Preliminary planning stages for a possible DakotaDIY 2024 and putting out feelers for interest and potential dates.
Tentatively it would be more of a "hangout" at my place Friday night, followed by the event proper on Saturday. I will smoke a pork shoulder and have some side dishes ready, that kind of thing. We can rotate speakers in and out down in my basement and enjoy our bar.
I will likely be limiting attendance somewhat lower than IowaDIY to maintain that "feel" of DakotaDIY, so if this goes down there will be a registration and a headcount cutoff. I have not decided what that will be, but in the ballpark of 30-35 all-in.
I have at least one potential venue in my sights, but it does not allow alcohol and we are all adults and many of us enjoy a few beers while these things go on. I will be shopping around, however.
Anyways, still early and still time to plan but this city does fill up during the summer months so the sooner I can book a venue and block off some rooms the better.
May 31st - June 1st, June 7th - June 8th, or June 14th - June 15th. Fair warning, if we choose the June 7th-8th option that is my birthday weekend so that Saturday night might involve a bunch of us headed to our favorite watering hole.

Should be able to make it down
I'll put it on my calendar, JR!

Im in , spring planting should be done by then.
Chatting with wife, I think June 7-8 will work. Same plan, informal meet/greet at my place Fri night and a shindig at our favorite bar Sat night. I'll cook for everyone Friday night.
I hope to make it.
I'm going to start putting together an informational post after the New Year.
