#vBrisket Meat Up

Our fellow virtualization community friends over at #vBrisket are doing a cross-country road trip to VMworld US 2016, from Chicago to Las Vegas. One of their stops is in Kansas City, on Wednesday, August 24th.

The timing is a bit fluid—it’ll depend on when the bus arrives from Chicago in the early evening—but the plan is for a “meat up” for the travellers to sample some award-winning bar-b-que at The Woodyard BBQ in KCKS, and anyone from the KC metro area is invited to join in the fun…

Hope to see you there!!!

2016 UserCon

Another year…another UserCon…

As we close out this year’s UserCon, with nearly 600 attending of 670+ registered, the KC VMUG leadership sends a heartfelt Thank you! to all of this year’s sponsors.

We also appreciate all the attendees that spent some or all of the day with us: you’re the reason we put this crazy thing together!

As always, we have lots of photos to share…and look forward to seeing as many as can make it to the next meeting, August 17, 2016 at Boulevard Brewing Company.

2014 Holiday Round-up

In addition to our regular meeting on Thursday, December 18th, we’re working on some additional events to bring the year to the close and have some fun during the end-of-year holiday madness.

First up is the small-format movie premiere sponsored by SimpliVity. We’re being treated to some product information and a private showing of the new Hunger Games movie, Mockingjay, Pt1 on Friday, November 21 from noon to 5pm. Attendance will be extremely limited and managed through EventBrite registration rather than the VMUG website.

Second is a vBeers/Happy Hour following the movie event—regardless of whether you attend the movie event or not—coordinated by the KCVMUG Volunteers committee. Unline your typical vBeers, we’re requesting donations (suggesting $20) to help the committee reach a goal of $700 to donate to The Salvation Army’s Childrens’ Shelter. This event is being held at Rock & Brews on W 135th Street in OPKS. We will be able to collect cash donations as well as have a couple laptops available for you to make a donation either directly to the Salvation Army or via another private EventBrite page. (If you plan to make a direct donation before the event, just bring a copy of your confirmation with a date from this month and we’ll count it towards our goal.)
