What we’re about
Welcome to the fastest growing meetup group in Pinellas County! We are a diverse social group that includes people from all backgrounds, ages, and singles and couples alike.
Some of the events we've done have included classy and casual dinner outings, happy hours, volleyball, volunteering, bike rides, fitness meetups, holiday get togethers, casual mixers and much more.
Our group has multiple organizers running many different types of events, so feel free to try out all we have to offer. If you have an idea for a meetup, we would like you to tell us so we can schedule the meetup and designate you as an event host.
This group is for people that are brand new in town or if you've been here for awhile and are looking to make new friends. All are welcome!
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cost to join the group?
Nope. Just like Facebook says, it is free and always will be. The only exception is if we're trying to get an awesome event put together and need money to reserve space or whatever we need. For example if we decide to rent a boat then we would ask you to pay your portion beforehand so we can make it happen.
Where do you do events?
We have organizers that live anywhere from downtown St Pete, to the beaches and Clearwater. All of Pinellas is our playground.
I'm new, how do I come out to an event?
Just bring a good attitude and come says hello. If Ryan and I are attending as event hosts, we will make sure that you are also introduced to the other folks in the meetup. We encourage our event organizers to do the same.
For further questions please look in the message boards, event pages or contact the head organizer.
