Hi Jodi,

The first step is to set up a page at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup

I can set up a geonotice on en.wp (and possibly others) if you let me know what you want saying and the geographical coordinates (long/lat range) to cover. Or you can request it at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Geonotice

I'm sure that Cary Bass can add it to the Wikipedia Facebook group, which will also bring in additional people, if you ask him nicely. ;-)

Hope this helps. :-)

If you meet him there, Clem will bring you along to the hotel. Watch out though, Dún Laoghaire also has the steeple of St. Michael's church. However, St. Michael's can be distinguished from the Mariners' Church because the main body of the St. Michael's burnt down in the 1960s.
