Have you attended a Final Cut Pro Network SuperMeet?

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.

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.

Founded by Nicholas Pyers and made up of more than 30 groups in Australia, AppleUsers.org is a central gathering spot for the leaders of Australian Apple User Groups.

They work together to grow together.

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.
