User group meeting

We're teaming up with Lullabot on Friday, January 21st and we're having a night of fun and collaboration during Webchick's Drupal 7 Tour in Los Angeles!

Would you like to be a sponsor?

There is a $85 bartender fee if we are to have a cash bar. If you or your company would like to sponsor this event, please contact Christefano.

Thank you!

I've updated the original post with the venue information. We're meeting at the Four Points by Sheraton near the Los Angeles International Airport. This is the same venue as the Drupal 7 Tour: Los Angeles event.

We're also looking for an event sponsor. If we are to have a cash bar, there is an $85 bartender fee. If you or your company would like to sponsor this event, please contact the LA Drupal managers. Thanks!

Christo, what's the rough

wizonesolutions's picture

Christo, what's the rough agenda for the get-together? Is it just a social event or will there be some presentations/lightning talks/etc.? The description mentions collaboration so I'm guessing so, but a bit more info on that - if you have it - would be great! (just cuz it's a bit of a drive for me)

The agenda is whatever you'd like it to be!

I'm happy to follow any of the suggestions in the Drupal 7 Release Party Guide:

Cool, +1 for a genius bar!

Cool, +1 for a genius bar! What about a code sprint? Or upgrade ladrupal.org to d7 for fun? :)

Forgot to ask about parking

BTMash's picture

I kept thinking on it but slipped my mind by the time I got to GDO. How much is parking at Four Points and is there any other recommended parking in the area?

I just got off the phone with

christefano's picture

I just got off the phone with the front desk and parking for us is $10 (discounted from the regular $16).

Discounted parking

Cool! Is the discount some kind of validation (after parking)?
