Hey all,

I'm thinking of starting a Drupal meetup in Greenville, SC. It would either be the Saturday before Greenville Grok (April 25th) or the day after Grok (May 2nd). I'd do it earlier but the 25th is literally the first Saturday I have free.

Is there any interest? I mean, I can hang out all by my lonesome somewhere and talk Drupal with myself, but I think it'd be more fun with more people.

We had a great meet-up last night at the library in Columbia. We had 8 attendees, including two first-timers.

Software Specialists, (softwarespecialists.com), has agreed to purchase pizza for the group once we get to 10 attendees. Hopefully we'll accomplish this at our next meeting, May 10, 6:00 pm, in the Bank of America room at Richland County Public Library.

I've created an SC Drupal Group at meetup.com, meetup.com/SC-Drupal-Users-Group. Please sign-up there to stay informed about meetings.

For Drupal fans in the Lowcountry, I wanted to let you know that CHSDUG is alive and kicking. We started in December, mostly as a result of some discussions at Barcamp CHS last fall. We meet the first Tuesday of every month at Rehava in North Charleston. We are partnering with Charleston Coworking and just tacking an organic group onto their website for now. You can join CHSDUG or post on our forum here: http://chscowork.org/forum.

We're still very fledgling so any advice on marketing this thing and getting speakers would be great. I'm also interested in hearing from Lowcountry Drupalers on what topics you want to hear about, or if you're interested in doing a presentation yourself.
Thanks!

Nicholai
