Housekeeping:
-If it's your first time don't feel obligated to give a talk. However, it's a great way to connect with like-minded people and helps us get a better feel for your interests. If speaking isn't your thing, it's perfectly alright to just hang out and chat.
-Celis Brewery has agreed to host us on a monthly basis. While Celis will still be open to the public during the meetup, we will have use of the stage in the Beer Garden and will be able to play DC512 Radio during the meetup throughout the venue.
-WE AREN'T PAYING THE VENUE! They are sponsoring us, so please pay them back with kindness and be generous with your tips.
