I'd like to encourage everyone to create a Social Group for your state or country.
You can access Social Groups in the Top Navigation Bar, click on "Quick Links" or in your UserCP under "Networking."
You can post, have discussions, upload pictures. etc, but mainly it will help you find others in your area.
For instance, I just created a Social Group for South Dakota. If you live in South Dakota please join the group.

Also if you have a club you can make a club group.
If you have already created a group, please go add an image for your group. (new feature)
