This month's Portland Drupal User Group will take place at Acquia (1120 NW Couch St #630)
On the second Wednesday of every month at a rotating location, come to the Portland Drupal User Group meetup to talk about Drupal and hear a few presentations.
This month, we will be reviewing the big announcements and exciting changes coming out of DrupalCon Seattle. This is our annual "what was cool at DrupalCon?" meetup, and it's always a lively discussion. We'll share links to the best videos and resources, and recap anyone's talk if they were a presenter.
For future months, we're looking for people to give talks. They could be 5 minutes or as long as about 45 minutes. If you're interested, find @timhare on Slack or talk to Tim during the meetup.
Our icebreaker question of the day will be "What is a trip you've had to take for work? Did it end up being what you expected?"
Pizza and socializing starting at 6pm followed by presentations starting at 6:30 pm. Following the meetup, we will head to a nearby pub for socializing.

Comments
Hey Group, I just noticed we
Hey Group, I just noticed we somehow had a typo on this meetup. I have changed the title and address so now all May meetups point to Acquia.
This month's meetup is Wednesday, May 8th , 6-8pm at Acquia (1120 NW Couch St #630). The elevators are usually open for us so there should be no complications once you get to the door for the building.
We had discussed trying to livestream the event, watch the #drupal-pdx Slack channel for the most up-to-date info, but there may be comments here as well.
