December Tri-Cities Drupal Meeting
Last Tri-Cities meeting of the year is coming up. We will be taking a look at Drush, and SASS. This should be a great way to finish out 2011 and take us in to the new year.
I hope to see everyone there. I will get a new flyer posted for those of you who can hang them about to draw in more Drupal enthusiasts.
Till then,

The Drupal 7 Theme System - Part 2 (Module templates)
For our November meeting we'll resume our three part series on the Drupal 7 theme system.
Part Two features an in-depth look at module templates, with a focus on the Views module. In other words, how you can leverage, modify and enhance theming elements that are derived from templates provided in core and/or contributed modules.
Read moreThe Drupal Theme System - Part 1
For Fall we're getting back into some monthly meetings, and we're kicking things off with a three part series that will take an in-depth look at theme development with Drupal's theming system. We'll begin with more introductory concepts and then moved to a more advanced direction over the next two months.
Part One, for October, will introduce Drupal's theme system (in Drupal 7), the fundamental components, templates and variables; working with regions; and creating subthemes.

Read moreJuly Chattanooga Drupal Meetup - 12th July 2011
This months meetup will be "Building an eCommerce site in 2 hours".
That's right, from nothing to accepting credit cards in 2 hours. Cart, Checkout, everything. Even reports.
I will use Drupal Gardens (http://www.drupalgardens.com), and Cashie (http://www.cashie.biz).
I will also build this site without writing a single line of code.
It is intended as a follow along, hands on, session. At the end of it, everyone will have a working eCommerce site running on Drupal Gardens. This is a real tangible thing you can sell to clients. You can thank me later.

After a great Drupal Camp Nashville, I see there is a Drupal Camp Asheville coming up http://www.drupalcampasheville.com/ soon.
I should be able to go to this, wrangling it with the wife right now.
Sign up on the site for more info as it becomes available.
Anyone else interested?
As an aside, Drupal Camp Boone will not be happening this year, which is a shame, I really enjoyed last years event (and it was also my 1st ever Drupal Camp). So Asheville may be the only other one close (ish) by to us for a while.

Sorry for the last minute notification.
I'm under the gun for work related deliveries, I had hoped to be able to run the session tonight, but I'm now unable to.
It's a bit last minute to drop this on someone else, so we'll just have to cancel this months meeting.
Next month we will go back to normal.
Sorry guys.

We have a location for this Tuesdays meetup.
The Company Lab (www.colab.is) are lending us their 'pit'. They have a Springboard event that evening in the conference room they have there, but are letting us use the other area. So we'll need to keep the noise down.

Go North on Rosville Avenue from East Main street, and park in the grey gravel lined lot on the left.
