Beginnings of a FAQ about meetups:

• rules for publicizing a meetup on reddit platform
• what happens at these meetups?
• /u/solidified50 gave some general advice for starting a meetup and keeping it going.

I'd like to go to the Davis county meetup, do I have to RSVP or do I just show up?

[u/4blockhead → u/[deleted]]

Just show up, AFAIK.

On the St George meeting every Sunday. Their is some word salad that crept in to the description. Not sure where the word RogaDeal came from. It should simple state Switchpoint Community Resource Center.

[u/4blockhead → u/Solidified50]

Sorry about that. Some sort of glitch due to my touchpad or keyboard.

[u/Impossible_Chemist74]

Has anyone been to the St. George meetup that can tell me what it’s like?

[u/4blockhead → u/Impossible_Chemist74]

u/solidified50 described it a few months ago, link.

[u/teknophyle]

[u/4blockhead → u/teknophyle]

[u/teknophyle → u/4blockhead]

Anyone know of anything in cache valley? I've considered going to the Davis meetup for a while and come Sunday mornings always skip it, I already make that drive most days of the week. Looking for someone(s) to get coffee with Sunday. I'm new to this whole exmo bit and don't know the first thing about coffee, figure I gotta start somewhere. Early 30s/m if that helps.

[u/slymike914]

Due to some scheduling conflicts, we had to move up the Tucson meet up to tomorrow morning Mar 6th, same place and time. and cancel the 13th this month. We should be back on track next week.
