Introduction to board & card games

A group for women who hike and backpack in California (and occasionally further abroad).
We respect Leave No Trace, share the costs of our adventures equally if necessary, and enjoy the company of awesome wilderness loving women who are wanting companions to go out and play.
Message me if you would like to be an event organizer. Always happy to facilitate community.
 

My wife, Mary Hertert, and I started www.WesternSlopeAdventuers.org as a meetup.com group when we moved from Anchorage, Alaska (where we had started the www.AnchorageAdventurers.org in 2007) in 2011. 
Meetup.com was purchased by a large company, We Work,  last year and it's service has been suffering since that time.
Another similar platform has shown up on the web, called Down to Meet. It's so new that it says 'beta testing' on its website.
However, in WSA, we are moving a bunch of the events that we are posting over there to see how it works out. In addition to keeping an eye on WSA on meetup.com, you might want to take a look at: https://www.downtomeet.com/org/Western-Slope-Adventurers/home.
Signing up on one or the other, we hope to see you outdoors real soon.

Welcome to Roadrunners - a new Motorcycle club with a fun attitude to our hobby & lifestyle. We are small at the moment but have big ideas and high hopes for the future!
The plan is to create fun, regular events for all aspects of Riding. We will be mainly based in and around the M25 but will also include regular touring trips as well.
Our ethos is:
Fun - Inclusiveness - Respect
Feel free to join us - we re not about rules and egos... al we want to do is ride with a bunch of like-minded folk. You will be treated with respect and we expect the same in return. Want to ride in a T-shirt? You're an adult and that is your choice, you won't be reprimanded for it. Want to join a big trip but only have a 125? That's fine - you'll be welcome, we included everyone. Want to go at warp speeds? No issues with that - just pay your own tickets is all we ask!
We understand that we are all responsible enough to make our own decisions within a group environment. As long as you aren't a danger to anyone within the group - we will welcome you to join us on a ride. 
Happy riding!

Founders of Roadrunners Motorcycle Club.

ABOUT PARGAT & PHIL:

Phil, Pargat & Sabrina (Phil's Girlfriend) - The Highlands, February 2016. What a crazy Idea...
We've been good friends since 2015, meeting from LMRC - another club. We have many great memories of riding together, some very crazy like riding around in snowy Scotland in February, chasing each other all day through seriously good roads at speeds you wouldn't want to speak too loudly to people of authority! ...And some a bit more down to earth like fixing bikes and eating dinner together. 
We have a very relaxed attitude to life in general really and expect to head this club the same as everything else - chilled out. We didn't set this club up for any other reason than: we just want to go for a burger and have a relaxed atmosphere. Come and join us on a ride and we hope to meet & make new friends too.

This is open to all who like taking photographs, from the absolute beginner to the expert. Everyone very welcome. Ideal for new group members with any level of interest in photography and/or meeting arty types, as you can wander on your own or chat to other folk if you like, whichever suits you best.

We run a series of regular photo challenges. Meet up at the location shown on the event date page and spend 1 hour wandering about taking loads of photos with your SLR, compact, polaroid, phone, or any other camera you like, with the subject we select for the event. You can bring any props you like, or find inspiration where we are. 
One hour later come back to the start and then those who want to can go for tea, cake and a chat afterwards.

Get home later, sort out your pics and upload your favourite 6 here.  Go to the pictures section on here, find albums, click on that one and upload your 6 best pictures) Make (only) nice comments about other people's pictures. :-)

We usually meet at 11.45 am (and the hour starts at 12.00 noon prompt. Photography finishes at 1.00 pm. Attendance is free. Check the event itself in case times differ.

Over the Hill Gamers is open to anyone over age 30. We are a committed group of tabletop RPG players and GMs dedicated to great games and respect for all players. We play games like Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu, Traveller, Fate, and others.

This group is based in South East Mississauga.   We are a group of volunteer knitters and crocethers who make strips that are stitched to each other’s strips to create blankets which are then donated to shelters for those in need.
Strip dimensions - 4 feet long by at least 8 inches high (strips can be higher).
Strips must have straight edges to be able to be stitched to other strips.
Yarn is supplied to members.  Yarn supplied is expected to make strips or full sized blankets.  Full sized blankets must be a minimum of 5' 5" in height.
(If you wish to use your own supplied yarn to make blankets of different sizes, that is fine, but the groups yarn supply is minimal, hence the ‘restrictions’ to the 48” strips or blankets of only the 5’ 5” size).
Donations of yarn (even those small little balls you may have leftover from other projects) are always welcome.
At various times, this group may have initiatives for making winter wear (hats, scarfs, etc), donations of other crafted items, etc - please keep an eye on the site for these types of events, otherwise the groups main focus will be strips for blankets (or full sized blankets).  
(The group will not regularly be making kitty blankets as in the previous group - we are going to solely be focused on strips and blankets for the time being).
Please be sure to tie in all loose ends on your strips and/or blankets - it causes me a lot of extra work and wasted time to tie in loose ends.   
If you are making a full size blankets (5’ 5”), you can make them more narrow than 48”, but please do not go less than 40-42”.   
Thank you and I’m looking forward to working with you all making blankets and helping those in need.

Wilderness Corps is for people who enjoy Backpacking, Hiking, Wilderness Stewardship, and Trail Maintenance in the beautiful and rugged Sierra Mountains while socializing with other like-minded individuals. 

Do you want to stay in shape and give back at the same time? During the Summer months, we offer a variety of activities for people of all ages. We provide front country trips between 5 to 10 miles per day in length to moderate to advanced trips 10 + miles in length per day. These trips are geared towards 1) Keeping public trail access open and 2) providing wilderness stewardship in the Wilderness Area's we support, and 3) assist forest visitors and educate them about Leave No Trace and outdoor ethics. 
In the winter months, we have our Winter Program which is geared towards supporting the Offroad Snow Vehicle Department, of the High Sierra Ranger District. There are about 230 miles of Winter Trails in and around Huntington Lake Area, and half of that gets cleared each year. The Winter Program gives volunteers an opportunity to come out and volunteer to do a different variety of activities, like get certified to operate a snowmobile, get your First Aid and CPR Certificates, learn to operate a chainsaw safely with supervision. 

Most events will be scheduled on weekends along with the occasional weekday and/or holiday trips. During the summer season, there will be a lot of extended trips into the backcountry. 2018/2019 will be much like years past where Wilderness Corps clears the public trails in the Dinkey Lakes Wilderness, and now through collaboration, we will be assisting with trail clearing in the Kaiser Wilderness. For those interested in multi-day activities, there will be a lot of backpacking/camping trips scheduled during the spring, summer, and autumn seasons. For the 2018/2019 Winter, we now have a Winter Program which focuses on Offroad Snow Vehicle use and the recreation management activities associated with this. Volunteers are encouraged to apply for this program,

Hiking and backcountry travel can be a dangerous and unpredictable activity. It is ALWAYS recommended you bring sufficient supplies of drinking water, snacks/food, a small first aid kit, sunscreen, insect repellent, and a flashlight to all outdoor activities and know your limits. Of equal importance is that you have the proper type of footwear and clothing. Please match the hike to your skill level.
If you have any questions feel free to reach out to our organizers.. We will be using the Forum (link in the menu bar) to post information related to getting started with our trail crew.

Wilderness Corps is a registered non-profit agency and based out of Monterey, CA.

Calling all board, card, and miniature game enthusiasts to form a regular gaming group in Kochi (Cochin)! Welcoming all who have a love of gaming get-togethers.

I'm sure many of us Introverts remember being called out at some point of time or the other, "Why are you so quiet? What is wrong with you?"
There is nothing wrong with being an Introvert. This is a group for the Introverts of Bangalore. We're the people who believe that it is okay to be quiet, by yourself and enjoy solitary activities. However, introverts also love having a social life and deep discussions. This is a group where you won't be judged for being quiet.
**** What is this group about? ****
This is a group to do something new every week. We are not limited to doing only one kind of event in this group. We do fun stuff or timepass every meetup. It's a good way to let go of stress and meet more people.
Some of the activities that we do are:Play some group games (could be board games, or teaming-based, or oldies like catch-catch, chain-chain)Check out the latest blockbuster movie, or a popular play,Try out a unique new restaurant nearby,Bring your parents for an outing (So that they can also break free from their routine)Read a Novella and discuss it (it's less time consuming than a book club)Kite FlyingTree plantation activity (something good for the environment)MeditationRiddles/Brain/Puzzles TeasersAnd a whole lot more.Try out whatever suits your interests. If there's any kind of meet that you would like to see then do let me know.
It is highly recommended for new members to join the "Get to know you" meetup. If you haven't attended this meetup earlier then you should attend it once. This is scheduled once every month and it gives me a chance to know you, what you're expecting from the group. It's also a chance for you to meet other new members, and form new connections.

It is FREE to join the group and to attend any SoCal Hikers & Trail Builders' events. Consider this group as friends getting together.  We post events such as hikes, backpacking trips, out-of-town events, road trips, wine tastings, etc.  The group also maintains trails in the Angeles National Forest and other local trails in order to give back to the community.  

If you are interested in leading or hosting an event, please DM one of the group's organizer.

The leaders in this group aren't professional or trained hike leaders. You are responsible for yourself. By signing up for these events, you and your guests agree not to hold the SoCal Hikers organizers responsible for whatever happens to you on these events.

This is the HQ for Cheers to our Public Lands Hike & Happy hour series! Here's where we will post updates on each hike & happy hour and let our attendees in on details leading up to the events.
If you are interested in attending any of our events Please, fill out our RSVP form here!

DoSomethingNew (or DSN) is a social group for adults of all ages in Calgary & the surrounding area.
Originally started on the MU platform, we've gained over 10,000 members in 11 years.
It's time for a change, though - even we need to do something NEW once in a while, so we're checking out DownToMeet to see if it can help us grow bigger & better!
Our goal is to provide opportunities to have fun group gatherings, with an emphasis on socializing & making friends.
As the name implies, we try to offer 'new' or 'interesting' or 'unique' things to do - while some may seem like standard activities (bowling, pub nights, museum walks), we often find truly one-off, funky & weird things to do - or we make 'em up!!
Regardless of your interests, there will usually be SOMETHING you find interesting to check out with us.
Stay tuned as the spring & summer approach, for fun things to do in & around Calgary.
Anyone can join!
