To help develop a comunity of drupal employers, workers and job seekers. I saw no group that existed, to help people who live in Minnesota. So I create this group, to help add to our support and help grow Drupal within Minnesota.
Thank You.

I am just passing along this announcement about an upcoming hack-a-thon in the Twin Cities - at the historic Union Depot. I will not be able to attend this hack-a-thon, but I have attended several similar events in the past and very much enjoyed them. I would attend if I could.
I would love to see Drupal better represented at local civic hacking events. This is a great opportunity for us to engage with other developers, learn about other technology and encourage the use of Drupal as a solution for important problems in our community.

Twin Cities Drupal Government People
I recently attended the Drupal4Gov BOF at DrupalCon Baltimore and was told that government folks are more likely to attend to Drupal events that have specific content targeted at them. Is this true?
I am curious if there are any government folks who use Drupal and would be interested in a 1/2 to full day Drupal 4 Government Summit at Twin Cities Drupal camp this year.
This is not an official announcement, just a probe to find out if there is any interest in the local community. This is something that I would be interest in facilitating, if there is sufficient interest.

Any other local Drupalists interested in attending GeoCode this weekend? This is part unconference and part hack-a-thon. Registration is free.
I will probably hack on a Drupal project I started with friends at least years GeoCode 2.0, feel to to join me.

I also plan on joining some of the unconference discussions. I would love to see more Drupal representation at some of the local civic tech events.

We just got pinged on Twitter from someone asking about dates for our 2017 Twin Cities Drupal Camp. But, we still haven't properly debriefed 2016 or even talked about dates for next year - let alone, whether or not there will be a camp in 2017?
:-)
Are we ready for that?
Who want to start working on Twin Cities Drupal Camp 2017?
Should we try to take some time at the JAM this month for that?
