Monthly Drupal Meetup in Bloomington/Normal

Hey Everyone,

I am hosting a Drupal Meetup once a month in Bloomington/Normal.

The first meetup is this Tuesday the 26th at 6:30pm.

I plan to have it on the 4th Tuesday of each month as long as that works for most people.

Come one come all!

Last Call to Get Food at BU Drupal Camp

If you are interested in attending BU Drupal BootCamp on this Friday, May 2nd, 2008 and would like lunch to be provided (free), we need you to sign up by 4:00 pm CST at http://slane.bradley.edu/drupalbootcamp/. If you have particular dietary needs, please contact Steven Merrill or myself so that we can make sure there is something for you to eat.

This call is just for people who would like lunch provided. After this afternoon you can still sign up and attend the event -- we just can't guarantee there will be any food for you -- but campustown is literally just across the street and has a number of different (cheap) food options.

Thanks!

Brian

DrupalCamp CentralIL in May?

Hey Drupalers,

I was talking with some of Bradley's IT higher-ups as part of a portal project that my students are helping skin. Once mentioned that our university webmaster was looking at Drupal, and I immediately began to espouse the benefits of Drupal. (Several of the Slane College sites use Drupal, with several more on the way.)

I mentioned that I'd be willing to help them plan such an implementation, and then someone asked if I could show a few people around Drupal, and maybe do a little training.

In the spirit of the Drupal community, I asked if Bradley could instead sponsor a DrupalCamp. My contacts in IT seemed very receptive to the idea, and said that we could get some labs and some food. We also have a few local multimedia shops who might be able to sponsor anything else that was needed. Bradley has a wireless campus, A/V equipment, and nice labs.

January Meet up?

Are there people still interested in a Central IL DUG meet up in Peoria this month? It would need to be near the end of this month (After DrupalCampWI, at least) but I can arrange for a room at Bradley University if there's interest.

Steven Merrill and I were thinking that beyond just socializing we could cover more in-depth on the talk we're giving at DrupalCampWI about Druplash and Druplex (Drupal-powered Flash and Flex). Post back here with preferred times/dates and anything specific you want to hear about (or better yet, talk about).

Video games are also always an option.
