Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group (VanDUG) is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story.
The group mostly hangs out on Slack at https://vandug.slack.com/. We also post our meetings on Meetup.com at https://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Drupal-Users-Group. All are welcome, it's listed as a private group to keep out the griefers.
We've been holding semi-regular virtual meetings during COVID-19.

Calgary Open Source Systems Festival
Simple post to promote COSSFEST. Hopefully the Vancouver community can send people to Calgary. Any one wishing to speak contact Shawn Grover (sgrover@open2space.com). I'm already planning to do a site building presentation but given some volume I'm sure we can get a Drupal track going.

Read moreDrupal Intro Seminar?
I'm looking for an intro seminar. I use a Drupal site designed by a friend, and I would love to start skill building. If anyone can suggest a good intro, or if there's anyone out there who wants to trade lunch for an hour of Drupal-ness or barter acting coaching for Drupal lessons that would be rad. You can email me directly mbean@bizstudio.ca
Thanks!
