What You Need to Know For This Year’s DrupalCamp Colorado

There is a lot that has happened in the months leading up to this year’s DrupalCamp Colorado, which is in just a couple short weeks! We are so excited to host an entire weekend of great training classes, speaker sessions, a keynote from Preston So and so much more! Below is a list of what we think you need to know before making your way to the Camp.

Promet Source, headquartered in Chicago, is excited to offer, “Drupal 8 Crash Course (for non-devs),” a training taking place on August 3rd at DrupalCamp Colorado. Promet Source loves Denver so much, they wanted to share their Fab Five spots to check out while you’re in town.

Another DrupalCon in the books and with Nashville being the most gracious of hosts, people from around the world joined in on everything Drupal. If you attended this year’s DrupalCon, making the trip across hundreds of miles of the Midwest from the colorful state of Colorado, then you know that Tennessee Hot Fried Chicken was not the only attraction that we know many of you sought. Of course, Nashville is Music City and we hope that between all of the sessions and great speakers, you had the chance to listen to and explore all of the history and music that Nashville has to offer.

Did you know that the word, “Drupal” is based on the Dutch word, “Druppel” which means drop? And in Colorado, we are all too familiar with the drops that pour from the sky during the spring months, but in terms of April showers and the amount of Drupal members pouring into Colorado Drupal related events and Drupal events around the world. In fact, next week is home to the largest Drupal-related event in North America:  DrupalCon.

Sometimes, instead of reading lines and lines of content, or for those of you who are programmers, instead of reading lines and lines of code, we need the key points broken down for us. In this technology age, many of us find it easier to read information about a process or an event if the information itself is in a fancy graphic, bulleted out in an easy-to-read list, or some other creative outlet that allows us to skim through the important information.

As the snow begins to melt, the temperatures begin to rise and the plants return in full bloom, the events revolving around our great Drupal community become more and more prevalent! If you are wondering which camps are when and when DrupalCon is this year, we are here to help you out. There are many places all over the web that you can get more information on your favorite Drupal events, whether that is right here on our DrupalCamp Colorado website, Drupical or your favorite social media platforms.

The excitement is mounting as we get closer to DrupalCamp Colorado. We know that we are months away but there is quite a lot to get done before the first of our August sessions get underway. Development on this website is ongoing and we look forward to building out the registration sections, session submissions area, easy sponsorship opportunities and more! This is why you should check back often, bookmark this website in your browser, and begin planning for your visit to this year’s camp.
