travel gathering in Phoenix area?

On this board, some posts have referred to travel gatherings that take place in Colorado. Does anyone know of a group that has meetings to discuss travel, in the Phoenix area? I have tried to start one myself through Meetup, with not much success, and been to a couple of groups which meet regularly but are more for luxury travelers. I'm not a backpacker, and not into luxury, (in fact the Rick Steves philosophy is perfect for me).

I would also like advice on how to start a successful travel group....

Find the folks who post here that live in the Phoenix area and email them to check on their interest. I believe that is how our S. Denver group got started - by Lee emailing folks.

Grace, I think it would be a great idea. I would love to have a gathering here in PHX.
