DrupalCampPDX 2008

We're a little amazed at the momentum surrounding this Saturday's Drupal Camp PDX 08. What started as a few rough ideas for collaborative seminars has now become a full day of content presented by at least 17 individuals from the Portland Drupal Group. But don't let an attempt at polish (or free meals) fool you, this event is still an informal, volunteer-run, community-sponsored collaboration. A few of us have put together a context, but it's up to everyone to fill it with great content.

Wait List and Un-Registering

• We are Full! Check the tweets on the right for up-to-date information. Right now 2 spots are available. If they go again, individuals can add themselves to the wait list. So far this has worked out nicely for everyone we went on the wait list.
• Please UN-register (log in and de-select your Registration) if you are not attending. Your spot will automatically be filled by a Wait-listed individual.
• Wait-Listed Individuals will be automatically notified by email if a spot becomes available.

Directions and Building Entry

• Directions to the Portland State Business Accelerator. It's a bit tricky to find, so it is advisable to bring a map with you, either a map book or print the map/s we provided, or print a map from your favorite mapping service that shows street names in the area.
• The main door has to be monitored/locked all day. If you are trying to enter at a time after registration, there will either be an individual at the door or a cell number to call.

Food and Goodies

• Sweet Looking T-shirts will be available for Sale (see below)
• Thanks to our Sponsors, Lunch and Dinner are provided (as well as beverages throughout the day)
• There are rumors of other giveaways (signed Professional Drupal Development Books, Starbucks Gift Cards) and freebies (drupal buttons), but I don't want to give too much away...

Evening Networking
We know Drupal Development (and Developers) are Hot right now, so we're hoping a lot of great connecting happens this Saturday. In order to not distract from the presentations, we've scheduled the evening specifically for networking.

• At 5pm, we are opening the doors to anyone NOT registered who wants to join the fun. Employers who aren't specifically interested in a day's worth of geek talk (just the geeks), this is especially for you.

Volunteers Need
One final, shameless request for pre and post event help. Yes, we could use a last minute hand or two.

• Help make it happen!

Lastly, a special thanks again to all our sponsors and organizers. Couldn't have done it without you.

Sincerely,
Drupal Camp PDX 08 Organizers
