50+ Ladies of Palencia Neighborhood Group

Saint Augustine, FL

50+ Ladies of Palencia Neighborhood Group
***(This group is exclusive only to Palencia Neighborhood 50+ gals):*** Whether you're new to the area, retired, friends are scattered in other areas, empty nesters, children grown, no children, single/married/divorced/partnered/widowed, work with people you have nothing in common with, or just simply love making new friends, finding new friendships at this stage of our lives can oftentimes be difficult. The purpose of this group is to provide a *POSITIVE*, supportive, uplifting, ***nonpolitical,*** safe place to come together and enjoy each other's company, experience fun and joyful activities together, and have a chance to create new friendships. This group is about connecting, community, laughing, socializing, exploring, learning, sharing, staying active, and supporting each other. We had our first event in January 2023, and since then we have held an extensive number of activities such as neighborhood get-togethers, restaurant outings, movies, beach walks, Bunco events, Bingo, Ornament glass blowing, crafts, wine tastings, pickleball, various games, trivia nights, crafts, tours, sip and swaps, happy hours, learning opportunities, outdoor activities, boat tours, pool parties, charity events, and the list goes on and keeps growing! As we continue to establish roots, your organizers encourage members to continue to host events/activities and to bring your ideas and suggestions to the group for events. The success and sustainability of this group solely depends on member involvement. **THINGS TO NOTE:** **MEMBERSHIP**: \- \*\*\*Yearly annual membership fee is $20 \(Meetup takes a percentage of this\)\. Dues are paid through this "Meetup" app after a 14\-day trial period\. If you decide not to pay your dues\, you will automatically be omitted from the group\, but you can request to join again at any other time if you change your mind\. You will not be able to pay dues until your 14\-day trial is up\, and then Meetup will notify you it's time to pay your dues\. Any questions can be sent to Leah Maltz at lpmreporting@gmail\.com or Donna Villarose at donnavillarose@yahoo\.com\. \*\*\*Please post a profile photo showing your **face** for security reasons so host(s) and other members can recognize you from your picture. Remember, this is a private group. If you do not post a profile picture, you might eventually not be able to attend any social gatherings since we need a face picture for organizers/hosts/members to recognize each other at events. **GROUND RULES (MUST READ TO ANSWER SECURITY QUESTIONS):** 1. \- Kindness and respect at all times\. We are here to support/encourage/uplift each other positively in a pleasant environment and have a good time\, not to dispute divisive subjects\. Not everyone gets along or gels; however\, we can choose to be pleasant to each other and respectful despite our differences\. 2. \- Please leave ***politics*** outside of this group **AND** other ***divisive subjects***. 3. \- You are responsible to keep all RSVPs current\, including "Yes" & "Waitlist" RSVPs\. 4. \- Please be mindful of your RSVP\. Not showing up or canceling at the last minute prevents others who are waitlisted from attending and is disrespectful to staff at venues where RSVP/Reservations are relied upon\. 5. \- You are responsible to check for waitlist changes\. 6. \- Not paying dues after trial period = removal from group\. 7. \- You take full responsibility and liability for your safety to/from/during each event; if a Plus 1 is invited to an event\, they are included in this\. The host/organizer is not responsible for any liability\. 8. \- Please try to be prompt when showing up at the stated time of an event\. 9. \- Unless the event states you can bring another person\, please do not show up with an unreserved person and assume there will be a seat/space for this person\. THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS AN ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE FOR US ALL!

St Augustine Book Club

Saint Augustine, FL

For readers of all kinds. Whether you just rediscovered you passion for reading , have been an avid reader for forever, or just starting to dip your two into reading this is the club for you. We meet the last Thursday of the month, have dinner together and discuss the book of the month. We would love for you to join us! **The purpose** of this group is to bring like-minded locals together to make new friends and get to know each other. Using books to break the ice and generate discussions, gain new perspectives and commonalities is just the bonus to this group! As mentioned, the real purpose is to meet new people and establish friendships. **The genre** \- there's not really a genre for this club\, rather\, I'm basing the books on books that are highly recommended from other well established book clubs\. I am reading all of the books for the first time along with all of you:\) I'm expecting this to evolve as the group becomes a bit more established and we get to know one another\. **The cadence / Venue** \- meet monthly at local establishments within St\. Augustine\. **What to expect at the events** \- introductions\, icebreaker games\, open discussions on the book\. I'll have some discussion questions in my back pocket in case they're needed\, but I'd like the group to drive the discussion organically\. **Rules** \- Rather you're lonely\, new to the area or just want to increase your social circle\, THIS CLUB IS FOR YOU\. If you're looking to sell something or increase your business, find a date, bring drama, discuss politics or love committing to things you have no intentions of doing, THIS CLUB IS NOT FOR YOU. FAQs: How do I pay? Please bring $2 to the events. If you're able to pay online, feel free. Just let the host know you've already paid online. What is the cost for? Meetup groups cost $24/ month so the $2 is to help pay for the site. How will I find the group? There will be a St. Augustine Book Club sign. Also, most reservations will be under "St. Augustine Book Club" Will events always be inside? No, host will decide based on weather and availability. Please come prepared for both indoor and outdoor seating. I didn't like / finish the book, should I still go? Yes! We have lots of discussions on things other than the book. Join us!

Cruiser Lovers: The Ultimate Travelers' Group - USA

Palm Coast, FL

Cruiser Lovers: The Ultimate Travelers' Group - USA
Have you already enjoyed Royal Caribbean or other great Cruise Lines' friendly and personal service, variety of on-board activities/shore excursions, and amazing innovative ships and dream vacations to destinations all over the world?  Are you a person who expects a quality cruise and/or vacation experience? If you love to travel and have a thirst for unique experiences; if you want to live life to its fullest; if you want to expand your mind and your horizons and enjoy the excitement of adventure, then you will want to join this group. We will offer several cruise groups throughout the year for you to consider. Each will have group rates and amenities, low deposits, and a payment plan. In some cases the new mega-ships will be our destination; at other times we will explore exotic/ancient locations worldwide. In each case, we will find opportunities to give back to the communities we visit and get to know the culture/people of each locale. Cruising is one of the most economical ways to travel and see several destinations in one trip. Our primary focus will be cruising aboard the RCCL and her sister cruise lines (Celebrity and Azamara). However, at times we may explore other quality cruise offerings or land-based trips. This group was initiated in the DC Metro area and is based out of Florida.  Cruisers primarily from the mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Southeast, and Los Angeles typically participate but we have travelers from all over the USA and abroad.  We plan several cruise offerings throughout the year, meet for cruise night events, and visit local cultural/international venues in our surrounding areas for a preview of cultural experiences we might expect on our trips.  Most of the planning will be initiated online through member input about their desired vacation. Members who wish to initiate/host a trip on their own will pay a fee of $25.00, for each trip post, to help offset the organizer's costs and for the privilege of accessing this group. As the Meetup Organizer, I am obligated to pay Meetup.com a monthly fee to host this group. Members who are signed up with this group are encouraged to donate $1.00 **annually** to offset the monthly fee charged to me by Meetup.com. So if you love to cruise and have been looking for a travel group that will provide you with information on the best cruise offerings and the opportunity to travel with a diverse group of people who also enjoy cruising and traveling to remarkable destinations all over the world... what are you waiting for, get on board!
