What we’re about
Meet with others in your local area interested in building and strengthening the Drupal Community. Discuss Drupal-related news, topics, tools, tricks, and tips - or just socialize with like-minded people!
Our Meetings are open to anyone interested in developing and operating sustainable websites and applications. Our focus will be to offer opportunities for our group members grow their understanding and appreciation of the Drupal framework and create a cooperative community in the far western suburbs of Chicago.
