A co-founded and co-host a learn-to-code workshop "for women and friends," locally. (Men are welcomed as long as they are guests of female-identified participants.) Like Girl Develop It, but free--and we avoided the color pink. I'm also nominally on the planning committee for the local hackathon (though I mostly just show up at the event itself), and I show up at Code for Anchorage (Code for America) meetings at least once a year. :) I'm not sure if it counts as "belonging," per se, but I'm a lurker on the OpenHatch mailing list, and I participate in the Geek Feminism community. Until the organizer moved away, I went to local Raspberry Pi hack nights, every few weeks. Anchorage is small (300k people), so there's no Python Users Group or RailsBridge or anything like that, here. There's a Drupal Users Group, and I'm on their Meetup; we'll see if I ever show up, though. ;) I dropped our local Linux Users Group, because they're mostly just a mailing list for flamewars, nowadays; I don't even think they have meetings anymore. ...
