If you're going to schedule regular events, you should probably do them every 2 weeks. If you do them every week, you'll get light turnouts because people have other things going on. If you do it every 2 weeks or once a month, you'll get bigger crowds. Even me
Another suggestion that we've found. Have everyone meet at a centralized spot and then drive to wherever the "event" is. This will bring more people out, allow first timers to find everyone, and get everyone to DRIVE THEIR CARS (which some people seem to forget is the point of having them)
