19. Membership Drive
Fine Print
At each meeting, be sure the GANG Secretary has recorded your
attendance, your e-mail address and the names and e-mail addresses
of any new guests you bring.
For each meeting you attend (February-June 2010) you will receive
an entry into a drawing.
For each new guest you bring to a meeting, you will receive an
additional entry.
A new guest is one who has not attended a meeting in at least 12
months.
A new guest may be considered a guest of at most one member.
Once a guest has attended a meeting they are no longer considered
new; However, they may increase their own odds of winning by
attending more meetings and bringing new guests of their own.
No circular references allowed (aka, two new people cant show up
together and put that they were each referred by the other).
A drawing will be held at the June meeting.
The winner will receive an XBoxKinect.
You must be present at the June meeting in order to win.

This is an informal meetup of people interested in learning from
one another. Bring your laptop and pair up with someone to work on
an open source project, learn a new technique, or even dabble in a
new language. There is no agenda or specific topic, just a time set
aside for people to pair.
