If you're not familiar with how meetups work, think of it as the OPPOSITE of online networking:  instead of meeting friends and dates through chatrooms, profiles and email before seeing them in person like you do online, at a meetup, you mee …

We are a culturally diverse, mature, fun and down to earth group, with a mission to provide fun adventures and great learning to our children and also provide support and build solid friendships for us adults and learn from each other. "It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself. ~Joyce Maynar …

No one likes to hang out alone...especially me. I'm a member of other meet-ups but being single and a parent (and unbelievably cool :-) ) I miss out due to conflicts with my parental calendar. Also, let's face it, it's really tough to make friends after a certain age especially when kids are involved and you are not originally from the area. So I figure, why not start my own meet-up and catch people on the fly? This group is not about dating, not about social networking, not about one particular …

We often think of life as a struggle to have things (time, money, success etc.), so that we can do things (have fun with kids, buy the mansion, revive the relationship), so that we can be something (be happy, content, peaceful). Is it possible we’ve got this reversed? Is it possible that we first need to be in a certain state, that will in turn inspire us to do things, and that in turn will attract the things we want. I think there is something to it and a lot of us are discovering exactly this. …

BRAND NEW GROUP! Started 3/14. We are a fun, down-to-earth women who like to talk, laugh, eat, drink and even learn a little all while cultivating new, meaningful friendships. If you are anything like me you have realized that all of your friends have either moved away (or you have moved away), have small children or just aren’t interested/don’t have time to “hang out” anymore. But when you want to go out, wouldn't it be nice to have a "crew?" You know, like Sex & The City. Some of the larger gr …

We have wonderful, respectful omnivorous friends that we love dearly, but I also think it's special and important for our children to have other friends that they can share their beliefs, choices, and snacks with! :) We'll get together for potlucks, at restaurants, picnics, hikes, park days, sanctuaries, festivals and more! The Vegan Parenting Playgroup welcomes children of all ages and although we're based in S …

I want to start a small group of women between the ages of 35 and 45. We all have busy lives and time gets away from us. Things happen to us personally whether it is dealing with our own sickness, kids, marriage, in laws, parents getting older, friends passing away, so many things happen as we get older. There are times when we lose pieces of ourselves along the way. Sometimes we have those "Aha!" moments but don't quite know how to put it all in place. I think with each new pending decade and p …

You're cool and interesting, possibly fascinating and little bit awesome. It just so happens that you're a queer girl in San Francisco addled by what the City has to offer. You want to go to events and to do things and you want your Entourage accompanying you. We get it. We want that, too. Therefore, we can be your people. Our new motto: Let's go together. Who are you? Female: past, present, or future. Over 21, definitely, but more likely in your late 20's to early 40's. You're new to San Franci …

This is a group for Christian homeschooling moms with a focus on young children 0-5's type venues to connect--with a calendar populated with lots of activities for them--so we can enjoy all the fun things while they're young that are geared toward little kids such as Happy Hollow, Palo Alto Jr. Museum & Zoo, going to parks, etc., and some other field trips, and form intimate relationships for the moms and have lasting friendships. I feel like these days while they're little are as precious as di …

Ever have one of those days where you just feel like you're trudging through? Where everything feels "off" and you'd be happy just to crawl back in bed and try again tomorrow? These days happen to all of us and they're the Universe's way of telling us to take a break. Think about it: we are constantly moving about in high gear.... Between our jobs, the kids, the carpool, the spouse, the house and everything else that falls in between, there's very little time left to just "be". But it's extrem …
