New Yorkers Living in Tampa Bay Area

Saint Petersburg, FL

New Yorkers Living in Tampa Bay Area
**Calling all Native New Yorkers** \- and we don't just mean just the 5 boroughs\, wherever you lived in New York state\. If you have fond memories from there and want to hear a familiar accent\, share laughs\, memories and fondness for things that just didn't travel down I\-95 with you \(good food\, good shows and friends\, fun cruises and more\) or just want to explore your new surroundings with those who "get" your wit and sense of humor\, then this is the group for you\.   **Membership Requirements and Policies**   We set **no age restrictions**. Our members are 45 and up and are a mixture of singles and couples.   **To join**, for security & recognition purposes, please post a photo of yourself; the Brooklyn Bridge or your pet is not acceptable. New members will not be approved without a recognizable photo and valid email contact information. Please complete the profile questions and agree to the policies and await acceptance.   Our events are primarily located in the local tri city area, St Petersburg, Clearwater and Tampa.   Although Meetup does charge an annual fee, **our group does not charge** members annual dues. Some members do occasionally voluntarily donate funds to help cover costs of running our group and this is greatly appreciated.   Please **RSVP** for a meetup only if you are responding “Yes” (A “No” response is not necessary, as it is implied by not responding).  RSVP deadlines vary for each event and are determined by the event organizer based on the venue management requirements. Anyone who responds to an event after the deadline or after the maximum number of attendees is reached will be placed on a “wait list”. We ask that you be respectful and considerate toward those on the wait list by cancelling or updating your “No” response or updating your number of guests attending no later than 48 hours prior to the event. Late cancellations will be considered a **“No Show**”.  Any member with two or more “No Shows” will be removed from the group.   All members are **expected to conduct themselves appropriately,** in a manner that represents the positive, friendly spirit of the group. This applies to conduct toward other members and event staff, both at events and online.   **Deposits** are requested for shows and for other large events. We have begun requesting deposits for some restaurants for dinner reservations. This is due to the fact that more and more restaurants have started requiring a guaranteed minimum number of attendees or minimum dollar amount for large groups. If a deposit is required for a dinner event, you will be asked to mail your check promptly to the organizer.  Checks will be held until the event, at which time, the deposit will be returned to the attendees. If you have paid your deposit and updated your RSVP to “No” by the deadline, arrangement will be made to refund your deposit.   Please carefully read event details and requirements before responding to avoid any confusion or misunderstandings. If you have any questions about an event, please feel free to contact the event organizer.  Arlyne is the primary organizer for our group and there are currently seven additional co-organizers.    **To remain an active member**, we ask that you attend at least 2 events per year. If you no longer wish to be a member, we request that you be considerate and remove your profile from our meetup group.   We are a fun-loving group of NYERs and we welcome new members with open arms. All members are encouraged to make suggestions for future events related their own experiences, interests or hobbies. Please contact Arlyne or other organizer, if you have a suggestion. If you would like to host an event, you can choose the activity, the location and time. Simply contact Arlyne, so she can insure there is not a conflict and set you up as a host on meetup. The more suggestions and hosts we have, the greater the variety of event types and venues, the better for all.
