About us
Ladies & Gents in our 50s, 60s, 70s, etc are at a different stage of life than when we were younger. Let's get together and form a circle of friends to have fun with. Dining, theatre, movies, special events in and out of the city, happy hours, and even travel. The possibilities are endless and you are welcome to provide suggestions!
Please be sure to have a current photo of yourself on your profile! If you do not I will be unable to approve you. And please - if you cannot make a meetup after RSVPing - let me know via private message and update to not going so I am aware and able to give others the opportunity to go. No-shows will not be tolerated and you will be booted. Two late cancellations and you will be booted.
I hope that you come out and join us! Our group meetups are usually small, consisting of anywhere from 6-10 people, therefore, we really do get to know each other very well as I do not have huge crowds of people where you never get to know anyone, I just don't think that's fair to anyone.
Ours is a great group and ladies and gentlemen, who have a mutual respect for one another and have lots and lots of laughs! Hope to see you soon!
P.S. Be sure to allow notifications from Meetup, so you are able to see all the Meetup events as they come in.
PPS - check often for messages and updated. If you are on the waitlist for something, and I send you message that someone canceled and you are next, please be able to respond.
