This is a a group for people who live and work In Long Island and the surrounding area, but who recognize we are in one of the greatest metropolitan areas in the world. It's for people who are creatures of the city, with all its diversity, possibilities, opportunities, and excitement.  The point of this group is as much to allow meeting, forming friendships, and having fellowship with others whose hearts belong in the city, as it is to take trips into the city for all that it offers.  Some events are associated with Weekenddating and others are soc123, while others are not.

Some of the event types we offer are : Speed dating, Museums, bowling, pool, golf, bingo, shows, rock climbing, mingles and more. 


NOTE:  This group is NOT about seduction, wingman or pick up artists.

Long Island Ladies Having Lunch & Making Friends

Hauppauge, NY

Long Island Ladies Having Lunch & Making Friends
Welcome to Long Island Ladies Having Lunch and Making Friends! **LONG ISLAND LADIES HAVING LUNCH IS NOT TAKING NEW MEMBERSHIPS AT THIS TIME. EVENTS ARE FULLY BOOKED. PLEASE CHECK BACK IN THE FUTURE TO SEE IF NEW MEMBERSHIPS ARE AVAILABLE.** Long Island Ladies Having Lunch & Making Friends is a small group. We are modern, youthful, intelligent and tasteful women 55 and better. We are positive, upbeat, optimistic and fair. We seek pleasant, light conversation. We want to develop lasting friendships with like-minded women. We are primarily a weekday lunch group and lunches will often be at nicer restaurants. We'll also plan early dinners/happy hours, crafting, walks as well as other events. You will not be invisible, alone or ignored in a large group. Events are typically limited to 6-8 attendees. Cliques are not ok! To ensure that all attendees have a chance to be involved, events may have a "starter question" or "Random Seating Assignments". YOU MUST HAVE WEEKDAY, LUNCH TIME AVAILABILITY THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO BE CONSIDERED FOR MEMBERSHIP. New members get a 90-day trial period. ***If we are a good fit***, you will be asked to pay a yearly fee (currently $12.00). This helps cover costs charged by meetup. Please take note as to when your dues must be paid. **Meetup removes members and deletes RSVPs automatically when dues are not paid**. **This is a small group with limited membership**. **Please understand that not all membership requests are approved**. **THE FOLLOWING "DO'S" AND "DON'TS" ARE TAKEN SERIOUSLY:** **Important "Do's"**: Do participate, attend events, be computer & app savvy. Respond to messages and communicate in a timely manner. Be inclusive, fair, warm, welcoming and respectful. Be positive, cheerful & upbeat at our events. Read and review the group page regularly. If there is illness or an emergency, please try to give 4 hours cancellation notice and communicate if possible. **Important "Don'ts"**: Do not cancel often, cancel at the last minute, be a no show, regularly arrive late or engage in cliquish behavior. Do not crash events (showing up without an RSVP or getting a separate table). Do not try to control or stack any RSVP list. All of these are unfair and disruptive to our members. When requesting to join, YOUR FACE MUST BE CLEARLY VISIBLE IN YOUR PROFILE PHOTO. YOU SHOULD BE THE ONLY PERSON IN THE PICTURE. We will use the traditional 1.3 method for settling our checks. Keep track of the cost of what you order (the sub-total), then multiply that by 1.3. This will cover your entire tab including tax and tip. **You are responsible to know how to do this.** I look forward to everyone being warm, welcoming, considerate, and getting along. We are going to have some great times. It is important that we be fair and respectful of all members. **Politics, religion and other polarizing topics should be avoided**. **Business should not be solicited or conducted at events.** **If approved, you are expected to check this group's page regularly, as policies may change.** **If you do not agree with or adhere to the above policies, you may remove your membership or be removed.** I look forward to lunching and having fun together!

Our organization is very active. Most weeks we have 8 or more events to choose from, including many on weekdays and sometimes on nights and weekends for our working mothers. We're proud that over 400 different moms have participated in person in our events over the past 3 years.   Group membership is currently free because it has been subsidized by our amazing sponsors. Most of our events are completely free too and hosted by volunteers.
