Central NJ (Princeton)

Due to popular demand, we will have a code sprint on the day following the upcoming DrupalCamp NJ on Sunday, February 5th. The sprint will focus primarily around Drupal 8 core issues, but obviously other sprint groups can form as well.

The exact location is TBD, but will be on the Princeton University campus, near to where the camp is being held, from 10 am to 5 pm. Please "Sign up" here if you plan to attend so we have an estimate of how much space we will need.

For the upcoming DrupalCamp NJ on February 4th, we need volunteers to help the day run smoothly.

Volunteer tasks include:

• Pre-registration setup
• Registration/info desk
• Room monitor/AV assistant
• Lunch herder
• Cleanup

Most of these tasks require no special experience, but for room monitors, you need to be able to attend a training on February 3rd at 2:30 pm on using the University A/V systems in the Friend center room 101 so that you can assist speakers as needed.

We will be meeting to further plan the camp logistics and discuss session selection this Thursday starting at 5 pm at the Lewis Library on the Princeton campus.

Lewis Library is located here: http://etcweb.princeton.edu/pumap/#630
How to get to Lewis room 245:
Enter the Lewis Library building through the main doors off of Ivy Lane.
Go left to the stairs or elevator.
Go up to the second floor (1/2 a flight).
Go down the hallway and turn down the first hallway on the right.

In two days, participants will be brought up to speed on Drupal and will be ready to tackle their own project. Learn how to manage media, build calendars and complex, dynamic queries of content by selecting and configuring the most popular modules.

This course is suitable both for users who are new to Drupal and those who want to broaden their Drupal skills. Participants will also review Drupal's block system and using taxonomy to categorize their content.

Get a solid introduction to Drupal in one day. Learn about the most essential features and concepts of Drupal through hands on activities. By the end of this day you will be familiar with Drupal terminology and be able to identify how many Drupal sites are constructed. You will know how to identify and choose modules to get the functionality you need. Because this class will be an overview and not an in-depth course, it is perfect for people who are on the fence about using Drupal or who are looking for a hands-on introduction.

Join us from 6 pm to 7 pm to volunteer and discuss planning for Drupal Camp NJ on February 4. Scheduled 1 hour before the meet up.
