Are you planning to go to any comic/anime/toy/scifi conventions this year? maybe various CPS members could meet up at them!
I might go to this one:

That's pretty close to where I now live. That's where I do my shopping at stores like Best Buy and Target. It all depends on my work schedule and how much spending money I have at that time. It's in April. Harmony Gold (Robotech!) will be in attendance.
