Do you get over to Buffalo or Niagara Falls much? I know a bunch of gamers there I could put you in contact with.
There's a big event in Buffalo this weekend, though it's primarily a Warmachine and Infinity event. There is a big By Fire & Sword community there too.
I can think of a few other events in and around your area, are you in contact with the Western New York War Gamers?
Cheers.
