About us
This group is for young adults in Denver who would like to have adventures, in and outdoors, with new and old friends. If you're in Denver and would like to make some new friends, come join us!
We want to extend a strong welcome specifically to people who are new in town. This is a group where you will fit in and make your first friends. CO native? You too.
We do a wide variety of events - board games, happy hour, concerts, amusement parks, camping, road trips - if you have a suggestion, just tell an organizer.
We ask that you lead by example, and we'll do our best to do the same.
Do the right thing. Be friendly. Be tolerant.
Meetup costs around $200/year, plus what we spend on materials for you. We don't charge dues, please offer a few bucks to help out if you can.
If you would like to become an organizer, thoughtfully plan an event, then ask an existing organizer to sponsor your event to start our mentorship process.
Featured event
Annual Corn Maze / Pac-man Tag 🌽 😈 🌕
A note about the waitlist:
I have capped the event since I posted in another Meetup group and since I only have so many headbands and coins for the game. If you are still on the waitlist the night of the event, you are still welcome to come hang out - there is plenty to do at the farm! You may also be able to jump in on a later game as some may only want to play 1 round of pac-man.
Play a live version of the nostalgic game in a corn maze!
Anderson Farms has one of the biggest corn maze fields in the region and is one of the few that stays open at night.
ACTIVITY SCHEDULE:
- 6:30 - meet near corn maze entrance for intros, set up, instructions
- 7:00 - start playing games inside the corn mazes
- 9:00 - wrap up games then chill by the fire pits
