*Why DrupalCamp:*
It's time for the 6th Annual DrupalCamp Chicago! Don't miss this 
opportunity to learn about the free, open-source web development 
platform from the experts. DrupalCamp brings people of all skill levels 
together for an educational experience featuring a relaxed, open 
environment, group brainstorms, industry networking, and of course, a 
great time.

DrupalCamp 2013 is hosted by the Chicago Drupal Meet Up Group (CDMUG), a 
local organization that meets in person to teach users and developers 
about the benefits of open-source software (specifically Drupal). In 
addition to regular meetups, CDMUG participates in the Drupal 
Association sponsored "Global Training Days". CDMUG builds bridges 
between non-profits/entrepreneurs and resourceful Drupal development 
companies, independent consultants, and hobbyists in the Chicago-land 
area. The day-long DrupalCamp offers a more intensive experience than 
the normal meet ups.

*After party at JBTV Studios:*
After a full day of Drupal, CDMUG invites attendees to kick back and 
enjoy the free trolley stocked with various beverages that will take 
them to an epic after party at JBTV Studios (jbtvonline.com). Many 
locals growing up in the area since 1985 will remember seeing Jerry 
Bryant on TV introducing the world to the hottest new bands (everything 
MTV should have been). Conference attendees have the chance to meet and 
hang out with Jerry himself at the after party!

*Not Only for Experts:*
Anyone can attend DrupalCamp and walk away with the training they 
desired. Multiple presentations will run simultaneously; geared to 
everyone from beginners and hobbyists to bloggers, sales teams, 
designers, advanced developers and more. People of all skill levels are 
welcome and laptops are encouraged.

*New User Training with Doug Vann:*
Drupal newbies are encouraged to hang out all day in the "New User 
Training Room" to work up close and personal with Drupal training expert 
Doug Vann. Doug has trained for NASA, major universities, as well as 
State, Local and Federal governments. This special training is included 
in the normal event registration fee, takes place at camp, and is 
normally valued at hundreds of dollars. Please notify us when 
registering if you plan to attend the Drupal training all day.

*Presentations:*
Drupal is all about community, so we need YOU! Share your knowledge, 
contribute to the community, and highlight your experience to others by 
submitting a session. Attendees are able to submit presentation sessions 
after purchasing a ticket and logging into the website.

(Chicago time)/

*Sponsorships Available:*

  * Silver - $500
  * Bronze - $350

community to meet and learn from each other at a DrupalCamp. Camps

of the open-source community.
