On the weekend of April 5, 2025, I attended (and Redgate sponsored) SQL Saturday Richmond. Having lived for 5 years in the Virginia Beach (and worked for a company there for 20 more), Richmond events have long been a staple of my SQL Server community involvement.
This year, I did not submit a session, and I just showed up to learn some new stuff and be one of the sponsors. Simple Talk usually doesn’t get a table at these events, which gives me time to just be there as an attendee.
