South Denver Drupal Meetup
A meeting of Drupal users from the south Denver metro area: Denver Tech Center, Lone Tree, Parker, Highlands Ranch ... you get the idea.
Drupal meet-ups are where members of the Drupal open source community gather to share knowledge, tips, and fellowship. We mostly look like web designers, web developers, user interface experts, mobile device application developers -- anyone with an interest in the Drupal open source content management platform.
We normally talk "triage" (what are you stuck on?) and "tips/tricks" (what new things have you learned, to share with others?).

Interest in presenting at the February DBUG meeting
Hey organizers,
Sorry if this isn't the right format for following up on James's call for presentation ideas last night, but there ain't no way I'm hopping on IRC. ;)
I'd be interested in presenting next week [edited: next "month"]. Not sure what might be of interest or what y'all have been talking about lately.
I could potentially present on a few things, such as:
- Digital Experience Management (DEM) tools and strategies in Drupal
- Native CRM in Drupal (with emphasis on RedHen CRM)
- Salesforce integration with Drupal
Call for Speakers: DrupalCamp Colorado Beginner Track
Hello Colorado. I'm organizing a beginner track for DrupalCamp Colorado in Denver later this year. Our goal is to make the event a great learning experience for people with little to no previous Drupal experience. This is your personal invitation to speak in this track. Yes you.
Because the topics are all beginner-level, this track is also a great opportunity for beginner speakers. Experienced speakers are available and excited to help you prepare over the months between now and the camp. If you've never spoken at a Drupal event before, this is the perfect place to get started.

Read moreHello and nice to meet you Colorado folks
Hey there, Colorado. My name is Sean Larkin. I'm the CEO and one of the founders of ThinkShout, Inc., a Drupal shop that serves the nonprofit sector. We write and maintain some modules and stuff, like the Salesforce Suite, RedHen CRM, the MailChimp module, and Entity Registration.
Most of our team is in Portland, OR. However, I just moved to Denver and look forward to getting to know some folks here in town. It's exciting to get to know another vibrant Drupal community!
That's about all I got. I'll see y'all at a meet-up soon, I hope.
Be well,
Sean Larkin

Drupal Contrib Ladder
We are SUPER excited to kickoff the Drupal Contrib Ladder meetup. Information about what we are trying to do with this can be found at https://groups.drupal.org/node/453903 but for the high level summary we are looking to help people get started in the Drupal Contrib space.
Whether you already know how to build a module or theme and are a contrib master, or you are just starting out getting your system setup, we are here to help. We also have modules ourselves that we are working on and this will allow us the time to focus on getting those updated and posted.
