Read more"Introduction to CiviCRM" training May 6th
Hi folks,
The first DC CiviCRM Meetup this past Wednesday had a great showing. We had over 25 people who came out to talk about the system, where it is going, and how various organizations are implementing the CRM.
We discussed the need for both training and networking sessions, and have decided to hold two Meetups each month. In two weeks, on May 6th at 6:30pm, we will hold an "Introduction to CiviCRM" session. We are still looking for a location to hold this session, so please send me any recommendations on conference rooms we can use that can seat about 30 people.

Hi folks,
Just a quick reminder that the DC CiviCRM Meetup will hold it's first meeting this Wednesday, April 22nd from 6:30pm to 8:00pm at The Black Squirrel in Adams Morgan. We will have a Speed Show and Tell, giving each presenter 5 minutes to give a visual or spoken presentation about what they are doing with CiviCRM. This is a great opportunity to come
out and learn about the CiviCRM project, how people are using the system within their organizations, and meet other CiviCRM users and developers in the DC/VA/MD area. If you would like to present, please come prepared with a laptop.
Drupal Designers and Developers needed for THE grassroots website for Gay and Lesbian Equal Rights
We are currently developing "Equality Central" with the goal of establishing a clearinghouse for all events, organizations, campaigns, resources for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) equal rights and justice movement. We have "buy-in" from major grassroots organizations in California and have built a beta website. We need Drupal developers and designers who can help develop the website. We are focusing on California, but this could become the national, grassroots hub for LGBTQ activism.
Please let me know if you are interested.
