# BarCamp Portland gathering August 23

The folks who organize the [BarCamp Portland](http://barcamp.org/BarCampPortland "BarCamp Portland") event, [Dawn Foster](http://fastwonderblog.com/ "Dawn Foster") and [Raven Zachary](http://www.rinzai.com/ "Raven Zachary"), also hold a series of informal meetups throughout the year.

> The Portland meetups are intended to be a little less intense and more frequent than a full BarCamp Portland event. The intent is to get a group of cool people interested in technology together to chat over drinks on the fourth Thursday of every month. Anyone working in high-tech is welcome to attend. Conversations usually range from wikis to open source to blogs to who knows what!

Interested in attending? See [Upcoming](http://upcoming.yahoo.com/event/234969/ "BarCamp Portland on Upcoming") or RSVP at the [BarCamp Portland](http://barcamp.org/BarCampPortlandMeetups "RSVP for BarCamp Portland meetups") site.
