Is SQL Saturday really coming to Phoenix? Well the announcement was made public at the Arizona PASS chapter in a recent user group meeting. It is headed up by @Hafthor, @Coneybeer and myself @sqlsamson. We have teamed up and are looking to get the community involved! If you don't know what SQL Saturday is then allow me to brief you on it. It is a one day FREE training event that is conveniently held on a Saturday. In these troubled times FREE training never sounded so good! How great is that? SQL Saturday offers two tracks with four to six sessions for each track lasting about an hour each. The best part is that the speakers are fellow SQL Server enthusiast from our very own local community. You know them and you love them so come out and show your support!
If you are familiar with SQL Saturday then you know it was picked up by (PASS) the Professional Association of SQL Server not long ago and the fact it is in its planning stages here in Arizona is exciting. With such a large and overwhelming amount of knowledge sharing that SQL Saturday has to offer, it will be to valuable asset to the community. Keep in mind that SQL Saturday won't be a success unless you get involved. We need support from the community in several different areas. If you are apart of another technical group please spread the word that SQL Saturday is coming and we are looking for speakers/presenters, sponsors, volunteers, and of course venues.
If you are willing to present, sponsor, volunteer or can assist with getting locations please contact either one of the following:
- Samson Loo: @sqlsamson - sqlsamson [at] gmail.com
- Chris Coneybeer @coneybeer
- Hafthor Stefansson @hafthor
