Tales from Drupal Camp San Diego aka SANDcamp

2012 is off to a great start with my 1st DrupalCamp trip taking me to SANDCamp. I was especially excited about this trip as I have never been to San Diego before. The weather was awesome and the camp was great. Below is a break down of what transpired.

Why I'm not going to DrupalCamp Indy 2011

Tomorrow is DrupalCamp Indy2011 but I won't be there.

I started the Indy Drupal Users Group in January of 2008, within a month of discovering that Drupal existed. I knew then that the Drupal Community was an active bunch that seemed to love to gather together as often as possible. 

Fast forward to today and I have been to 22 DrupalCamps in the last 36months, not to mention PHP meetups in two states, Local Drupal Group meetups in a couple states, Linux Fests, a Uniforum, DrupalCons, HackFests, Business Summits, Event Organizing Meetings, etc.

Where in the world is dougvann

OK. Based on emails, IRC chats, Facebook posts, and tweets, it seems that ppl are quite confused as to where I am in this country and what I'm doing these days. So here's the scoop.

TRAINING: Drupal 7 in a Day Fri. 8/12 Asheville NC

dougvann Acquia Training PartnerDig into the powerful tools that make Drupal 7 the most flexible and efficient way to get your website online. In this introductory, hands-on workshop, you'll learn your way around the latest release of this popular web content management system. You will take on key tasks for building and administering a Drupal site: creating and managing content, granting user permissions, expanding your site's capabilities with key modules, and more. Drupal lets you accomplish these essential steps without writing a line of code.

DrupalCamp South Carolina review then off to Microsoft Headquarters

DualCore at SELF2011 While my favorite part of the whole gig was the late Saturday night performance by the perennial nerdcore artist DualCore [pictured left], there was plenty of Drupal going on as well. Drush, Drush-make, Features, CiviCRM, Module development, Theming, Workbench, Aegir, and more were on board.  My beginner sessions garnered a nice crowd.

Presenting Five Hours of Beginner Sessions at DrupalCamp Asheville - Camp Number 10!

2 weeks ago was Drupal Camp Asheville in BEAUTIFUL North Carolina. It was my 10th camp this year and was by far the AWESOMEST town I've visited! The Camp took place at the Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College in downtown Asheville, NC. The facility was PERFECT. 

OpenCamp 2010 ROCKED!

Well, it happened again. For two days members of the popular Open Source platforms Drupal, Joomla, and WordPress got together to treat attendees to a marathon of training sessions. I would be remiss not to mention that there was also a small contingency of .net developers as well. Open Camp is the natural evolution from last year's successful WordCamp event which served only the Wordpress community. When the decision was made to have Dallas DrupalCamp join it was only natural to bring in the Joomla folks as well.

Growing Drupal Via DrupalCamps

If you follow me at all you know that I am a DrupalCamp Junkie. Right now I'm attending DrupalCamp Los Angeles. It's my 8th camp this year which average to one camp a month!

WHY!?!?
