What we’re about
This group is for seasoned single professional individuals, primarily solo. It’s the original and first group of 50+ and Singles. I want to create a group that is dedicated to a more mature group of fun loving and still young individuals to come together and network and meet in an environment that is not a "dating" but rather a social group to enjoy good times and good cheer! There seems to be a lot of Happy Hour Groups dedicated to the 20, 30 & 40 year old's and that's fine but this is for the rest of us! I plan on having at least once a month on a Wednesday a Happy Hour Meet and Greet & usually a dinner or dancing on possibly a different night. I sometimes combine with my Fun Lovers of Travel & Local Events Group. Come join, have fun and make new friends! I try to balance events by wait listing signups and pulling from there. If you do not like this method then maybe this is not the group for you.
It is my intent to bring people together to meet and enjoy each other’s company and form new friendships! That is what drives me. Seeing smiling faces of those having fun and enjoying themselves is the best feeling I can have. There are many close friendships that have developed and this also warms my heart.
***NOTE THIS IS NOT A DATING SITE AND YOU WILL BE REMOVED IMMEDIATELY IF YOU CONTACT MEMBERS VIA MESSENGER THAT YOU HAVE NOT MET.***
I do not mind questions if it is to clarify some confusion, however, I do put a lot of time, energy and sometimes personal money into doing this.
(organizers pay Meetup $180 every 6 months to have up to three sites + supplies, (wrist bands, balloons, & shortfalls).
All I am asking is that before you ask a question, that might already be spelled out in the meetup, PLEASE take the time to CAREFULLY READ it completely first.
If you have a complaint I would like to hear from you in private. Please don't post them on a meetup. I do not want negativity in the group and I have and will do all that I can to avoid that. I do remove people who are not polite or are not a good fit with the group.
With all of that said, I love love love this group of wonderful people and hope this year is even more fun for all.
This is YOUR group….please help me make it greater!!
I am not fond of NO SHOWS. If there are restaurant reservations and or a wait list and you do not bother to show up you will may be immediately removed from the group if you do not let me know of a situation that prevented you from attending. I know that things do come up in life and I just need to hear from you and I will wave based on reason. I sometimes have to give my credit card to guarantee a number. That goes for many fine restaurants. If you do not show up it reflects bad on me, our group and Meetup in general. Do not double book. A good way to remember your COMMITMENT is to put it on your personal calendar. In the app for Meetup you can click on the symbol next to the event and it will ask to add to calendar! I STRONGLY suggest that you use this feature.
My time as well as yours and all of my member is valuable, please be respectful of that.
Last but not least ...some of us have allergies to heavy colognes due to asthma etc....please refrain from wearing a heavy cologne.
