# 🎤 Calling All AWS Enthusiasts! We Need YOU!

Hey Dallas AWS community! 👋
We're excited to announce that we're planning our next AWS User Group meetup, and we need amazing speakers and generous hosts to make it happen!

## 📢 Looking for Speakers

Whether you're just starting your AWS journey or you're a seasoned cloud architect, we want to hear from you! Our community thrives on diverse perspectives and experiences at every level.
Perfect for speakers who want to share:

• Lessons learned from cloud migrations
• Cool AWS services you've discovered
• Architecture patterns that worked (or didn't work!)
• Cost optimization tricks
• Security best practices
• Serverless adventures
• AI/ML experiments
• DevOps automation stories
• Or anything else AWS-related that excites you!

Speaking formats we love:

• 20-30 minute presentations
• Lightning talks (5-10 minutes)
• Panel discussions
• Live demos
• Show and tell sessions

Don't worry about being perfect - our community is supportive and loves learning from real-world experiences, successes, and even failures!

## 🏢 Looking for Hosts

We're also seeking awesome companies or organizations in the Dallas area who can provide:

• Meeting space for 30-50 people
• Basic AV setup (projector/screen)
• Parking availability
• Optional: snacks and drinks (always appreciated!)

Hosting is a great way to showcase your company culture and connect with local AWS talent!
