\n———————–<\/p>\n

FRUGOS (Front Range Users of Geospatial Open Source) is holding its
\nfirst GeoSummit on Saturday, June 16th at Churchill Navigation–100
\nArapahoe–in Boulder.<\/p>\n

This will be a unique gathering of a variety of folks interested in
\nPlace–geo-types, hackers, academics, artists, amateur enthusiasts,
\netc. While there certainly will be representation from the GIS and open
\nsource worlds, we encourage all who are fascinated about the
\nintersections of technology and engagement with the world around us to
\nparticipate.<\/p>\n

Also, we’ll be structuring the day around the “un-conference” model (see
\nhttp:\/\/www.barcamp.org<\/a>), so, for starters, you
\ncan expect:
\nNo Pitches
\nNo PowerPoint
\nNo Passivity (unless you’re a little sleepy after lunch)<\/p>\n

Bring your laptop (we’ll have wireless), and a project or enthusiasm
\nyou’d like to talk about with the group, get feedback, and collaborate
\non fresh solutions: the agenda of the day will be structured during
\nthe morning registration\/sign-up\/socializing period.<\/p>\n

If interested–
\n1) RSVP by joining the Google Groups set up for this event–<\/p>\n

http:\/\/groups.google.com\/group\/geosummit<\/a><\/p>\n

2) Bring a laptop (and cellphone\/GPS if your enthusiasms tilt that
\nway), your idea\/project, and willingness to collaborate<\/p>\n

3) Spread the word<\/p>\n

Tentative Schedule<\/p>\n

9:30-10:30AM Registration, refreshment, socializing
\n10:30-12ish Sessions
\n12ish-2 Lunch (there’s a grill, beverages, and hiking trails)
\n2-? Sessions<\/p>\n

This promises to be a great combination of creativity, intellectual
\nengagement, eating and drinking, and socializing.<\/p>\n
