The monthly Inland Empire Drupal meetup will be held on Thursday, July 7 from 7-8:45pm. This is a free event and everyone is invited - we have a large venue (seats 40+) so come on out and join us! If you'd like to follow along just bring your laptop / charger.

Location
HMC Architects - 3546 Concours Street, Ontario, CA 91764

We'll be meeting in the 1st floor training room. Come in the main entrance and look for the dark metal stairs - the training room is right below them (see interior photo below).

Agenda
- User to user support (install issues & misc Drupal discussions)
- Regional news / jobs
- Presentation - TBD. Suggestions?
- Lightning talks (things that matter to you - questions about Drupal, modules you've seen, tech that's important, etc)
- NEW we're adding a Drupal After Dark where we'll be going to a local Applebees for happy hour immediately following the meetup. Note the meetup is ending slightly earlier to accommodate this transition for those who have a long way to drive home.

NEW: the preferred signup method is our meetup page. Please RSVP at meetup.com or with the "sign up" button below so we have an accurate headcount . If you can't make it to this particular IE Drupal event there will be more on the 2nd Thursday of each month - see the IE Drupal homepage for details on what will be covered prior to the meetup.

Anyone interested in presenting at IE Drupal on July 7th? Post a comment.

The Drupal Afterdark should be a great addition to these meetups -- especially with the 9p happy hour pricing.

Thanks goes out to HMC for hosting these meetups and for Chris Grant for organizing. It is a very spacious conference room with their office located 5 minutes from Ontario Mills.

Hate to miss it!

Yep it's tonight. Technically we meet on the 2nd Thursday of the month but it turns out I can't read a calendar properly so the event has been posted for 2 or 3 weeks with tonight as the date.

So this month we're meeting tonight (7/7) and August will be our regular "2nd Thursday" meeting time. Looking forward to seeing you there!

There's a Starbucks (1041 Mlliken Ave & Concours) right next to the Applebees (for Afterdark). I'm working here for the afternoon. If anyone's early to the meetup, feel free to swing by.
