I am the organizer of the Northfield Linux User Group. While I myself know very little about Free BSD, you are welcome to come to one of our weekly coffee house coders groups, or one of our technical meetings. Perhaps some other members may be able to help you. We meet every Monday evening at The Hideaway in downtown Northfield for some social time. Everyone generally brings projects they are working on, usually code or graphic design stuff but it's whatever you want. We also host technical meetings. Our first one since the group revived is this next Thursday. Perhaps we can look into hosting a Free BSD class at some point. Meeting up with people in person is definitely a valuable experience. When I first began learning Linux (Ubuntu) I was on forums, IRC, and mailing lists for a while before attending my first user group. It can be hard to learn something new when you don't know what questions to ask and what software and resources are available.
