Just a quick update to those of you who do not participate in the Twin Cities Drupal Slack channel. There are a couple of out of town events coming up that some of us will be attending and there may be ride share / room mate opportunities available to anyone else who wishes to come with.
MidCamp is happening in Chicago in a few weeks.
https://www.midcamp.org/
It would appear that there are at least 5-6 people who plan to drive to and from Chicago for Midcamp, so we will likely be taking two cars and would have room for more.

Just a reminder to folks that we are not having our monthly meetup/DUG/JAM this week because of the holidays.

Happy Holidays!
Read moreDecember Happy Hour ????
There was a little confusion about our meetup plans for December, so we never officially announced Happy Hour this month. However, it was posted on Meetup.com and some folks may just assume it's happening - so, I'm hanging out at BauHaus Brew Labs to have beers with any Drupal fans that show up. I expect at least a few others.
If you are in the area, come on by for a beer and a little Drupal talk.
See you soon.
