There is a handful of local GIS events coming up around here, if you happen to find yourself in the Sacramento area.

• Sacramento GeoBeers
  Sacramento GeoBeers is a new endeavor, billed as a casual meetup without a specific agenda to get together with other spatially inclined folks. Sounds like fun. I wish I could make this one, but I'll be on the lookout for the next one.

• Sacramento GIS User Group
  This one is a little more of a formal thing. Daytime, downtown, presentations, etc. Nice folk though, and a very supportive environment if you want to present.
