When I proposed this to Brenda, here’s the response:
“That sounds like a great idea. We often participate in groups that are not strictly Avid User Groups. One is the Editor

Beyond venue / advertisers, there’s always the crux of editor hours and working professionals coming in to play. Last time I remember someone trying this, the calendar really became a factor as far as people showing up. Just something to consider – don’t want to be Debbie Downer or anything…..
