April DUG
Due to so many of our local folks being at DrupalCon, and me having a sick kiddo, I'm cancelling DUG tonight. Sorry for the late notice y'all.
I'm looking forward to the DrupalCon recap at Brewpal and next month's Dug.

Two tickets to DrupalCon Nashville for sale (for less than the early bird price)
Hello,
One of DebugAcademy.com 's alumni let me know she has tickets to DrupalCon which she can't use and asked if I knew anyone to sell them to. I figured posting here makes sense, especially given how much time is left until DrupalCon Nashville.
Let me know if you'd like to purchase them. Looking for $350 or best offer.
Posting this to multiple groups because it's equally relevant to most people. Please reach out ASAP if you're interested.

Brewpal takes place around 5-7pm at the Lucky Lab in NW Portland (1945 NW Quimby St, Portland, OR 97209). We meet, work on our projects, and ask questions of our neighbors with no formal agenda.
These meetups are for ALL levels of Drupal users. Come with your laptop, a project to work on and some questions. We'll learn a bit from each other and get some work done while having a beer! And, if you're not into beer, they have some solid food options.
