So it is looking like June is a great month for our community this year. SQL Saturday was great and we have to great speakers and community supporters coming to speak.

I have had about 20 RSVPs for our meeting on Thursday June 9th so far, and have heard from people at SQL Saturday #77 in Pensacola, FL that more are interested. So I have put together a flyer for our next couple of meetings. If you have seen the flyer at SQL Saturday notice the change for our 2nd meeting in June. Please post these flyers at the schools you attend or at your office and pass a long to as many people that you can.

If you haven't RSVP-ed please let me know that you plan to attend on June 9th. I want to be able to give our Speaker a heads-up on how many people to expect.

• Thursday, June 9th: Tom DuPont - Generate Your Code!
• Thursday, June 23rd: Doug Turnure - Inside the Sausage Factory – a look at how Microsoft’s Developer Division operates
