We will be meeting next Wednesday the 4th of April at the Riverstone. If you plan on attending RSVP to me at manager@flashcalgary.org so I have an idea of how many people plan on attending. If you plan on joining us and you have not yet met me or if you can’t remember what I look like, please send me an email before Wednesday so I can give you my cell phone number. This way you can avoid having to ask every single person at the Riverstone if they are the Flash User Group and I can tell you exactly where we are sitting.
With the recent release of CS3 I will soon be giving away a free copy to one of our members. I’m not sure if it will be at this meeting or the next, but members who have attended more meetings will have greater odds of winning.
If you think you have a better idea than having our meetings at the Riverstone please let me know and we can possibly give it a try for our next meeting in May.
Date: Wednesday April 4th 2007
Time: 7:00 pm
Location: Riverstone Pub
