My friends, we are in dire straights as a group.
Our space sponsor, SportsEngine, after having been acquired by NBC Sports, has been given restrictions on security, which means our meetup space and time is no longer available to us.
Along with the lack of food sponsorship, and the uncertaintly surrounding this, I’ve cancelled future monthly meetups for the time being.
I’m also reaching out for someone to step up for organizing this meetup. I no longer have time to spend finding sponsors, getting things organized, and keeping things running. I need help for this meetup group to keep going.
Contact me through meetup.com “Message the Organizers” link (it will go to all the people marked as organizers, not just me) if you can provide help.

p.s. - I still want to be involved, I love teaching, I love your questions, and want to help people learn Rails.
Spoke with Surly-- they unfortunately don't seem willing to waive food and bev. minimums, which are pretty steep (10x) what a sponsor would pay for food. Any other suggestions??

What's the latest? Do we have a new venue and food sponsor yet?

I met with Mark-- they have a great space, and he seemed very open to giving this a shot. He's curious what our schedule looks like (when we'd like to hold our next meeting).
I mentioned that we need a sponsorship, but we didn't discuss further. Tamara and/or Jason, I can include you on an email and introduce you to Mark, maybe it would be best if you take it from here?
Also, they are moving downtown Minneapolis in the spring, and sounds like they'd have an excellent space for us then as well.

My apologies, I haven't updated.Flatiron currently is willing to sponsor food, however, I felt that we shouldn't hold meetings at another bootcamp, I'm sure neither school would feel comfortable with that.I've been busy and haven't had an opportunity to call any other locations. The next steps would be to ask Prime if they would be willing to sponsor food in addition to offering a venue, and/or to call U of M and some other locations for a venue and accept Flatiron's food sponsorship.I can talk to Prime as I'm already in touch with them, I'll follow up with everyone on monday. Looking forward to our next meetup!

I think at this point he was looking for specific dates for when we'd like to use their space. I wasn't sure if there was any rhyme or reason to the dates we meet, but I'm happy to get some dates scheduled with him. Have we been meeting on the first Monday of the month?
