Have you attended a Final Cut Pro Network SuperMeet? Every SuperMeet is
filled with great presenters, a bountiful raffle bin, sponsors galore
and an opportunity to network with leaders in the industry. On June 25
the first annual London SuperMeet will coincide with the tenth
anniversary of FCP groups in the UK. This is one event you won't want to
miss.

2] - Growing Groups: Final Cut Pro User Group in Hungary
........................
Not all big user group Apple events happen in the US, the UK or
France. Hungary's Final Cut Pro Group is producing a road show that
includes five presenters, two master trainers and video pros. The
results? It only took two weeks to sell out, and the group is making
plans for a bigger venue next year.
Join and learn.

(Congrats to Gyula Kazari and members of Hungary's FCP group.)

3] - Santa Barbara Macintosh Users Group: Chris Breen Presents
........................
The Santa Barbara Macintosh Users Group (SBMUG) keeps busy, with regular
podcasts, blogs, picnics and presenters. In July, Chris Breen, Senior
Editor of Macworld Magazine will return. If last year's preso at the
Museum of Natural History is any predictor, this meeting will provide
good memories for years to come.
Check it out.

5] - The Pi: Clubhouse Saturdays Provide a Great Service
........................
For more than thirty years, few groups have been as vibrant and
accomplished as the Washington Apple Pi (WAP). One of the reasons that
they have stayed involved and active is their commitment to public
service. Their newest service is Clubhouse Saturdays, where people can
meet, chat, learn what is going on with the club and ask questions of
hardware and software gurus.
Check it out.
