Hi guys!

Nice to see a nor-cal group exists. :) Is there anyone out there in the greater Butte county area? The Humboldt meetings look really interesting and I'd love to see something like that happen in maybe Chico, Oroville, Paradise, or somewhere else within reasonable driving distance.

I'd be willing to get together with a bunch of Drupal Geeks to explore and share what we know! Anytime!

Let's get a group started

Let's get things rolling to do a meetup. I own a web development company in Chico and our team would love to join a gathering even if it starts out small.

What do you guys think?

I would participate. We went to the Sacramento Drupal Camp and since then we've been talking about starting one too. When were you thinking?

Sounds good to me

Even a small group would be nice. :)

July

Let's get something scheduled for July. Is there a day of the week or time that is best for you guys? I'm pretty flexible. We can event use my office if you would like a meeting place. I would help promote it too.

Thoughts?

July sounds good. Evenings

July sounds good. Evenings are best for me, and not the 1st week of the month. Other than that, my schedule's pretty flexible.

It should be interesting, I think, to see how many people come with a little promotion.

If you need any help...

I'm the current chair for the SacDUG but I grew up in Chico/Durham and I'm up there a lot. If you need anything let me know. It would be nice to have some Drupal Peeps up in my hometown. One suggestion that has helped us a bit was using Meetup as a secondary channel to groups.drupal.org.

Group

I just submitted a request to start a group page for Chico and Surrounding Butte County. That way we can move to that instead of a thread, get a meetup scheduled and start building our Drupal community in Chico/Butte County. I will let you know when they approve the group. This will be the link once approved:

Let me know what you guys think.

Great

I would join the Chico Butte County group. I'm a novice with Drupal (just getting started), working from home in Magalia.

We're starting a Chico group! I'd like to start meeting the first Wednesday evening of the month. If you're interested, or have any suggestions, let me know!

Also, the location is up in the air at the moment. It will definitely be in Chico, but we haven't decided on where. So any input about that would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds great except...

I'd love to join you, except you picked the one day a month I always have another meeting. Is the 1st Wednesday set in stone?

We're still deciding on tools

We're still deciding on tools let alone setting anything in stone. Would the 2nd Wednesday evening work? May 9th?

Should be fine

tlynnec's picture

As far as I know, that would be fine. Thanks!

Meeting space

Where should we have it in Chico?

I will look into reserving a room at a Round Table Pizza in Chico on the 2nd Wednesday. I can borrow a projector from work.

I can share what I know about the new features in Drush 5. If its more of a beginner group I can show how to quickly subtheme.

Drupal Chico!

There was supposed to be a Drupal Chico meeting tonight, but I dropped the ball on arranging a location.

If anyone is interested in a meeting this month let me know and we can reschedule. I did learn a neat trick with taxonomy menu & views that I wanted to share. :-D

Barring that, the next regularly scheduled meeting is July 11th.
