August 21, 2014 | | Press Release
Chattanooga, TN --- Building on the success of last year’s camp, Chattanooga State will host the 2nd Annual Drupal Camp on Saturday, September 13 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Registration opens at 8 a.m. and costs $25 to attend. Included is a box lunch and afternoon snack.
Drupal is a free open-source content management system (CMS) written in PHP programming language. This event is an attendee-driven; completely volunteer initiative catered to everyone – curious beginners, designers, developers, and business owners.
The camp includes ‘Drupal in a Day’ training included in the ticket price, for anyone wanting to have a fast track to learn more about Drupal. Doug Vann, Drupal trainer to NASA, will present this training. Additionally, the four session tracks will include: Drupal for Beginners; Theming, Design and Usability; Development and Performance; and Drupal for Business and Services.
Although other sessions have been proposed, currently approved sessions include “Bootstrapify your site,” “How not to be a Git,” “Making your responsive site picture perfect,” and “Search API and Solr.”
Corporate sponsors include True North, Chattanooga State, CodeJourneymen, and Straight North. Individual sponsorships are available for an extra $20 and include registration and a t-shirt, as well as a ‘shout-out’ on the Drupal sponsor page.
This event can accommodate 150+ attendees. Camps frequently sell out or have waiting lists, so registering as soon as possible is highly recommended. Fees are only payable by credit card. For more information, or to register, visit www.drupalcampchattanooga.com.
