Those who will be participating in Okinawa will need to register for the convention. The deadline for participant registration is Friday, October 7, at 8:00 a.m. The information session will cover the latest information on travel visas, smartphone requirements in Japan, the North American Okinawan Association uniform (shirt), participating in the international parade, mini tours and gatherings planned by the OAA, and most importantly, information that changes daily. Those who will be participating in the convention as a member of the North American Okinawan Association are strongly encouraged to attend the information session. The OAA will not handle issues regarding travel arrangements, but current OAA members can receive support and registration assistance. We also encourage you to check the official convention website for the latest information: wuf2022.com (multilingual)
