Hey Elan

Glad to hear that you and your dad are making some great memories! I am the Bay Area member rep and I can help connect you to meet ups that are happening near you. In Pleasanton CA there is a meet up on the second Sunday’s of the month and it has a great regular turn out and active. The Tri-Valley (Pleasanton) group has 2021 all planned out and you can see the plan on the second post under our thread.

Our next meet up will be April 11th, 1-3pm. Below is a link to the meet up page and thread with information.

This is the regular meet up info

US West - Tri-Valley Monthly Meet Up- Pleasanton CA
Thanks Dave. Unlikely that we can come to this one because we have commitments on Sundays, but I will bring it up because I'd love to go. I see the thread you linked has information about an event earlier in March, but I don't see anything else. Does the Tri-Valley crew have events planned somewhere else, or is there just nothing right now?

The second post if you scroll down has the entire 2021 year. The Sunday meet up event is a place holder for the second Sunday of each month
