May Happy Hour at Lake Monster Brewing

FWIW.This is during DrupalCon New Orleans. Which means a lot of people will likely be in NOLA and not almost Minneapolis. Should we consider moving this to another day? Or, just be okay with the fact that attendance is likely to be small in May?

Doesn't make much difference to me. Mostly just wanted to point it out. Maybe we can have a NOLA contingent that attends via Skype. :P

I was hoping to make it to the Happy Hour this evening but sadly I can't make it down.

I thought I would pass this along to see if any in this group are looking for a new opportunity or know someone who is. Please contact me directly if you would like to learn more - david.frolick@northhighland.com / 612-272-5761.

Salary will be around $100K give or take
