To keep you from driving through the snow more than you have to, we've rescheduled this happy hour to February 24th at 6:00PM.

Are you one of those people who knows people? Bring those non-DCS-member people with you to Bring-A-Friend night! For each non-DCS member you bring, you will get one entry into a super-fabulous prize drawing!

If one of those non-DCS-members should join DCS, you will have our love and adoration forever! Okay, at least for a month or so. Even if you don't have friends to bring, you won't want to miss this happy hour -- we will unveil the exciting new 2010 DCS calendar of events. See you there!

The DCS Adobe User Group is teaming up again with the Wright-Patterson Coldfusion User Group to create an evening of education, discussion, and fun! Andrew Rossi and Robert Harr from FORGE will discuss their process of building a ColdFusion-based web application from design to development. Plus we'll hear talks from more WPCFUG speakers.

We will be at Canal Street Tavern (308 East First Street) on Tuesday, Dec. 15, so come out to hear some short talks and meet with other RIA (what's RIA?) folks in the area. There will also be giveaways of Adobe swag and a raffle for a free copy of Adobe CS4!

After the presentations, which will begin shortly after 7:00p, we will have networking time, as well as some fantastic local music.

This event is free to attend, and there will be a cash bar*.

Ever been to a silent auction? If you have, then you know that it's more laid back and less stressful than a standard auction. If you haven't, then Thursday, December 3rd is your chance. The GDAA, AMA, DCS, and IABC are holding a combination holiday party/silent auction at the NCR Country Club (map) at 6pm. The theme this year is “Meet Me at the Club”, and it's all about bringing back the glitz and celebrating the renewed optimism and condence of the late 1930s.

Everyone's invited to drop by, and the event organizers are also looking for things to auction off. This is a great opportunity to get your business' name or product out there. This is what the event organizers have to say:

The sooner you donate, the more you will benefit from the pre-event publicity which includes an item/donor list posted on our Web site(s), e-mail blasts, and more... plus, this year we’ve added Twitter… as donations come in we may send out “tweets” about the newest auction item(s) and who the generous donor was.

Check out the GDAA website for more info on how to donate, see the list of items up for auction so far, and stop by the event to make your bid.
