Morel get together?

[toughguy]

I've never hunted morels but I want to this year for the first time. (OK I've looked for them before but never found one) Would anyone be interested in a morel get together in SE MN? Maybe the Whitewater area? Or would it be giving away too many secrets to have a group outing? I'm going to give it a better effort either way this year it would just be nice to get some pointers and see what others can find.

The DNR does an outing at whitewater. They teach people the basics and then they go out in the woods and go hunting. I have never done it but I think it would be a great way start. Here is the info:
