What we’re about
A user group to meet and discuss the Go programming language (golang). Meetups are typically held on third Wednesdays at 6:30. We provide pizza and beer and will typically bring in a guest speaker to give a short talk on a feature of the language.
We are always open to new ideas to make our meetup even better! Please leave us feedback at this link.
Please read the Code of Conduct.

From golang.org:
The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more productive. Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed, interpreted language.
