Hi Jason - and welcome to the area.
If you pop over to our website at:
www.macastro.org.au you'll pick up lots and lots of relevant information, have a look at our galleries and find out how to join.
John Rombi ("astronut" here on IceInSpace) is the current President and would be more than happy to introduce you to the society. If you're able to, please come to our "Stargard" dark sky site at the Oaks (just beyond Camden) for an evening with the members and their scopes. A map can be found here:

and we're there from around 4:30-5:00pm this Saturday.
We also have a Facebook page:

We look forward to meeting you!
