Atlanta Circle of Friends

Atlanta, GA

Atlanta Circle of Friends

This group was created with the idea in mind of expanding social circles among young professionals (mid 20s to early 40s) who enjoy recreational activities with like-minded individuals. Being active (both physically and emotionally) are an important part of a healthy lifestyle and we want to enable others to partake in fun social activities as a larger group, in order to expand their circle of friends.  We do have guidelines that we ask you be aware of.  Please stay active by visiting our meetup page (https://www.meetup.com/AtlantaCircleOfFriends) at least once every 3 months (this does not necessarily mean that you have to attend an event once every 3 months).  If you RSVP to an event with a waitlist and you do not plan to attend, we ask that you cancel your RSVP at least 24 hours in advance or notify the organizer in an emergency or unplanned incident the day of.  If you fail to attend and do not notify the organizer, you will be considered a "No Show" and will be removed from the group.  If you are on the waitlist and meetup automatically moves you to attending on the same day and you do not attend, you will not receive a "No Show". We have a Zero Tolerance policy for undesirable behavior and we ask that everyone act with maturity and respect toward each other.

New Atlanta Movie Club

Atlanta, GA

New Atlanta Movie Club
This movie meetup group is a sister site of the well-established Atlanta Movie Club Meetup group (link: https://www.meetup.com/atlantamovieclub/) which has almost 2,000 members. In a way, it is essentially an advertisement for the Atlanta Movie Club events. I was forced to open this "duplicate" meetup group as due to some bug in Meetup.com's software (which they are refusing to fix) Atlanta Movie Club events are not showing up when people outside the group search for movies. This is a group for everyone who loves and enjoys movies. We mainly focus on independent and foreign movies but not exclusively. Our meetings take place at movie theaters such as Midtown Art Cinema, and Springs Cinema & Taphouse, etc.  We certainly meet for dinner and conversation before or after the movie. We generally announce events weekly on Tuesday or Wednesday as that is when the theaters we watch movies in make their weekend schedules public. This is also a social group and we hold activities such as stand-up comedy, bar trivia, and karaoke. Please feel free to suggest event ideas. All ages and backgrounds are welcome! I am truly a movie fan and hope people alike join this group. We welcome and encourage new members, I hope all movie aficionados can find a place in this group.  Now the not so fun part. I will be enforcing a profile picture rule, therefore I will ask everyone to have a picture of their face in order to join or stay in the group. The RSVP policy is that you should un-RSVP if you can't come to the meetup, this will prevent me looking at the door and waiting for you outside the theater or wherever. If you're a no show without notice, you will get a warning and after which you will be removed from the group when you have one more No-Show. We have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy towards bad behavior. Please treat everyone with respect, as you would like others to treat you. I hope we can enjoy fun times and great movies together. Hope to see you at our next meetup! Gopi.

Loc'd In Meet Up

Atlanta, GA

Loc'd In Meet Up
Loc'd In Meet Up recently adapted the expression "Define: TRIBE" because it just fit too perfectly. We help the community by providing a safe space and resource for all. It has been such a beautiful cultivation to watch unfold over the years. We have witnessed people making authentic and genuine connections, which is so important as adults. People have been able to network, take time to relax, and have fun. With each event, our family just gets bigger and bigger. The events are welcome to all, whether you are apart of the loc community or not. All we ask is that you bring good vibes! We also have started using my platforms to highlight businesses and members of our communities in different ways. For example, in honor of Women's History Month back in March, we made an engaging Instagram post inquiring about our women business owners. This had instructions on how to be featured, which we then sent out questionnaires and had them send in photos. We went in and made story and page posts with details about them and their business. We like to throw in some fun, relatable questions as well so they ranged from how long they've been in business, to what their favorite food or color is! Loc'd In Meet Up has big goals for in person events to showcase our communities talents, business, or skills (ex, panels, cooking series, etc.). We are looking to get more of these things going soon here in 2024! The goal of Loc'd In Meet Up is to spread love, knowledge, resources, and have a good time. Find like minded individuals, define tribe.
