I was talking with someone about Conference Chats recently, and they seemed pretty shocked to learn that there are 300 of us in the group. Like any community, some are more active than others, and it's still a pretty tiny fraction of the population of conference and community organizers that could be part of it, but it's certainly grown a bit over the years from its "a few of us on a calendar invite" origin.

It is still very tech-heavy (and Python in particular), but our topics are the organizing side of things, which is almost always pretty separate from the subject matter of any given conference or meetup. If you're a community organizer looking for other folks with that experience, there's a good chance that one of us has an experience to share, or at least a helpful outside perspective. I am, of course, biased, but I think it's a wonderful group to be a part of. https://www.conferencechats.org
