Presenting At Drupal Camp In Minneapolis
Besides being a proponent of the Open Web in general, I'm specifically a big fan of the Drupal Community. The community has played a big part in keeping me involved in Drupal since I discovered it more than six years ago. The local Drupal community, in particular, has been a constant source for new tools, new ways of working, and even new ways of thinking. I don't know where I'd be without the community, but I'd certainly be a lot less mature as a developer.

Drupal Camp 2014
This past weekend was Twin Cities Drupal Camp 2014. I had volunteered to help plan the event and was even lucky enough to be chosen to give a presentation. I gave a talk, directed towards developers like me, on the scariness, or more accurately, lack thereof, in the transition of upcoming Drupal 8 to object-oriented ways.
And just because the Camp is over, that doesn't mean you have to wait until next year to become involved in our vibrant community. Here are a few more ways to take part immediately:
- You can get involved in our local community by following the Twin Cities Drupal Group. There are meetups twice a month; once on the first Thursday of the month, and one on the last Wednesday.
- You'll see several O8 people—web designers, developers, and more— being very active in those meetups. Come say hello—we are the friendly type!
- Of course, there's the great resource that is Drupal where you can find the whole worldwide community, including what’s new and hot.
