Announcements!

We had a lovely Girl Geek Dinner in April at BJ’s Restaurant. We had a wide range of attendees: industry, students, education. There were some great conversations!

Wendie and I have decided, based on the feedback from the dinner in February, to have monthly Girl Geek Dinners.  We’ve decided to host Girl Geek Dinners of the second Wednesday of every month.  Mark you calendars from 6-9 pm for the rest of the year!

  • May 12th
  • June 9th
  • July 14th
  • August 11th
  • September 8th
  • October 13th
  • November 10th
  • December 8th

The locations (except for May and June) have yet to be determined.

From my Facebook and Twitter poll, Boulder was the preferred choice for the May Girl Geek Dinner.  If you’re in Denver, don’t worry!  I’m planning on having the June Girl Geek Dinner at the Denver Tech Center.  If you have any thoughts on where we can have it in the DTC, please email me at COGirlGeekDinner@live.com.  The May GGD would be a great chance to get know a fellow Girl Geek and carpool to Boulder.

Here are all the details for the May Girl Geek Dinner (I’ll do a dedicated blog post for the May GGD as well).

Based on feedback from members, you really want to get to know each other.  Lightning talks are a great opportunity for casual talks on a variety of subjects.  We would love to hear what you are passionate about or anything you’d like to teach us!  Since we’ll be in a restaurant, there won’t be normal presentation supplies available, so please no slide decks.  If you would like to a Lightning Talk (I hope you do, it’s a great way to introduce yourself and impart knowledge!) or have any questions please email me, COGirlGeekDinner@live.com.

GGD: April 14th!

We are excited to announce our April Girl Geek Dinner event at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewery in Westminster.

Reading Girl Geek Dinner 2 Announced

[tweetmeme source=readinggd]It’s back again!  Yes you heard that right we are up and ready to roll with the second Reading Girl Geek Dinner.  As some of you may recall we did the first event at the Bel and Dragon.  Well we liked the venue and the food there was great so we are back their again for the second event.

We haven’t yet chosen a theme for the event and don’t have a key speaker but if you would like to make a suggestion or offer to do a short 15 minute talk on a subject of your choosing then do let us know and we’ll publish the details of that on the sign up page.

So all there is left to say is:

The usual rules apply, if you are male and would like to attend this event then you will need to be invited by one of the females attending the event. (Each female has only one invite)
