Family Lounge

DrupalCon Chicago will have a Family Lounge where DrupalCon attendees with children, significant others, spouses, and companions of attendees can gather away from the hustle and bustle of the conference itself. The room will be outfitted with a TV, DVD player and comfortable furniture.
