EngineSummit 2012 - SD+LA

Parking structure (http://goo.gl/maps/A6Oo) will be down Hotel Way (map icon A) behind the three brownish buildings that look the same and we will be in the center building (map icon C) and they will validate.

May 2012 is going to be the best ExpressionEngine Meetup of all time!

Have we got something amazing for you this month. Thanks to PBS SoCal (http://www.pbssocal.org/), we are pulling together the San Diego EE Meetup (https://www.meetup.com/San-Diego-ExpressionEngine/) and the Los Angeles EE Meetup (https://www.meetup.com/ExpressionEngine-Los-Angeles) groups once again for Engine Summit 2012 (http://environmentsforhumans.com/2012/engine-summit/)! A full day of ExpressionEngine learning and fun!

Thanks to PBS SoCal and our own meetup sponsors, the cost this year's Engine Summit is absolutely FREE!

Since there is no cost to you, and thanks to PBS SoCal's amazing generosity, we would love you to make donations to PBS SoCal. $20 would not be hard and would be a wonderful way to say thank you. Please donate here (http://cl.ly/GF3u).

Last year (https://www.meetup.com/San-Diego-ExpressionEngine/events/20882431/) everyone had a really great time and this year it's looking like it will be even more exciting. But please only RSVP if you really plan on attending. We'll have the waiting list open as well and this will be first come first serve.

The show starts at 7am sharp on May the 29th, so make sure to grab a coffee and get there early. PBS So Cal will have breakfast on hand so don't eat first! Lunch will be provided by Mijingo (http://mijingo.com) and also the great team over at EngineHosting (http://www.enginehosting.com).
