We will be doing something most weekends - weather and situations permitting. This group is still new and I am looking for both members and people who want to help lead and coordinate our outings as Event Leaders and Coordinators. There is also a Facebook group and I am working on a YouTube channel, because it's great to document the "adventure" and gives those interested a glimpse into what they can expect from joining ARG.

Knees in the Breeze is not a club, but rather a group of motorcyclists that love to ride.  Our goal is to provide a space for all riders of all skill levels to [suggest] post, share and participate in safe rides and make new friends whenever possible. All motorcycles and Riders/Passengers are welcomed as long as they are legal and responsible. \* Forced Rides, are not allowed \* Colors are not worn \* Politics and Religion are not part of our group. ( This is a personal topic, keep it that way ) \* Alcohol and Drugs are not permitted. ( NO you may not have a beer at lunch ) \* Safety is the priority, anyone riding unsafely will be asked to leave the ride. \* Event hosts are needed, if you would like to lead a ride please contact me and lets get it set up. \* Fun, Respect, and individuality are important........but common sense is also a prority. Generally rides take place on the weekends and will usually last anywhere from a few hours to an all day ride. Overnight stays on the weekend can be fun, and week long adventures to who knows where can be arranged.

*Hello, friends!* It’s your neighborhood game geek. I am so happy that you, too, are interested in a recurring game night. I might just love board games more than food. They are the perfect way to spend quality social time, and I have been sorely lacking such. **We are a community** of local gamers, organizing gaming events across WV, MD, and VA. We have events every Wednesday, every other Friday, every other Sunday, 2 trivia nights/month, and more! If you know someone who would enjoy a regular group like this, please spread the word. ALL are welcome 💛 I sincerely want to welcome anyone that wants to join, which is why I am creating this meetup group - for visibility. If you clicked on it, come give it a try! • Note on Locations: This started out at my family home in Shepherdstown, WV, but we now meet at various members' homes and also gather at local spots, such as parks, breweries, restaurants, etc. If others are willing to host, as well, perhaps we could set up a rotation! If you have another suggestion, please feel free to propose it to the group. *Again, I am so happy that we are starting this and can’t wait to see you all!*

A group for moms to get out running together! Stroller friendly :) All levels welcome. Shepherdstown Mother Runners is a group created for moms who want to get out running and meet other moms. It is suitable for beginners, pregnant moms & postpartum moms. I run all of my runs pushing a stroller, and I have spare jogging strollers available (single and double) for anyone who would like to borrow one. \*Strollers can only be borrowed if you are attending a Shepherdstown Mother Runners group run. Our runs vary from 2 miles to 6 miles.. We are not training for any competition or race. We are simply getting out for a run with some company. And sometimes going for a coffee afterward :) I'm usually running a 12 min mile pace. The group will run at the speed of the slower runner. There will be stops if needed, to feed, change diaper etc.. There is no pressure to keep up or run fast ! This group really is about getting out and enjoying a run with our kids and other moms. It's important for me to have company when I go running with my kids, I feel safer and I enjoy it more. Our runs usually take place along the C&O canal. I'm going to set aside a time for one weekday MORNING group run, and one weekday EVENING group run. I usually run on the weekend, too. that can be organized in person, if anyone would like to join me. I hope to see some new faces soon :) Sarah

**Welcome to the Animal Liberation Activist Support System Meetup!** This group is dedicated to advocating for **animal rights**, promoting **ethical veganism**, and addressing **social justice issues** that intersect with animal liberation. We are a passionate, supportive community of individuals committed to making a positive impact through activism and education. Whether you're new to advocacy or a seasoned activist, you’ll find a space here for meaningful conversations, growth, and collective action on behalf of the voiceless. We believe in justice for **all beings**, human and non-human alike, and we stand firmly against all forms of oppression. It is through this logic as well as sheer necessity we are **anti-racist**, **anti-queerphobic**, and **anti-ableist**. We encourage open dialogue and self-reflection, recognizing that, despite our best intentions, we all carry biases shaped by societal conditioning. This is a space for listening, navigating emotional pitfalls and learning. We ask you to hold space for the possibility that you may be wrong and approach discussions with humility. We are all navigating a world influenced by systems that perpetuate harm, but through awareness, compassion, and solidarity, we can dismantle those systems together. Join us for insightful discussions, educational events, and actions aimed at creating a more compassionate and just world for all beings.

We hold educational meetings, activist groups, hikes and other outings in and around West Virginia. We welcome anyone who wants to explore, enjoy and protect the environment of our region, our State and our World.
