This is the first New York CiviCRM Meetup. Come meet others from the New York area who are interested in, using or developing for CiviCRM. We will have a presentation from an organization using CiviCRM locally and have an open question and answer session. Lobo will be in NYC and will help host/facilitate this meeting.
