WordPress Meetup: Summer picnic II

Update: due to bad weather forecast we will meet at Vltava next to the railway station.

The WordPress Helsinki Meetup group aims to bring together people of all skill levels, from beginners to WordPress professionals. WordPress Helsinki is purely organised by community volunteers, and operates under the WordPress code of conduct.

Come and meet like-minded WordPress people outside, as we will have a relaxed outdoor picnic in Kaisaniemi Park on August 7th!

This month’s agenda includes coming up with topics for future events, discussing potential speakers and venues for hosting talks and networking with members of the community.

We will try to set up camp somewhere close to the tennis courts and share a more detailed location once we find a spot for us. We are probably going to stay there for a while, so don’t worry if you are a bit late.

Bring some drinks & snacks (if you’d like to) and preferably something to sit on like a blanket.

In case of bad weather, we will meet at Vltava instead, a pub next to the railway station – we will send a message to everyone if that is the case.

If you have any questions, leave a comment or contact us directly through the contact form on Meetup.com. You can also find us on Twitter @WPHelsinki (https://twitter.com/WPHelsinki) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WPHelsinki/). If you prefer a more direct approach, you can find most of the community members on the #meetups-helsinki channel on Slack.

See you on Wednesday!
