- In 2018 Q2 (and likely in future semesters), Bellm and Graham have programs for low-resolution spectroscopic follow-up with the 3.5m telescope at Apache Point Observatory. Typically our allocation will be 4-6 classically scheduled second-half nights per quarter, plus two ToO programs: one for young supernovae and one for relativistic transients. Target requests welcome by email and/or the GROWTH Marshal.

- At the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) P.Is. Jesper Sollerman, Ariel Goobar, Francesco Taddia have a program for ToO observation (optical spectra and imaging wth ALFOSC, high-res spectra for bright SNe with FIES) of core-collapse and thermonuclear supernovae. The program is called "Supernova Target-of-Opportunity from the Zwicky Transient Facility". Soft ToO observations are possible during during Nordic and Service nights, hard ToO observations are possible every night (except during Spanish time) when ALFOSC is mounted. A total of 70 hrs are available beween Octorber 2017 and April 2018. Here the schedule of the telescope until April 2018: http://www.not.iac.es/observing/schedules/schedule.php?period=56&output=html
 . A new application for the same program between April 2018 and September 2019 will be submitted before November 17 2017. Contact person: Francesco Taddia, ftadd@astro.su.se.

- At the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) P.I. F .Taddia has a program for follow-up observation (optical spectra and imaging with DOLORES) of core-collapse supernovae. Te program is called "Observing supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility with the TNG". A total of 30 hrs distributed over 10 nights are available beween Octorber 2017 and April 2018. Here the schedule of the telescope until April 2018: http://www.tng.iac.es/observing/schedules/aot36/schedule.html. A new application for the same program between April 2018 and September 2019 will be submitted before November 17 2017. Contact person: Francesco Taddia, ftadd@astro.su.se.

- At the Gemini-N telescope P.I. Avishay Gal-Yam has a program for ToO observations of young transients from ZTF. 10h of band A ToO time is available per year. The expected mode of use would be optical spectroscopy using GMOS. Contact person: avishay.gal-yam@weizmann.ac.il

- ToO and classically scheduled spectroscopy on the 4.3 m Discovery Channel Telescope in Happy Jack, AZ. In terms of supernovae, this is predominantly dedicated for young supernovae and superluminous supernovae, though other sources can certainly be entertained.
