower meeting room from 18:00 until 21:00. Please check the late arrival item if your flight arrives after 19:00 so we may better plan this first meal. Special arrangements must be made in advance if you expect to arrive at the LRC after 22:00 as the doors are locked at this time (allow an estimate of 90 minutes from your plane arrival time for baggage pick-up and the shuttle journey).

ChiliPLoP is "a different kind of PLoP." It is our intention to accommodate people in single rooms, but space is limited and some will have to share. If you bring a guest, or your family, we will set you up in a room with roll-away beds for the younger guests. Should you need more than one room, please advise the conference chair as soon as you can. Please indicate a room sharing preference if you have one, so we may make this as enjoyable for everyone involved.

If you have a World Wide Web homepage, or a page associated with your submission, indicate the URL for it in the WWW field.
