We are a pretty new team, so the biggest thing now is attracting new members to get things off the ground. Please start by adding yourself to the Members list below and applying for membership in our team on Launchpad at launchpad.net/~ubuntu-minnesota. Swing by #ubuntu-us-mn on Freenode's IRC servers to introduce yourself and meet some other members, and once the mailing list comes online, subscribe to that to keep current with group events, ask and answer support questions, and interact with your fellow team members!
