I'm going to try to shoot these emails out the first of each week in
efforts of keeping everyone updated. New events, meetups and gathers
seem to pop up pretty quickly and they're always better when a bunch
attend.
Of course you can also follow the calendar at
http://elevatorup.com/atrium/west-michigan-tech-events.
If you've putting something on and I missed it, let me know and I'll
add it to the list.
