Church on Tap started like this... It occurred to me one day that the older I get the less true male friendships I have.  I think this is fundamentally true for all men at some point during our journey. The older we get, the more entrenched we become. Little by little, the years pass. We plow ourselves into our families, our business, our routines...and time slips by.   Interestingly, we start to think that we really don't need friends to lean on anymore.  Men live oddly private, quiet lives and …

I started this group because while there are tons of social groups on meetup, none are tailored to just young people. Everything is more fun when done with people your age so it seemed like a great fit. Here's a group for college aged people to get together for a common interest. Activities such as hiking, traveling, restaurant dining, partying, camping, movie nights, etc are all possibilities.

House concerts and small venues are a great way to experience your favorite musicians in a more intimate and informal way. At a house concert there is no bad seat, because you are all just sitting in the living room while the musician plays just feet from you. Intermission usually includes chatting to the musician about what inspires them or why they wrote a particular song. There is usually shared food and a great opportunity to meet your fellow concert goers. Unlike big venues you really get t …

I want to get together with other aspiring/just starting out triathletes to have fun with the process and keep each other accountable in this crazy world of swim, bike and run. So far I've completed two sprint triathlons and plan to train for a 1/2 Ironman next summer.

Seattle-area ladies united in the bold pursuit of new friends, drinking, and irreverent fun-making. Lurk no more: if you were wondering where all the fun, creative, independent, literate ladies are, you found us. I started this meetup in part because I felt like so many of the other women-centric meetup groups tend to be a little heavy on the butterfly imagery or Sex and the City connotations.  Or focused around professional networking, babies, or exercise.  And those are all great things--espec …

Do you like trail running? Hard to find others to go with on weekdays? Well, look no further. This group is ideal for evening-shifters, late-risers, the unemployed, or just people looking for a workout on weekdays!  I plan for these events to start late-morning (11ish) to accommodate a different schedule, unlike most groups which start before 6am. Slow and fast runners are welcome--we can each go at our own pace, but it is nice to at least start with someone and know that others are out there.  …

This a group started by friends who want to experience new (and old) things with new (and old) friends. After looking for a Meetup of people to experience new things with, we were discouraged by the fact that there don't seem to be any groups for women of ALL ages to experience ALL that life in our community has to offer. We're in our 30's and 40's, but you can be any age. We're moms, wives, dog-moms, singles, partners, runners, walkers, foodies, picky eaters...you get the picture! If a posted a …

Hello Meet-up friends: I am looking for men and women over 55 who are seriously looking at where they may wish to retire in the near future. I am a single mom of a teenager and she will be going off to college and starting her own life in two years. I have been an educator and counselor living on a budget and contemplating moving to a warm, sunny climate. I have considered California (as expensive as it is!) or perhaps Mexico (not expensive at all). I am on the Ex-Pat blog online and enjoying re …
