<p><strong>Why DrupalCamp:</strong><br>
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.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p><strong>After party at JBTV Studios:</strong><br>
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!<br>
</p>
<p><strong>Not Only for Experts:</strong><br>
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.</p>
<p><strong>New User Training with Doug Vann:</strong><br>
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.<br>
</p>
