Unfortunately, the GA Chapter is extremely inactive. I would love to see a N.Atlanta Chapter spin-off, but don't see it happening (No, I couldn't possibly even think about starting anything...I work a 50-hr week!).
aeronca, what part of GA are you from? You may be able to find some local individual FReepers that would like to get together for a shoot. If you're near N. Atlanta metro area, .45MAN and I would be up for an event. I could roust up a few others possibly.
