Brion,
Welcome to Cascadia!
You may already have the http://cascadia.wiki link. It includes links to our upcoming events & our social media links. The former is more current than the latter sometimes. Right now we have a couple of meetups scheduled on weekday evenings in Seattle, but there is also be a Wiknic in Portland, although this has not been scheduled. I anticipate that there will be some editathons this fall.
I have scheduled two Canada and United States affiliates meetups at Wikimania, Friday, July 17 at 17:30 & Saturday, July 18 at 18:00. I created a page for sign-up & topics at https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Canada_and_United_States_affiliates.... Right now we have a few folks signed up for Friday evening. I will probably endeavor to send out / place individual invitations in the next couple of days.
There is also a Wiki Cascadia page at https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Cascadia. Quiddity, also from WMF, is also attending Wikimania. He live in British Columbia.
That's it for me at the moment as I need to get back to work. I am looking forward to meeting you at Wikimania!
Yours, Peaceray peaceray@cascadia.wiki (forwards to) raymond.f.leonard.jr@gmail.com

Hey Cascadia Wikimedians!
I've just moved from San Francisco up to Portland as my home base; should be able to make it to Portland and Seattle based events pretty easily.
It looks like I'll see some of y'all down in Mexico City in the meantime!
Some of the cool projects I'm working on include fixing up our video and multimedia support and doing research on more semantic document models that can have more flexible formatting and better information linkage. Check out my talk at Wikimania for more soon. :)
