Meet new friends groups near Morrow, OH

We are a group of 30’s and 40’s ish people who are divorced/separated with kids. We look for fun places around Dayton and SW Ohio to meet up. This can be with the kids or without the kids. Whether you’re looking for casual friendships, dating, or something else, you are welcome to join. We want everyone to feel welcome. We will be an active group once we are up and running. I just started the page so once we have a good amount of members, we will start scheduling events!

This is a group for Cincinnati-area moms, dads, and/or parents who have a young child or are expecting the arrival of a child soon. The goal is to create an in-person support network and make new friends. Parenting is hard—so why not have some friends in the area who can relate?

WELCOME to an exciting group of African-Americans and Special Friends of any culture or nationality.  Average age range is 40 to 60+. Younger people comfortable with this age group may join as well. The purpose of Black Love and Friends Cincinnati is to provide a bevy of FUN activities and events where people can congregate and make new friends in an easy social networking way. We dine out, dance, go to festivals, kayak, horseback ride, helicopter ride, get lost in the corn maze, and so many more activities! 😍 We love, honor and respect our Men and Women. Members are encouraged to offer ideas of activities and events that they would enjoy participating in. **RSVP POLICY: RSVP ONLY IF YOU INTEND TO COME TO THE EVENT. IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT, PLEASE CHANGE YOUR RSVP TO "Not Going" THE MORNING OF THE EVENT OR WHEN THE ORGANIZER/EVENT HOST REQUEST THAT YOU DO SO. IF YOU DO NOT, YOU WILL GET FLAGGED AS A "No Show". THREE NO SHOWS AND YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. CL Connie McWilliams** We welcome members to become  Event Hosts. We would post the event you’re interested in, and you greet the members as they come together. There may be other responsibilities yet all can be done with minimal effort. **PHOTO POLICY:** Events may be photographed or recorded. By attending events, you grant BLACK LOVE AND FRIENDS (all locations) the right to use your name and image as recorded and/or photographed, to promote BLACK LOVE AND FRIENDS and release the groups from all liability associated with the use of your name, image and statements. Black Love and Friends Cincinnati was born out of its sister group "Black Love & Friends: Grown Sexy Wise and Mature"  (now "Black Love Family and Friends...,") in Greater Cincinnati. Come join us! Get from behind the computer, come out and have a social life! And know our abiding theme, *“It’s all about L-O-V-E...”*

All ladies who are looking to make new friends for fun weekday get togethers. We will be meeting for lunches, brunches and/or movies. Whether it's your day off, or you are a stay-at -home mom needing an afternoon out with friends, or retired and looking for something to do......come join us! Ladies of all ages are welcome to join our group! RULES: If you have signed up for an event, and you are on the “Going” list OR the “Waitlist” and decide you cannot attend, it is required that you “cancel.” If a member has two no-shows (without canceling), I’m sad to say they will be removed from the group. I’m sorry to have to implement this, but it’s not fair to others when people just don’t show up without letting us know. I hope you all understand. Thank you. 🙂

Welcome to Crazy Kayak Adventures Tribe! We are into kayaking, camping, nature walks, hiking, bicycling, backpacking or just sharing a love for the outdoors. If you enjoy paddling rivers, creeks and lakes, this is the group for you! Our group is intended for both beginning and experienced recreational kayakers from the Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky areas to share their passion for the sport of kayaking. Again, all skill levels are welcome! Keep in mind that paddling involves some inherent risk. Because of this, some paddles may not be appropriate for new or beginner paddlers. You must read and accept our release of liability prior to joining or attending any event. Our agenda is to safely promote the sport of kayaking & camping, to relieve the apprehension that beginners always have and help familiarize kayakers & campers with the beautiful natural world and fun that kayaking & camping offers. We kayak our favorite lakes and slow-moving rivers, increase our skills, demonstrate and share our equipment with novices, encourage our children and grandchildren to take up our favorite pastime. Lets have fun with old friends and new! It's all about the Campfire! Enjoy Crazy Kayak Adventures! We are here to have fun and We're glad you are here!

I’m looking to get a group together to meet up and chat and work on any fiber art (crochet, knitting, etc) I want this opportunity to meet others that share the same or similar interests and to build lasting friendships. No set place for meeting just yet as I need to have a group that is interested. Once established I will update with meeting locations in the area or Loveland or Milford. Hope to hear from y’all soon!

We are a group who would like to meet and have fun playing games. WE will meet at Mavericks on Thursdays around 5 if you would like to come earlier that is also fine. Bring your favorite games and we will try to get them in. My favorite games are Catan and Ticket To Ride. I do have all of the expansions to both games but I will try to get a variety of games to play so that anyone who comes can play. I do not want anyone to be left out. The address is 1065 Reading Road, Mason , Ohio 45040.

Our group is for ladies in any phase of life who want to make new friends, support other women, and get out of the house for some fun. We meet at various locations, usually on the Eastside of Cincinnati - Anderson, Eastgate, Milford, etc. (we do occasionally expand outside those areas). We try to mix up our events - dining out with brunch, wine tastings, movies, dinner, cookouts, singo, trivia, and other local fun adventures and social events. And, we may throw in the occassional overnight or weekend adventure. Many of us work during the day so most of our meetups will be evenings or weekends. If you have littles, please leave them with a responsible adult and come join us! Those who join should be committed to open-minded and positive communication within a diverse and inclusive group of females! NO hate, NO-isms, NO Debbie Downers, and NO 'phobias please. We are excited to have as many ladies as possible attend each event! Please understand that v*enues are often reserved for our group and their staffing can be determined based upon our expected attendance. Reduced numbers are a direct reflection on our group, and the organizers, and may cause venues to not accept future reservations.* Therefore, we do have some guidelines on attendance to ensure the integrity of our events. We ask that you: * Only RSVP to events that you know you definitely will attend. Please do **NOT** use your RSVP as a placeholder. * If you RSVP to an event and are unable to attend (because hey, life happens), please extend the courtesy of letting the organizer know, or change your RSVP to "No" as soon as you know you cannot attend. Two or more last minute cancellations (less than 24 hours prior to an event) *may* result in removal from the group. * **PLEASE DO NOT "NO SHOW."**  Attendance for each event is tracked and, unfortunately, if you "No Show" two times you will be removed from the group (and we really don't want to do that!). * Additionally, we want members who are engaged in our group - so be sure to visit often, and attend events! We delete anyone has not visited our group for more than a year. We often communicate through the MeetUp email system with additional details about our group or an event you're scheduled to attend, so please ensure your MeetUp profile/account is set up to receive emails. Do you have something fun you'd like to do but need a friend (or ten) to do it with? We are happy to chat with those interested in being a co-organizer/event host for our group. Having a team of people coordinating and hosting events will expand our activities and grow our group (more new friends!)! Message our organizer, Donna, if you're interested in becoming a GNO co-organizer/event host, even if it's just one event. Also reach out if you have a suggestion for something fun you'd like to see the group do! We also want to hear from you - please complete the survey using the link below to help us learn more about you and what you're interested in getting from this group! https://forms.gle/thtnTNYfYhyXhCZz8 Thanks again for joining us! We can't wait to see you at a future GNO event!

Helpful Friends Network of SW Ohio – Support and Social Events for the Herpes HSV-1 and -2 Community What we're about: Helpful Friends Network is a PRIVATE member-run social group for adults in Southwest Ohio (the Cincinnati and Dayton areas) and northern Kentucky. Our organization is for adults 30 and over who have been diagnosed with Herpes Simplex Virus Types 1 and/or 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2). We are also open to their partners. We serve those who may be interested in meeting, sharing their experiences and socializing with others without fear or stigma. It's good to share social encounters with those who face the same uncertainties and challenges of living and/or dating that you do. Our community strives to not only be a social network for our members but also a group that promotes support and education rather than ignorance and shame. Helpful Friends Network is a Members-Only community. Therefore, information posted on our site will only be accessible to other members of this Meetup group. We welcome everyone 30 and above who is interested in making new friends, sharing fun monthly activities together, and meeting and interacting with others who share our surprisingly common situation. While our group description is viewable to non-members, only people who carry genital herpes (HSV-1, HSV-2) viruses or their partners may join. Since this population of those with the virus includes 1 in 6 adult Americans, you know that you are not alone. Isn't it better to know that, even if you are non-symptomatic now, you are among people who share your concerns? Only approved members can view info about our monthly group “Talk-It-Over” discussions and fun social events and other content. As you are well aware, herpes does not discriminate and neither do we. We welcome people from 30 to 100, all ethnicities, all professions, religions, political affiliations and outside interests. Whether you come as a single or a couple, are introverted or outgoing, we are here for you. We're a diverse and wonderful mix of people and we strive to make the most of it! Those who are new to this situation are especially welcome to the group. We make special efforts to introduce you to other friendly members so that you’ll feel right at home. We are also a very discreet group. If you would not like for others to see this or other groups you are part of, you can hide your groups in your Meetup settings. This can be done by clicking on "My Groups" in the middle of your Meetup profile and choosing to hide your groups, making them private. If you share our condition and situation, we urge you to join us! You are not alone!

Let’s bring back game nights! Ladies if you’re looking to meet new friends and play board & card games, then join our group! We’ll meet in the West Chester & surrounding area for our games. Feel free to message me your favorite games and I’ll start a list.

**Welcome to Greater Cincinnati's largest singles organization** where Cincinnati-area singles over 45 can meet, network, socialize with and get to know other single professionals just like you! Come to the CINgles.Net Meetup and develop new friends...and maybe more! We generally host social events around Cincinnati and the surrounding areas, mainly for singles from 45 through 75. If you fall just outside that range, don't worry, we don't check IDs at the door. These events include cocktail parties, dinner parties, dinner dances, wine tastings, theme parties and dances, after-work gatherings, charity events, festivals and other low-key but fun social get-togethers. Attendance varies widely by event, from anywhere around 20 singles to over 100 singles. It is a great way to meet and get connected! When an event is planned you will get a notification. Please choose "Yes" if you would like to attend. There is no need to choose "No" if you don't wish to attend. The "No" designation is for those who previously said "Yes" but now need to notify us that they have changed their plans. Please read our "[Crew Rules](https://goo.gl/Cd4sj5)" This is a group for anyone looking for good times, new adventures, and meeting new people. If you would like to be a host just let us know via message or when you join in your answers. Everyone was a new member once so don't let that hold you back! [https://www.meetup.com/Cingles.Net-Social-Network-for-Cincinnati-Singles-Over-45/](https://www.meetup.com/Cingles-Net-Social-Network-for-Cincinnati-Singles-Over-40/) **MEMBERS**: If a stranger messages you, please let an organizer know; we will do everything we can to stop unwanted messages. We will ban them. It is creepy (and probably a scam or player) if someone messages a member they have not met (other than hosts on an event you are going to or interested in). Don't send instant messages through Meetup to folks you haven't met. Propositions to meet outside of Meetup events to a virtual stranger are creepy. Of course, a relevant message to an event host regarding an upcoming meetup is different. Thank you for your consideration. Players, there are plenty of other sites if you just want to hook up one on one, don't make folks feel unsafe here. If you have done a meetup with someone and want to send them a good-to-see/meet-you follow-up that is totally different, but if they do not reply or aren't interested don't be a "Meetup creep". Of course, it's great if folks "meetup" and some magic develops. So please remember while it is fun to "meetup", this group is not "hookup.com" or "match.com". Not everyone here is single or seeking a romance. Remember if you receive an unsolicited message or suspicious or inappropriate behavior, please report it to Senny, as it can be grounds for immediate dismissal of violating party. They probably are spamming others here and in other groups. We will ban them.
