We're just looking for an excuse to get the broader Po rtland startup and tech community together.* \;\n \;\nBack in the before times — when blogging was far more prevalent — the Portland start up community used to gather every Friday afternoon under the pretense of discussing blogging and often WordPress. When it was really just an exc use to see one another. And welcome both new transplants and visitors al ike to Portland. \;\n \;\nEvery Friday\, Beer and Blog was the bes t place to meet and chat with the Portland tech community — as a communi ty — whether you happened to blog or not. \;\n \;\nWith WordCamp U S 2024 — which is being held in Portland\, this year — coming to a concl usion on Friday\, September 20\, 2024\, it seemed like an opportune time to bask in a little nostalgia and gather for another Beer and Blog. Jus t for old time's sake. \;\n \;\nSo take off work a bit early and h ead down to Rogue in SE Portland (formerly known as The Green Dragon). Y ou deserve it. Go spend some time getting acquainted with the Portland t ech community you're one event away from getting to know and love. Or re connect with folks whom you haven't seen in a long long time.\n\nTags: b eer\, blog\, beer and blog\, WordCamp\, wordcamp us\, wcus\, wordpress\, free\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250481309 URL:https://www.meetup.com/pie-portland-startup-community/events/30345047 2/ SUMMARY:Beer and Blog: WordCamp US 2024 edition LOCATION:Rogue Eastside Pub & Pilot Brewery: 928 SE 9th Ave\, Portland OR 97214 SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250623T221148Z DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20250831 DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20250826 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250623T221148Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20250623T221148Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250482085 DESCRIPTION:This event runs from Tuesday\, August 26\, 2025 at 9am throug h Saturday\, August 30\, 2025 at 9pm.\n\nDescription:\nThe home of 1\,50 0+ diverse web professionals with a passion for WordPress. \;\n \; \nWordPress provides the freedom to create\, express yourself\, and earn money online\, making the impossible business as usual.\n\nTags: wordpr ess\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250482085 URL:https://us.wordcamp.org/2025/ SUMMARY:WordCamp US LOCATION:Oregon Convention Center: 777 NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.\, Portland OR 97232 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
