Welcome to the "Make New Friends" Group! This group is for meeting new people for friendships and/or networking. The members of this group are generally in their 20/30s (most members are 25-35).

No paid advertising is allowed. I will never charge a membership fee, but donations are welcome. Feel free to PM me if you’re interested in donating. Now for the rules! I’m not big on a lot of rules so here are some... * Be respectful to everyone! * All events are welcomed! It is up to the host to decide what events they want to host. If you're going to host an event that's mainly for your business, please contact me first for approval. If you don't like an event that's posted, simply do not attend. * If you're not going to show up to an event, please change your RSVP, comment or text the event host. Each events have certain rules and restrictions, please make sure to read each event descriptions. * **Also, this is NOT a dating or singles only meetup group. There are both couples and singles here so if you start to get creepy or make others feel uncomfortable, I will have to remove/ban you. Do not harass or message people for their photos. If you get reported, you will be deleted, banned and reported to Meetup.** **Disclaimer: By attending any events in this group, you and any guest(s) you bring agree to follow the meetup and group’s rules, including COVID guidelines.

Welcome all who are seeking to make friends over a cup of coffee and conversation (or sometimes at a different event)! I'm new to Santa Cruz, and creating this group for others who are seeking positive vibes connections because: the pandemic created some big transitions and loneliness, you're new to the area, looking to find friends to attend other events with, you're into amplifying kindness by connecting with others, want a space to be yourself or you're just working on getting yourself out there. Let's make this a supportive positive space!

Welcome to the San Jose Munchyfest Friends and Family Group! Our diverse community focuses on fun, support, and self-empowerment through action. Join us at our food truck and farmers market to gather and share!

Hoping to start a group for 30ish+ women who do NOT have it all figured out and want to make some new friends. Feel free to complain, life is hard, come as you are! What's with all this "positive conversation only--" we're human, we can't be positive all the damn time! Activity ideas: potluck picnics to enjoy the nice weather, meet at cafes for pastries & coffee & conversation, lunch, dinner, basic bitch stuff :) Est. June 2023 💗

This group has many types of activities: Boardgames, Karaoke, Hikes, Dance, Theatre Outings, Sport Events, Metaphysical (Meditation, Tantric Learning, Reiki, Massage, etc.), Poker, Sharing Cooking & Baking, Movie Night, Improv Night, and Anything else you suggest.

Really! Suggest something!

And when it comes to Board Games...I am often asked "What kind of Games do you play?"
A pretty accurate answer to "What kind of board games do we play" is:
"Euro-Strategy games, as found on BoardGamesGeek.com."

That is not necessarily the most helpful answer, tho.  The actual range of games vary from super-simple (learn in 5 minutes, play in 10 minutes) to very involved (learn in 45 minutes, play in 4 hours, takes a dozen games before you really "get it")...So, chances are if you think to yourself "I like playing board games"...you'll probably find someone here who likes what you like :-)

***Check our Calendar!***

There's so many events per month, it's the only way to know what's coming up! We're all busy professionals, normal people, who want to make the most of our time away from work. We want to do more with our evenings than just sip a drink and check out the cuties in a bar. We want to take a break from trying to hook-up and just have fun together. Since we're not focused on trying to hook-up, single people and coupled people and even N-tupled people can freely join in and we'll all enjoy greater fun.

Many Events are in private home venues, for a very relaxed and comfortable interaction. These events include food, drink, and always interesting people.

If you have an interesting event you'd like to run or host, please contact me (Paul++) and we'll find a way for you to run an event.

It will be important in helping you get situated with players of similar levels: Determine your tennis rating using National Tennis Rating Program (NTRP) categories. The U.S. Tennis Association developed the NTRP rating system and it is the most accurate rating system available. Player levels are based on a scale from 1.0 to 7.0, but our divisions are based on levels from 2.0 - 5.0. 1.0 This player is just starting to play tennis.1.5 Has limited experience and is still working primarily on getting the ball into play. 2.0 Needs on-court experience. Has obvious stroke weaknesses but is familiar with basic positions for singles and doubles play.2.5 Learning to judge where the ball is going although court coverage is weak. Can sustain a short rally of slow pace with other players of the same ability. 3.0 Fairly consistent when hitting medium-paced shots, but is not comfortable with all strokes and lacks execution when trying for directional control, depth or power. Most common doubles formation is one-up and one-back.3.5 Has achieved improved stroke dependability with directional control on moderate shots, but still lacks depth and variety. Starting to exhibit more aggressive net play, has improved court coverage and is developing teamwork in doubles. 4.0 Has dependable strokes, including directional control and depth on both forehand and backhand sides on moderate shots, plus the ability to use lobs, overheads, approach shots and volleys with some success. Occasionally forces errors when serving and teamwork in doubles is evident. Rallies may be lost due to impatience.4.5 Starting to master the use of power and spins and beginning to handle pace, has sound footwork, can control depth of shots and is beginning to vary game plan according to opponents. Can hit first serves with power and accuracy and place the second serve. Tends to overhit on difficult shots. Aggressive net play is common in doubles. 5.0 Has good shot anticipation and frequently has an outstanding shot or exceptional consistency around which a game may be structured. Can regularly hit winners or force errors off of short balls and can put away volleys, can successfully execute lobs, drop shots, half volleys and overhead smashes and has good depth and spin on most second serves.5.5 Has developed power and/or consistency as a major weapon. Can vary strategies and styles of play in a competitive situation and hit dependable shots in a stress situation. 6.0 Generally do not need NTRP ratings. Rankings or past rankings will speak for themselves. The 6.0 player has obtained a sectional and /or national ranking.6.5 The 6.5 player has extensive satellite tournament experience.7.0 The 7.0 player makes his living from tournament prize money.Courtesy NTPR If you know the courts you will be playing at feel free to contact the event host so they can help you get situated and introduce you to the other players. Don't be shy. **So lets have some fun out there and play Tennis !**

**Hello** **With Martha's support, I accepted taking over this Meetup group. Given my experience leading other Meetup hiking events, I will do my best to lead this group's members in hiking and other events in the Bay Area. Overtime, I hope the group members sustain an inner excitement to get out for a hike and explore, making an adventure of each event. Hopefully, there will be other members that may want to be assistant organizers and lead events. I would like to see the group extend group events beyond the Bay Area - other parts of California, the US, and America. To sustain the group's foundation with encouraging and uniting folks of Hispanic (Latin) culture in hiking among themselves and others, I encourage members to invite friends to become members of the group. With this in mind, I thought it would be appropriate to change the name of the group to reflect a new chapter going forward.** **Aventuras de America** **Look forward to meeting you.** **Tom** **Hiking/Trail Etiquette** **http://www.hikingdude.com/hiking-etiquette.php** * Stay on the trail. Do not cut switchbacks or take shortcuts. * Stay to the right on wider paths. * Pass on the left. * When overtaking someone, let them know you are approaching and will be passing on their left. You may hear a biker call out, "On your Left!" as he comes up from behind. That means you should stay to your right. * Whenever you stop for a view, a rest, or to yield, move off the trail * Hikers going uphill are working hard and should be given the right of way * Greet people you meet :) * When hiking in a group, yield to single or pair hikers. * When hiking in a group, hike single file or take no more than half of a wide trail. * Avoid loud voices. * Read trailhead guidelines. There may be specific rules for the trail you are on. * Pack It In - Pack It Out. (don’t litter). **"Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints".**
