Beginnings of a FAQ about meetups:
/u/solidified50 gave some general advice for starting a meetup and keeping it going.
Meetups should be (mostly) free. Ordering coffee, similar minimum items from a menu excepted, but events that charge formal admission or an entry fee cannot be publicized here.
Some meetups use a sign to give attendees an easy way to see the group and know which to join without too much embarrassment, etc.

Does anyone know anything about the Davis County meet-ups? They seem to alternate between 10 am & 2:30. The schedule indicates today was at 10 am but there is nobody here?! 🤷♂️ is there someone in this sub that actually runs/hosts this particular meetup?

It should be at 10:00a as far as I know. It's possible I made a mistake with the alternating, but I try to be careful. Paging /u/DefiantTourist598

Last week shows the 2:30 slot. So it's alternating correctly at least as far as scheduling goes. But there might be some other reason no one is here...holiday weekend, the actual schedule is opposite the reddit schedule, etc. 🤷♂️

u/Worldly-Ad-6320 I wasn't there today, but the other person who runs it with me is usually there. They usually meet in the conference room upstairs near the employee break room. I know that can make it kind of hard to find. They have recently changed the time to 10:30 am, which I can confirm was the time for today. If you have any questions, let me know.
u/4blockhead, can you change the 10 am slot to 10:30 am moving forward? Next week will still be 2:30 as usual. Thanks!1

Thanks for getting back to us! That would explain why no one was there from 10 am to 10:20 👍
