This meetup is for anyone who is new to the area or just looking to expand that circle of friends.

I’m also looking for people who’s really into fitness. Our intent is to make this a fun place with diverse meetups so everyone can find something that interests them. Feel free to message one of your organizers if there's a particular event or adventure you'd like to see or if you'd like to become an event host! Always be mindful of the commitments you make with your RSVPs so that we are able to accommodate accordingly, but most of, let's have FUN!

MEETUP IS FAMILY This group is judgement and cliquey free and for members that are serious about attending events to meet the members of the group. We must have complete trust in one another and be willing to accept everyone. The goal is to be able to be friends outside of meetup as well. MEETUP IS NOT FACEBOOK Let's remember to be respectful to one another especially when we RSVP for a event. I doubt that anyone likes to wait for members who are not going to show up so please be mindful and change your RSVP or contact the host if there's a number you can reach them. I'm allowing everyone to host events based on their interest so everyone will get to be a organizer. Three no shows will get a member removed unless the host finds the excuse acceptable. Stuff like car breaking down emergencies where you can't contact the host etc will be acceptable. Please make sure let the host know early in advance if you change your RSVP. Trying to wait 30 minutes or less before the event starts or after the event starts will be considered a no show unless an emergency comes up. The host events would more likely be at the destination waiting for you by then. If you can't find the group contact the host regardless on how big or small the event is. Sometimes the host just wants you to stop by to say hi. We wouldn't stand up a real life friend date boss or doctor so let's treat the meetup host the same way. And make sure to pay attention to the details of the event so you can know what's going on and how to find everyone. After 6 months of not attending any events since you signed up you will be removed and be allowed to return when you can commit to attending the events. There's no point of being part of a Meetup group if you're not going to attend any events. The idea is to meet people that's why it's called Meetup and I'm allowing everyone to host events based on their interest. Whether or not you’re actually interested in the upcoming event or not it’s a good idea to try to attend anyways if possible just so you can get to meet the hosts and the other members attending the events. That also includes merging with another Meetup event. Any report of members being mean or not being accepting will lead to a permanent dismissal of the group. Feel free to report to me immediately if a host or a member been disrespectful or don't make you feel accepted and I will see to it that something gets done about it. Make sure to save my number. People are welcome to contact me anytime to say hello or to ask me questions about events or concerns and can find me on facebook under Anthony Earl Williams

Everyone must have a real photo for their profile. That's your identification to make sure that you are really you.

Have Fun: No matter what event I planned, unless people were having fun, the event wouldn’t be successful. Beyond all else, it is important to make sure we keep planning fun events that keep members interested. Support Local: In order to keep Raleigh unique, it’s important to support local. This helps create jobs and spur on innovation. Without unique companies and events, we wind up being ordinary and doing ordinary things. That’s not much fun. The majority of our events will be a Raleigh, NC based local establishments. Do Good: Having fun is great, but there isn’t a much better call to action than supporting a good cause. Good causes make lazy people, like me, get off their butts and participate in 5k walks or runs. How great is it to know that you can do good AND unwind all at the same time? In order for us to bring people out to an event at your establishment, Our motto for doing good is “Have a beer and volunteer”. With those simple thoughts in mind, The Raleigh Social Club was born. Raleigh is the city of Oaks and there are amazing things to do around town, if you know what you’re looking for and if you can find a fun people to explore with. So join The Raleigh Social Club and come on out to some of our amazing events!

The primary purpose of this group is to support a community of volunteers focused on building, enhancing and maintaining North Carolina's premier hiking trail, the Mountains-to-Sea Trail! The Mountains-to-Sea Trail, stretches 1,175 miles from Clingmans Dome State Park in the Great Smoky Mountains to Jockey's Ridge State Park on the Outer Banks.  The trail showcases our state's diverse landscape and culture:  mountain vistas, rolling Piedmont farms, picture-postcard colonial towns, weathered tobacco barns, old textile villages, country churches, rushing mountain streams, coastal swamps, hardwood and pine forests, lighthouses, sand dunes and miles of seashore. In addition to joining us on Meetup, where we post numerous MST workdays, we also hope you'll visit the FMST website ([ https://www.mountainstoseatrail.org](http://www.ncmst.org)) to learn more about this wonderful backyard resource and ask that you consider becoming a Friend of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail at: https://mountainstoseatrail.org//get-involved/become-a-member/ If you'd like to help build and maintain the trail and don't see a workday in your area posted on this Meetup group site, FMST has a workday going on somewhere in the state almost every weekend of the year and on some weekdays too.  For more information contact the trail crew leader in your vicinity. You can find a list of crew leaders at:   [https://mountainstoseatrail.org/get-involved/trail-workdays/](https://mountainstoseatrail.org/get-involved/trail-workdays/) Come help enhance and give back to hiking in North Carolina by helping build, enhance and maintain the Mountains-to-Sea Trail!

We want to explore all of the different things there are to do in Raleigh with a group of people who are interested in breaking free from the monotony of the routines we all can get stuck in from time to time. We want people who are able to come up with great ideas for fun things to do. From Hiking to Art shows, exploring raleigh nightlife to going ice skating. The key is to find a good group of people to go out with and maybe we'll even form some lasting friendships along the way.

I mean, why's it gotta be all about being single or being in a couple? Come as you are...bring a partner or don't. Either way you'll be accepted here.
