Interest in module developers training
I have been contemplating this idea for awhile, but I was wondering if there was any interest in our immediate area for an intro module developers training session.
I would be willing to run it but I would need to find a venue, I can only fit 4 people in my living room :)
Let me know. I think this would be a great opportunity for all!

Drupalcon Denver?
Update: This is happening, Drupalcon Denver will be March 19-23 2012 in Denver Colorado! http://denver2012.drupal.org
A few weeks ago the Drupalcon North America organizing committee did a survey to gauge community interest on where to hold Drupalcons for 2012. One of the items on the list was Denver, but we never really had much discussion of it here in these Colorado groups.
So, what do folks think?

August Meeting. Mike Potter gave a very insightful talk about usability for the non-technical end user and the use of the Drupal module Nodes In Block: http://drupalmodules.com/module/nodes-in-block There was so many side conversations going on that it was impossible to document everything covered. If you're anywhere in southern Colorado, you miss a great deal of valuable information if you're not here.

July Meeting. July was another unique meeting. The meeting started with Cheryl Morton in the driver's seat with 15 or so Drupal folks as back seat drivers. (Thanks for your patience with us, Cheryl.) Cheryl was at her computer and various Drupal developers and designers talked her through setting up her first Drupal site. As several folks teamed up with Cheryl to further customize her new site, 3 or 4 discussions were spawned on a wide variety of Drupal development and design topics.
August Meeting. Mike Potter has graciously volunteered to give an interesting presentation:

We had an amazing time at the camp this year, but there were a lot of folks missing. Whether it was people from previous years who couldn't make it, or new members we want to hear your opinion!
We do a survey for the people who show up, but that just leads us to make the event more and more like they want it. What about the opinion of people who didn't make it? Please, fill in this survey so we know what we can do to make the camp appeal more to you for next year.
Thanks!

June Meeting. No doubt that the highlight of June's meeting was the kickoff "bring your problems and we'll solve them" session. We just eased into the latest and best of Drupal and the web in general. Just too much to list here. You just gotta come!
July Meeting. No doubt that our July meeting will be all about sharing the best of what we learned in and outside of the sessions at DrupalCamp Colorado. Didn't make all the sessions you wanted? Didn't hit both days? Our meeting will help take up the slack.

DrupalCamp Colorado Accomodations
A couple people at the last SCUG Meetup mentioned getting rooms in Denver for DrupalCamp. I'm checking to see if any hotels offer group rates. In order to get a group rate, a contract needs to be signed for a certain number of rooms regardless of whether or not they get booked. So I wanted to see if anyone is even interested before talking further with the hotels.
Is anyone planning on getting a room?
If so, for Friday, Saturday or both? Have you already made reservations?

June Southern Colorado Drupal Users Group
May Meeting. Wow. If you missed our May meeting, you missed a lot. (Sorry, Mike.) We very much appreciate the Association of Graduates of the United States Air Force Academy for allowing us to have our monthly meeting in their wonderful facility. The group shared technical, design and introductory Drupal information from Drupalcon 2010 in San Fransisco. Not quite as good as being there, but close.
June Meeting. We have several agenda items for our June meeting:
