Tennessee is home to several new and fledgling Drupal groups, often somewhat small and spread thin and widely throughout the state. The TN Drupal Group is here to help find and foster growth and awareness of these groups and help facilitate and fund their activities.
Casual members are also invited to join us as a resource for finding and reaching out to Drupal groups in Tennessee.
We have Drupal User Groups in Chattanooga and Knoxville. Nashville has revived with a brand new group, up and running. Their first Meetup is August 15. Lend them your support.
Start one of your own in TN and we'll help you.

We need volunteers!

Chattanooga Drupal Users Group Cancelled June 14th 2012
I'm sorry to say I've had to cancel this months meetup.
I was to present on Rules, but my wife is called out of town, and it's a bit late to grab a different speaker.
Also it's Riverbend this week too, which will make the downtown area just heaving with people - those of you who will blow off live music festivals for Drupal .....
http://www.riverbendfestival.com/
We will be back on for July 12th 2012, when I will present Rules.
