Everyone should consider the above to be tentative, as speakers occasionally need to cancel or reschedule. That said, we have a few excellent speakers who have offered to step in should we have a last-minute cancellation.
If you have interest in presenting something at a regular meeting or a tech night, please drop me an email. It doesn’t need to be highly technical. It doesn’t need to be an hour long. It just needs to be fun!
Look for a new page with meeting plans on the n1fd.org website soon.
Scott, NE1RD
