Get Cozy With OSM US Swag

It's getting chilly outside - which means it's time to grab a warm beverage, a cozy blanket, and settle in for a mappy holiday season. 

We're ready for the snow with our winter collection at the OpenStreetMap US swag store


Get yours (and a few gifts) today! Be sure to tweet us @OpenStreetMapUS with pic of your gift. 

There's still time to map for 30 Days of OpenStreetMap 
30 Days of OpenStreetMap is almost over, but you can still join the fun! 
Follow @OpenStreetMapUS on twitter for the daily task or check the 30 Days of OSM wiki page. Add #30daysofOSM to your changeset to track your edits and you might win a prize.

Have you tried the new OSM Welcome Tool? It's now easy to welcome mappers in your area thanks to OSM Belgium and the LCCWG. Kansas, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, and Washington mapping communities have already set up local regions. Learn more about the tool and how to add your area here
