I’m happy to (finally) announce the first meeting of the Charleston, SC Java Users Group. It will be held April 2, 2008 at 5pm. We will probably actually start the meeting around 5:15 so please try to be at least close to on time. The meeting will be at the Benefitfocus building. The address is 100 Benefitfocus Way, Charleston SC 29492. However, Google maps doesn’t have us on it yet.

Here is a modified version of Google maps with directions to us. This link will allow you to enter the address you are coming from. Please note: If you head north on River Landing Drive and miss the turn for Fairchild Street you will find yourself on the interstate and will have to go all the way to the edge of Mt. Pleasant to turn around.

If you are planning on attending please RSVP by visiting our bulletin board and going into the RSVP forum. There will be a post for each meeting so that we can get a head count and list out any volunteers to bring refreshments. Also, Aaron Houston from Sun sent us a bunch of SWAG. I’ll be giving this all out at the first meeting and the first two people to volunteer to bring refreshments will get a book. First person to sign up gets their choice of book. I won’t reveal what the books are until people sign up though.

Should you have questions, comments, concerns feel free to call me at 843-849-7476. You will get the receptionist - just as for Jason McDonald.
