Hello OrlandoJUG folks!
Join us for an Open Spaces meeting this month, hosted by your JUG Leader, Mike. Open Spaces is a style of meeting in which everyone gets the chance to contribute. Mike has had many meaningful and enjoyable experiences over the years both leading and participating in Open Spaces meetings.
This will be a pot luck dinner style meeting with sponsors Cambridge Web Design, www.cambridgeweb.ie and another sponsor TBA. So, please bring a tasty dish and or beverage if you can. Don't worry if you can't bring anything. Just bring some energy to participate and an appetite.
Please RSVP here on this event announcement (you must be a Codetown member to see the RSVP option here, otherwise it's invisible!)
And, please help us by spreading the word about these meetings, and invite some friends. The Codetown invite feature us a great way to spread the word. Also, be sure to join the OrlandoJUG group here on Codetown to be notified about all the OrlandoJUG activities.
Here is a description of Open Spaces style meeting coordination: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Space_Technology
We will eat potluck goodies and visit from 6-7PM and have the Open Spaces meeting from 7-8 or 9pm.
As always, I hope to see you there!
All the best,
Mike Levin
OrlandoJUG Chairman
