The YPC event at Sbrocco on July 31st was very well attended. I am not sure if we got anyone specifically from this site as I was not aware you were helping us out by promoting the event, but the turnout was great. If you have not made it to Sbrocco yet, make it a point to get there soon cause the place is awesome.
