This month we are running late on getting the notice out!  However, this months meeting will be a social event, basically a chance to meet up and talk among the group at our favorite watering hole (Dilworth Neighborhood Grill).

Come down and meet up with the usual suspects from the JUG,  share a few war stories,  find out who is doing what and where and also come and tell us more about yourself.

You can respond to the invite here.  Hope to see you there!
