I guess “owners and operators” would mean “officials” (e.g., the board menbers), since a latter part of the posting also says “for individual makers, check this other Meetup thread”.
Or the board could appoint a liason…
I had reached out to them when they first started as they were asking for places to host it. I got no response and everything since then has been pretty exclusively up in Dayton. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
