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.

Fraser Valley Group?
Well, I missed another Vancouver meeting, and it looks like I'll miss most of them. It's got me thinking that I'd like to pull together a somewhat regular meeting of Drupal users and developers for people who live in Langley, Surrey, and eastward. I don't have a lot of plans for it right now, but I'd like to gauge interest. So if you'd be interested in meeting once to talk about the idea, respond here and we'll make something happen.
Thanks,
Doug Gough

We started a Progressive politics blog a couple months ago, and its growing fast! (caught us off guard) We have come to the place where we are kind of stuck with the nuts and bolts of what we want to do to build it into more of a community.
We need some advice, and some guidance through some module additions, views and settings. We have managed thus far, but are now getting a bit frustrated with the more complex items.
