We’re holding our first SQL Saturday event in Dallas on May 22, 2010.
I'm in charge of getting this great event sponsored, so if your company (or one you know) is interested in sponsoring, shoot me an email at Jen@JenniferMcCown.com and I'll get you the details double-quick. We're expecting over 400 attendees (and I wonder if we're underestimating), so it's a great opportunity for some excellent IT exposure. Of your company. And product. Not you. You know what I mean.
Sean is in charge of speakers, and he's sent out the official call: If you're going to be in Dallas, or would like to be, on May 22, then send an abstract directly to Sean at KO@KenpoSecrets.com by Feb 15 and we’ll get you going.
On a personal note, I've never been involved in planning something this big, and this full of win. There's a lot of work that goes into it, but it's also really cool to see a big event start to come together on paper. And believe me, kids…SQL Saturday #35 is alreay chock full of win! I'm really excited…this will bring Dallas a lot of free training, networking, and swag. It'll be great for the user group, too: we're really ramping up for 2010 overall, with some cool NTSSUG events in addition to SQL Saturday. Hint: The January user group meeting should be wicked cool…
