New and Old Friends Over 50

Waukesha, WI

You must be vaccinated. This group is for mature men and women, single or attached who enjoy getting together to explore various events, music, art, theater, games, dining out, sharing our knowledge, experiences, and having some fun. Geography is not an issue. This is a "no drama" zone. If it sounds like fun, let's try it! Feel free to make suggestions. Let the new memories begin. Please RSVP soon and often. We have many get-togethers where you can feel free to ask questions, talk about ideas, or any areas of concern. The easiest way to track our events is to look at the calendar (on your computer) located under "Events". This works better than the phone app, by displaying a regular calendar showing each day's events. Each week, we have events to choose from all around Waukesha and Milwaukee. Hope to meet you soon!

East Troy Computer Club

East Troy, WI

The East Troy Computer Club is a community-driven group of all-age, all-skill level tinkerers interested in playing with technology. We meet every other week (or so) over a variety of topics related to technology.

This club is over seven years old. Smaller meetups tend to take on a roundtable discussion format while larger turnouts/topics are more formal in presentation. Feel free to jump in on the conversation, show & tell your latest project or challenge.

Each meetup will have a theme and loose agenda to guide the group. Some will be geared towards kids, or helping grandparents out with getting their email to work. Others, and likely most often, we'll be a group of adults talking about internet and hardware technologies. A little on the advanced side, but what better group of talented folks to serve as a backbone to a club such as this!

Things we're open to meeting over:

• Arts & Craft projects utilizing technology.
• Robotics. Arduino, Raspberry Pi hardware projects.
• Web development, design, scaling and performance.
• Hands-on workshops. Such as 'intro to electronics' for children.
• Summer 'boot camps'—Computer summer camp for kids.
• Programming, Unit tests, Development tools and tips.
• GNU/Linux, UNIX and general System Administration.
• Productivity, Workflow and staying focus.
• Collecting/Mining local (meta) data.
• Practicing your presentation skills with us.
• Sprints (work on projects together, right then and there).
• Tutorials / HOWTO's - An instructor walks the group through a particular topic.
• Helping Seniors stay connected.
• Sharing tips, tricks and software.

As we grow, certain interests or projects may branch out of this club, such as working with the Public Library and other facilities. A certain card game was born out of the club, even. There is also a GitHub organization where we'll publish public projects and workshop resources; http://github.com/etcc/

We're a patient body of tinkerers invested in local community and set out to foster discovery and education of technology.

You don't have to be from East Troy to participate. Come on over!

ARTIST'S WAY MEETUP

Williams Bay, WI

This meetup was previously labelled the Shore Stories Writing Group. Its purpose was to create a safe environment wherein members would share their writings, inspire each other towards their completion, and discuss the writing and publishing process. In person engagement was set up to create the trusting atmosphere, but became less available due to various members' schedules, locations, writing and interest levels. So I'm switching the group's purpose to creativity. What inspires it, how do we recognize it, and what tools to use to insure we continue and enhance it everyday. The first tool is to introduce, individually read and perform the activities in one chapter at a time, with a weekly group check-in and discussion of Julia Cameron's, "The Artist Way." Please check the reviews on Amazon! I've been in a couple of these Artists Way groups and not only has my creativity been found and enhanced again, but have created many life long intimate friends. I'll set up the first meeting, an introduction meeting, next month. Supplies required: The Artists Way Book and journal.

Junto Waukesha (20s Friends and Socialization)

Waukesha, WI

Do you crave authentic, in-person social activities? Are you tired of being glued to your phone to get your social fix? Junto Waukesha is a social club for young adults seeking new friends and social activities. The Junto is founded on the following assumptions: 1. Meaningful, in-person social interaction is critical to wellbeing: Recognizing the fundamental human need for social connections, the Junto prioritizes the significance of robust, in-person social bonds for overall wellbeing. 2. Young people are lonelier than ever: In response to the pervasive trend of young adult loneliness and diminishing close friendships, the Junto aims to provide a solution through fostering real-world social connections. 3. Virtual communication is cheap: Virtual communication and social media can never fully satisfy the need for genuine socialization on their own. Excessive reliance on devices isolate us from each other. While we acknowledge the utility of these tools when used properly, they can never replace in-person socialization. 4. There needs to be a "common ground" for socialization: This common ground should be easily accessible, meet regularly, and be free of political/religious/ideological bend. Cost should never be a barrier to entry; participation should be free or nearly free (never more than $10). Phones should never be used during a Junto meeting. There should be an emphasis on getting to know your fellow members as individuals and encouraging mutual improvement. This is a new group so I any input from members regarding ideas and activities is welcome!

Nonfiction Book Discussion

Muskego, WI

Let’s get together monthly to discuss a member-selected nonfiction work. Books selected must be reasonably available through the library, Libby, etc. to be accessible to members without the need to purchase it. Other than that, anything nonfiction will be fair game! We’ll meet the second Wednesday of each month starting at 6:30 pm. Location will vary monthly around, primarily, the Wauwatosa, Brookfield, New Berlín, Hales Corners, and Franklin areas, with occasional visits into Milwaukee, and possibly Bay View. I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event!

Lake Geneva Sci-Fi and Geek Meetup

Delavan, WI

Welcome! This is a relaxed social and activity group for those of us that are fans of Science Fiction and all things geeky. For those of you who are into geeky genres and otherwise live a normal life. Where you don't really talk about your passion with those you work with, or who you spend your time with, because they just don't have the same passion for it... well this is a way to meet like minded individuals about your geeky passions and make friends. The goal is to schedule a variety of activities all year long and to have a regular Meetups every month, if not more often. The thing about being a Sci-Fi Fan, Superhero Fan, or other Geeky genre is that once you get to know someone who is as passionate as you are about it, you can get quite talkative and festive. If this sounds like something you are interested in, join us! The majority of members that attend our Meetups will tend to be in their 20's, 30's, and 40's, and we also welcome members in their 50's and 60's as well, so join us too! Events will take place in Lake Geneva and surrounding areas such as Whitewater, Janesville, Milwaukee, Crystal Lake, and other local areas.
