The goal of DrupalCamp is for all skill levels to learn, share

What is Drupal?
Drupal is a free, community-built, website content management system. It 
powers many highly scalable and dynamic sites today including 
grammy.com, builtinchicago.org, and whitehouse.gov. Drupal's modular 
architecture and vast open source community make it one of the most 
effective platforms for organizations of all types whether non-profit, 
government, education, small businesses, or Fortune 500 companies. 
Drupal has a proven history, is highly regarded as one of the best 
website frameworks available, and is rapidly gaining adoption all over 
the globe.

What is DrupalCamp?
For more than six years the Chicago Drupal Meet Up Group has highlighted 
the benefits of an open source initiative. We have built bridges between 
nonprofits/entrepreneurs and resourceful Drupal development companies, 
independent consultants, hobbyists in the Chicago-land area.

The day-long DrupalCamp allows for a more intensive hands-on focus than 
our normal monthly meet-ups. DrupalCamp brings everyone of all skill 
levels together from all over the midwest for an open, educational, fun, 
and relaxed forum for industry networking, training, and communication.

Do I need to be an expert?
An attendee-driven format with an array of resources available makes 
this event unique. Multiple presentations will run simultaneously—geared 
to everyone from beginners, to hobbyists, to bloggers, to sales teams, 
to advanced developers. People of all skill levels are welcome and 
laptops are encouraged. Need help with a problem, looking for work, or 
looking to hire Drupal talent? You can find someone with a solution at 
DrupalCamp Chicago.

How are the presentations organized?
We're proud to announce that 4 presentation tracks will be running at 
the same time with an additional room dedicated to Birds of a Feature 
(BoF) discussions. Topics will range from responsive design with Drupal 
to integrating Drupal with Salesforce and everything in between. Also, 
an entire room will be dedicated to helping new users learn Drupal. 
Attending DrupalCamp Chicago will be a great time for all interests and 
skill levels. View our awesome schedule of presentations @

What's this I hear about an after-party?
Attendees are welcome to hang out after presentations at our after-party 
with craft beers, food, and room for everyone. We've reserved the 
UChicago Pub in the basement of Ida Noyes Hall at 1212 East 59th Street, 
a short 3 block walk from International House. We've taken care of 
admission fees, so be sure to keep your name tag to show at the door.
