<p>A pre-conference event with local meetup group, Web & Interactive Media Professionals (WIMP). At least three of the North Bay Python organizers will be present at this potluck-style event at Santa Rosa Junior College. <ahref="https://www.facebook.com/events/1936385509950665/">Find more information and join us!</a></p>
<p>We are running a free speaker training the day before the conference. Everyone is invited to attend, but seating is limited so people who are accepted to speak at the conference are given priority.</p>
<p><strong>You must <ahref="/attend">register to attend</a>.</strong> Due to the location, the training is only open to people age 21 and older.</p>

<h2>Pre-conference Social Hour (<ahref="/wiki/meetups/social-hour/">Wiki</a>)<br/>
<small>December 1, 2017 @ 7:30pm</small></h2>
<p>Getting into town early? Come meet other attendees at the Pre-conference Social Hour! We have a table reserved for 20, come find us and say hello. The venue is quite large so once the table fills up we'll just start seeding tables in unreserved space.</p>
<p>This year's main event will run from 10:00am to about 6:15pm each day with check-in starting at 8:30am on Saturday. There are <ahref="/schedule/general-sessions/list/">20 sessions</a> and <ahref="/news">2 keynotes</a> that make up the North Bay Python 2017 program.</p>
<p>There will be a variety of official and unofficial events running during the conference, each day before opening, during lunch, and after closing. You can find a regularly updated list of events on the <ahref="/wiki/">Attendee Wiki</a>. You can find events, and organize your own, on the <ahref="/wiki/meetups/">Meetups</a> page.</p>
