BoT In February

Hello once more to everyone! 🙂

 

Not much has really changed over the last month so we continue to offer our premium online meetup experience over at the BoT Discord server.

We have some wonderfully dedicated community members ensuring fun and eventful times are had when you are able to join us, from your latest work from home hax to fighting over music playlists and even gaming sessions to cry over how you STILL can’t get your hands on a new 3090…

 

This means all BoT meetups & regular interactions/chats will be continued across our available virtual environments, on both our Slack ChannelDiscord Server.

 

Until further notice, all monthly meetups will be held online on the 2nd Tuesday of every month.

ALL Locations: Tuesday 8th February – Online – From 18:30Discord Server

****************************

Of course, as we continue to watch carefully how things progress, we will keep you in the loop of new opportunities and new creative events to keep our community buzzing.

BoT In January ’22

Greetings to all you wonderful people! 🙂

 

After a short holiday (I can hear some saying…..”what is that? Thanks “insert current v of Log4J here”) hiatus, we are back….again! 😀

We made it once more, we continued to push through 2021 with all the existing and new challenges, and have once more turned a corner into 2022. This does not mean the end however, as we can clearly see from what is still going on around us…

With this in mind, we are unfortunately once more not in a safe time to start exploring physical meetup options at the moment, which is why we are continuing to offer our premium online meetup experience over at the BoT Discord server.

We have some wonderfully dedicated community members ensuring fun and eventful times are had when you are able to join us, from your latest work from home hax to fighting over music playlists and even gaming sessions to cry over how you STILL can’t get your hands on a new 3090…

 

This means all BoT meetups & regular interactions/chats will be continued across our available virtual environments, on both our Slack ChannelDiscord Server.

************** Additional Events Info **************

If you have been reading this over the last few months, you would have known that we had our annual members-only DC4131 hike event a couple weeks ago, and it was one of our best and most attended to date! 🙂
We had literally the perfect weather for the day, and the multiple strategies on show were a sight to behold, from the “beer for breakfast” approach, to the “dressed like I’m doing national army service” professional readiness approach, to which we all I’m sure can agree, had an awesome time.

If your thinking, “hey this looks real fun, I want in next year and for all future members-only events, reach out the to the DC4131 board who can let you know how you can become a member 😉
