I started one in the Southwest suburbs few years back. Its a great group, smallish. We have no attendance requirements and charge dues of $12/year (that pay for the meetup site and two parties per year).
If you're interested, please send me an email (listed on our main page).

Posting this because I noticed quite a few moms from the SW burbs in the starred post below.
