Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group (VanDUG) is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story.
The group mostly hangs out on Slack at https://vandug.slack.com/. We also post our meetings on Meetup.com at https://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Drupal-Users-Group. All are welcome, it's listed as a private group to keep out the griefers.
We've been holding semi-regular virtual meetings during COVID-19.

Look for us at the right hand side of the restaurant where the tables are.

Will do so in the next few days.

Surrey Drupal Users Group – 1st Meeting on May 22nd, 2008
Our inaugural meeting was well attended and turned out to be a social gathering. Dale, who organized the Vancouver Drupal Users Group, graced us with his presence and gave us his blessing. Experienced website-builder but Drupal-newbie, Katy, asked lots of questions and is always thrilled to discover how much is NOT built-in to Drupal. Katy assumed that Drupal came with full blog capability for the single-user when the blog module is enabled. But unfortunately, that is not the case. One needs to use views to set up the archiving and the tag fields and other wonderful blog features. Experienced Drupallers, Joe and Dale, were helpful in offering tips on setting up a blog in Drupal. Would anyone like to give a short presentation on how to use Views to set up a single-user blog at our next meeting? I would really appreciate it. I’m sure others would, too.

I was wondering who from Vancouver is heading to Seattle, and what hotel/motel/inn you might be staying at.
Thanks
