Are there any Drupal groups in Chicago's north suburbs? Is anyone in the Chicago group located in the north suburbs? I am an experienced designer and site builder (not a developer) and would love to meet other people doing Drupal in my area.

Thanks! Fox Valley is too far away for me, but I'll keep NW suburbs in mind.

Evanston, too

Also, http://www.meetup.com/Chicago-Area-Drupal-User-Group/ has a monthly sprint here at Breakthrough in Evanston (not sure if that's far enough north for you). CADUG also has its regular meeting at our offices in Evanston about once every 5-6 months.
Hope to see you around,
Luke

Thanks! I'm quite a bit

Thanks! I'm quite a bit farther north, but it's easier for me to get to Evanston than downtown after work. I'll keep it in mind.

Hi, I am close to Evanston.

Depending on HOW far north

Depending on HOW far north you are, you may want to checkout the Milwaukee Meetup Group! :-) Evanston/Breakthrough is probably your best bet, but if you're interested in starting something further north, let CADUG know and we will be happy to help.

Haha, not quite that far

Haha, not quite that far north! I'm in Lake Bluff. I was hoping to flush out any Drupalers in, say, Highland Park, Deerfield, Lake Forest, Libertyville, Waukegan, Gurnee ...

I'd consider starting something if there was any interest.

Have meetup, will travel

I'm in Highland Park, but have attended Drupal meetups in Geneva (Fox Valley Drupal), Schaumburg (NW Drupal), Milwaukee (414 Drupal), and the traveling CADUG. Topic and weather determine if I travel the distance. Milwaukee often has remote via Hangouts.
