Important Update About This Group
Thanks for stopping by! After nearly 9 years of hosting this group, the time has come for a change. Due to rising costs, I’ll be stepping down as organizer and ending the paid subscription that keeps the group active on Meetup.

What started as a small gathering has grown into… well, still a small gathering — but a consistently awesome one filled with passionate, thoughtful, and creative folks. It’s been a great run, and I’m incredibly thankful to everyone who’s been part of the journey.

If you’re interested in keeping the group going, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to help with the handoff and provide any info you'd need to step in as the new organizer.
Otherwise, thank you again to all who have been part of this community!

– Shawn
