The Colorado [wiki:LoCoTeams Local Community Team] (aka Co``Lo``Co) advocates the use of Open Source software and Ubuntu Linux in the State of Colorado. This is done through CD Distribution, Team expansion, user-base support, and outreach programs. The [[https://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-us-co/|Ubuntu LoCo Co]] is a Colorado group devoted to educating the public on open-source software, with a focus on Ubuntu Linux. We are driven to get out and promote Ubuntu. We currently provide the following services to the public:
 * Community building
 * General questions
Line 8: Line 8:
The Colorado Local Community Team is '''not''' meant to replace our local LUGS but rather enhance their overall experience by having a dedicated place to discuss, contribute, and gain
support from local Ubuntu users.
In addition to our public services, we also host release parties marking both the April and October final releases. Check out the events section below if you are interested in attending the a release party or meetup.
