+# Meetup
+
+Calculate the date of meetups.
+
+Typically meetups happen on the same day of the week.  In this exercise, you
+will take a description of a meetup date, and return the actual meetup date.
+
+Examples of general descriptions are:
+
+- The first Monday of January 2017
+- The third Tuesday of January 2017
+- The wednesteenth of January 2017
+- The last Thursday of January 2017
+
+The descriptors you are expected to parse are:
+first, second, third, fourth, fifth, last, monteenth, tuesteenth, wednesteenth,
+thursteenth, friteenth, saturteenth, sunteenth
+
+Note that "monteenth", "tuesteenth", etc are all made up words. There was a
+meetup whose members realized that there are exactly 7 numbered days in a month
+that end in '-teenth'. Therefore, one is guaranteed that each day of the week
+(Monday, Tuesday, ...) will have exactly one date that is named with '-teenth'
+in every month.
+
+Given examples of a meetup dates, each containing a month, day, year, and
+descriptor calculate the date of the actual meetup.  For example, if given
+"The first Monday of January 2017", the correct meetup date is 2017/1/2.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+Make sure you have read the "Guides" section of the
+[C track][c-track] on the Exercism site. This covers
+the basic information on setting up the development environment expected
+by the exercises.
+
+## Passing the Tests
+
+Get the first test compiling, linking and passing by following the [three
+rules of test-driven development][3-tdd-rules].
+
+The included makefile can be used to create and run the tests using the `test`
+task.
+
+    make test
+
+Create just the functions you need to satisfy any compiler errors and get the
+test to fail. Then write just enough code to get the test to pass. Once you've
+done that, move onto the next test.
+
+As you progress through the tests, take the time to refactor your
+implementation for readability and expressiveness and then go on to the next
+test.
+
+Try to use standard C99 facilities in preference to writing your own
+low-level algorithms or facilities by hand.
+
+## Source
+
+Jeremy Hinegardner mentioned a Boulder meetup that happens on the Wednesteenth of every month [https://twitter.com/copiousfreetime](https://twitter.com/copiousfreetime)
+
+## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
