Digital Rochester is a great place to network, and to learn. The DR team has sent out a press release for their events over the next few months. Hope to see you there!

— from the Digital Rochester team —
Hope that you’re all having an outstanding summer that includes some play time with friends and family! The DR Team’s been busy behind the scenes planning a great schedule of events for the fall.

First up is an event that’s very special to us - a celebration of Digital Rochester’s Eighth Birthday! It was August of 2000 when we asked a group of friends to meet us on the deck at Tonic, saying, “We’ve got an idea…” Now, more than 4,000 members and hundreds of events later, Digital Rochester and our sponsor, the Lombard Insurance Agency (http://www.lombardinsurancerochester.com), invite you to celebrate with us at a grand BIRTHDAY PARTY on August 12th! Our long time supporters, High Falls Brewing, will provide their finest for the birthday toast! And wait till you see the party place that we found in the Market Space at Station 55.

WHAT: DR Networking and Birthday Celebration!
WHEN: Tuesday, August 12th, 5:30-7:30 pm
WHERE: The Market Space at Station 55, 55 Railroad Street (directions below)
