Life Begins at 49

Avon, OH

Hi! We have changed the name of our group from Female Friends at 49+ to Life Begins at 49. We have six new organizers that are ready to revive this group and plan some fun events around the Cleveland area. We are all brand new to this group and we are ready to welcome new friends. You can also check out our Facebook page which is under Life Begins at 49. Have you spent your 20’s, 30’s, and 40’s dedicated to career, children and family? In doing so, you may be in the same boat as many of us… through time, those early life connections with our female friends were lost and as we are getting on in age, we want to connect in meaningful relationships with other like-minded successful women. This group’s genre of gatherings will likely be eclectic. It will evolve with its members. We have discussed events such as meeting for dinner/lunch, Cedar Point, events at the Cleveland zoo, hiking, book club, knitting, pickleball, wine tasting, theater, volunteering, movies and exploring new things. We are open to ideas! Our organizers are active professionals. We are looking forward to meeting new women and building new relationships. Studies show that meaningful friendships are just as important to your health as eating proper and exercising! Women of all walks of life are welcome! The purpose of the group is for females to have a place to meet other females and build meaningful friendships. Please be responsible regarding signing up and showing up for events. If you are unable to attend an event, simply revise your RSVP to "Not Going" -- and please do so at least 1 hour prior to the event so we know not to expect you. Repeated 'No Shows' or last-minute cancellations may result in being removed from the group. We look forward to meeting you! Michelle

Film Fellowship

Bay Village, OH

Film Fellowship hosts screenings and discussions of classic and contemporary films. The group is part of Saint Raphael Parish in Bay Village, OH, but you don't have to be Catholic or Christian to attend. Our events are open to everyone. We like to show an eclectic mix of challenging and idiosyncratic films -- some are more mainstream, while others may be more obscure or not as well-known to American audiences. They don't have to be religious films, have religious characters, or be made by religious filmmakers (though some of our screenings may fall into one of those categories). Some of our past screenings include The Two Popes and Picnic at Hanging Rock. Our discussions are probing and free-flowing, with a special emphasis on spiritual and existential themes. We welcome different viewpoints, but we encourage attendees to be kind and respectful. Ultimately, our screenings are about meeting new people and finding fellowship.

"FUN"ctional Fitness Meetup Group

Rocky River, OH

We host basic introductory Functional Fitness group workouts every Saturday morning for people who are looking for a better way to workout and meet new people. If you are tired of the same old workout routine, give us a try. YOUR FIRST VISIT IS FREE. A fun environment with fun people who all just want to feel better, look better and have more energy throughout their day. Our members all say this is the best workout program they've ever tried. No one believes that they can get a great workout in less than 20-30 minutes using only body-weight exercises until they try it. We constantly change routines so you never get bored. Functional Fitness means using and improving basic movement patterns in the gym so that you become better OUTSIDE the gym. We've been doing this for over 12 years here in Cleveland and have helped thousands of people learn a new way of exercising. It works for everyone - Navy Seals, Ultimate Fighters, soccer moms and even lazy executives. We have CrossFit Certified trainers to teach you how to scale every exercise in the workout to fit your individual fitness level. Young or old, we can get you in better shape. In addition to the Saturday 11:00am workout, we have group CrossFit classes, Beginner Fitness Workouts, Executive Fitness Training, CrossFit Kids classes and Personal Training Sessions available. If you can't make it on a Saturday, we have a couple other times during the week that you can attend.

Network Fifty-Two

Westlake, OH

Network Fifty Two was founded in 2016 by Maria Jeancola, who has spent her entire career in business development and marketing. Maria attends upwards of 25 networking events per month to meet new people, market her business, and further enhance her knowledge of entrepreneurship.

Maria is that person who "knows everyone." If you need a painter, she knows one. How about a realtor? Yep, she knows a few. Need life insurance? Well, Maria knows a great guy to help. The point isn't that Maria is a social butterfly and engages in conversation with everyone that she meets...it is that she knows how to network. She knows the importance of building valuable relationships with people in all industries that she knows, likes, and trusts.

Maria reached a point where multiple times per day people were asking her for a referral, help networking, knowledge of any available jobs, and much more. She decided that out of all of the networking groups she was a part of, there wasn't one she was in love with. One that she looked forward to attending each week. And most importantly, one that she felt like she benefited from every single time she attended. So Network Fifty Two was born.

Every Thursday at noon, one of the chapters meet. They alternate bi-weekly between the westside and the eastside. There is no attendance requirement or membership fee like most other networking/referral groups. Just show up with lots of business cards, a smile on your face, and an open mind! Maria directs the meeting so that everyone gets a chance to talk and share what they do. She will go over any upcoming networking events that she knows of as well as ask the members to share any others. But the best part is at the end of the meeting, Maria makes sure that everyone leaves with at least one solid connection with another person in the group. That may be an exchange of business cards, a phone call, meeting over coffee, or something more. So far, the feedback from attendees has been phenomenal!

If you have any questions or would like to attend a meeting, please feel free to RSVP through Meetup or give Maria a call at 440-320-7320.

Cleveland 20's/30's Lesbian & Bisexual Women's Group

Lakewood, OH

If you are a young lesbian or bisexual woman in Cleveland searching for new friends and new experiences, this is the place for you! It is not especially easy to meet and network with other women in our city as the bars and establishments that cater toward women have been dwindling, and many of the events in our fair city seem to cater to an older crowd. Though there is nothing wrong with that, I have created this group in hopes that the events will give us a place to meet and an opportunity to get involved and redefine our community in new and exciting ways. Possible events will include checking out local clubs, coffee shops, dancing, community organizing, house parties, fine dining, wine tastings, camping trips, concerts, and virtually anything else under the sun! Come join us!
