Yes, whenever someone organizes one.  How about you?  ;)

https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-minnesota/+members has everyone,
and https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-minnesota/+map shows their
location within the state.

There isn't anything only of the Ubuntu group regularly, but there is
a LoCo/LUG crossover meetup monthly organized through Penguins
Unbound.  I'd love to see people organizing things regularly - I just
need other people to take the reins and make it happen since I don't
have time personally at the moment.  If available I would attend,
although that's rather hit and miss.

If not in person, you can also find a small handful of us chilling in
#ubuntu-us-mn on Freenode (IRC), and of course the larger Ubuntuverse
in other channels there as well.
