First, welcome to FT!!!!! ^
Second, it's a get-together of FlyerTalkers!
Third, there are some extensive threads on this question. I'm sure someone will post a link soon.

Hey there!
Check out the FLL DO (Called Fort Liquordale Do
) and you will see a couple posts about what happens at our GAY Do's.

Welcome to FlyerTalk, Greg!
Somewhere in the mists of FlyerTalk history, every organized get-together began to be called a "Do." I'll move this over to the Community Forum which is the home of all our Dos and they can probably educate us on the history of the term!
Thanks

Ah so this is what all the DO is all about! 
I've popped in this forum but didn't realize that this is what DO was. Thanks for the help ^

Not a silly question at all -- indeed a natural one for a new member to pose. For that reason, answers to many recurring questions about our Community are collected in a master thread that is "stuck" near the top of this CommunityBuzz list of threads. The particular thread which will answer your question at length is at http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=480017.
As the above thread is so comprehensive, I'll close this one now, with the hope that you will be able to join -- or even host -- a FT 'do in the future. Ocn Vw 1K, Co-Moderator, CommunityBuzz
