Other

This event is in-person. There's no remote option this time. We will join the Boston Kubernetes Meetup event . 

Many meetup groups went dormant during Covid and this Boston chapter of the CNCF Community group hasn't met in a long time. However we know that folks working with Kubernetes are eager to share with colleagues, and those just starting out and learning need a place to network and learn more also. 

I hope to see you at this event. Please RSVP because I'll need your first and last name for check in.
