So moving into OSGeo California territory?
FYI, the closest current thing is the GeoMeetup in SF area that Ragi runs.

For everyone else:
In big states it's a little harder for a Chapter to hold meetings more
than a few times a year. A core group of friendly acquaintances close
enough to meet once a month seems to work well.

FYI, Linux User Groups are one such model to look at. My town has
managed to have one for 15 years with attendance from 3-100. All it
takes is one person constantly organizing.

Thanks,
Alex
