Providence Outdoor Adventures

Providence, RI

We are Providence's number one group for hiking, skiing, biking, snowboarding, and more. We have no cliquey events where only the regulars always get chosen, and every event starts with carpool so nobody is left behind. We are the most inclusive group in the area for hiking, skiing, biking, snowboarding, and other outdoor adventures.

Our group is about the democratization of the outdoors, so you can be the adventure spark (https://www.ridj-it.com/adventurespark)without having to go through layers of the usual Meetup hierarchy.

Do you want to get out and go skiing but don’t have a ride? We’ve got your back. Have you been dreaming about surfing but can’t make it out to California? We know a secret spot to paddle out, and its way closer than you think. Ridj-it has helped bring hundreds of people from the creature comforts of the city to adventures of a lifetime all around New England. Pick one of our trips or design your own; we’ll sort out the details. Your ride is outside. What are you waiting for?

Ridj-it has taken over 3,000 cars off the road, and through connecting those without cars with those who have one, we've helped adventurers host over 500+ events in just a year. Is there a mountain you've always wanted to hike?

Drivers and riders can post adventures from Providence. Our events include people from Meetup, Facebook, Airbnb, and others, so we're more than your typical Meetup group.

Why do we carpool? (https://www.ridj-it.com/single-post/2018/02/18/Why-Carpool)We found most other outdoor Meetups were leaving younger residents, people of color, and immigrants behind. By linking our trips to carpool, we make sure everyone has to work together as a team in order to go on events. Many of our hosts don't have cars, and we're proud to have a space where outdoor enthusiasts can slowly democratize access to New England's beautiful mountains, rivers, and beaches.

Friends of Myles Standish State Forest Meetup Group

Carver, MA

Founded in 2007, the Friends of Myles Standish State Forest have been holding volunteer-led group hikes and birding events at various locations in and around the vast Myles Standish State Forest in Plymouth and Carver, Massachusetts. Myles Standish SF is the size of the island of Manhattan, covering more than 12,400 acres (or 25 square miles) with **many dozens of miles of hiking and bicycle trails** allowing you to explore its 16 pristine ponds, four major campground areas, two boy scout camps and wildlife management areas. Few people have seen every corner of it. ![](https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/8/e/b/600_454475051.jpeg) The park is split between sections of Plymouth and Carver. Minutes from Route 3 or Route 495, you have probably passed within a few miles recently. Why not join us to give it a try? The Friends have been around for 15 years. We celebrated the 100th anniversary of the park's founding in 2016 and our 15th annual Family Fishing Derby in 2022. ![](https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/1/3/d/c/600_454445084.jpeg) For most of the year, we have a regular group that goes out hiking on weekday mornings. (Right now the group goes out on Thursday.) We also have a group that goes out with their dogs on many Sundays. Saturday and Sunday hikes are offered whenever we have leaders available. Bird watching and other bird support activities are scheduled when the birds allow. We are approaching our 2000th Meetup since our group started using Meetup in 2009. It just helps people get together and allows a little flexibility in case the weather decides not to cooperate. Clearly, a lot of people are having fun and we hope you will join us soon. ![](https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/0/2/a/event_210761002.jpeg) Members of the Friends are also currently working on various stewardship projects such as: **Trail Maintenance**\- Together with the state\, we have helped to maintain miles of trails in the forest\. Sometimes we go out with loppers\. Other times\, we have rented equipment for the state workers to use in clearing and leveling some of the trails\. $We aren't allowed to use power equipment ourselves in the forest\.$ In 2018\, we repaired two of the boardwalks around the East Head Reservoir\. It took hundreds of hours of volunteer time and we spent over $3500 on the repairs\. We are proud of what we accomplished\. **Native Bird Support**\- A group of volunteers cleans and monitors about 40 bluebird boxes at various locations throughout the forest\. These boxes are visited weekly during the nesting season and all activity is tracked and reported\. Watch Meetup for notices about when training and setup activities are scheduled\. $Typically in late March/ early April\.$ **Native Plant Support-** The Friends have helped to maintain native plant gardens at headquarters and at other visible locations in the forest. **Annual Fishing Derby-** For 15 years, the Friends have held a Family Fishing Event on the last Saturday of September. Together with MassWildlife and the DCR, we provide fishing tackle, bait, instruction and prizes to hundreds of area families. Visit the [Friends of Myles Standish web page](http://www.friendsmssf.com/) to find out more about these activities. While there, please consider a membership, which is only $10, to support them. (This is different than signing up on Meetup. Registering on the Meetup is free. Membership in the Friends is completely optional.) This Meetup Group is sponsored by the Friends of Myles Standish State Forest (FMSSF). a volunteer group charity organization founded in 2007. We are private individuals who want to bring interesting and fun hikes, bird-watching programs and other events for all ages to Myles Standish State Forest, the largest state forest in eastern Massachusetts-- a park as big as many of the towns that surround it. ![](https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/a/a/c/event_112603692.jpeg) ![](https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/4/1/a/2/event_108196802.jpeg) This group is not sponsored by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) or the State of Massachusetts. We often work closely with the DCR on clearing trails and on our annual fishing derby and many other projects but if you have an issue with the park, please address it to the state. (You can copy us. We like to know about such things and we do what we can to help focus the attention of the State on what we see as the bigger issues with the park.) All ages are welcome on our hikes as long as parents/guardians are with any younger hikers. Friendly leashed dogs are welcome on most hikes. If you love hiking or birding you will discover that MSSF has some great places to explore. The pine barrens of Myles Standish are unique and beautiful. They are worth a visit, any day of the week, 365 days a year. What are you waiting for? Again, please consider joining our Friends group. Basic membership is only $10 per year. Visit the [Friends of Myles Standish web page](http://www.friendsmssf.com/) to find out more about us.

Welcome journeyers and lightworkers!

We offer many wonderful opportunities to get connected with yourself, your creativity, and the natural world in a community of like-minded souls. This group is for you if you are interested in: \ Learning to meditate \ Becoming more aware of your intuition and inner world \ Bringing your current meditation practice to a deeper level \ Diving deep, healing old traumas, & being fully embodied in a safe and loving space \ Expressing the joy that is You in a loving, supportive community \ Sacred Women's Circles and Sisterhood \ Experiencing the healing power of Sound \ Exploring your Creativity through different art mediums \ Journaling as a transformative experience \ Connecting to the natural world through meditation and QiGong \ The power of Sound healing combined with Yoga and other modalities \ ...and other paths to deepening our joy in the human experience If any of these resonate with you, or you feel a pull or curiosity, we'd love to have you join us! The Tree of Light, Roots of Peace meetup group was created by Lydia Erickson as a way to share her sound healing, creative arts, and meditation classes in the Boston South Shore area, and to create a beautiful community. You can read more about her journey here and how Tree of Light, Roots of Peace was born: songofthetrees.com "Tree of Light" honors our physical and spiritual connection with the natural world, and "Roots of Peace" illustrates what happens to a world when the people honor their innate light and consciousness and reclaim their birthright of wholeness and connection to the Earth. The intention beneath healing the self is two-fold, for a release of trauma and a deepening of self-love is also healing to the Earth and life as a whole. To heal our Earth we must heal ourselves, which means staying on the path of growth, following our intuition, and awakening our creative abilities. Wishing You a Blessed Day!

Boston South Shore Whole Food Plant Based Meetup Group

Randolph, MA

I’d love to meet others who eat Whole Foods Plant Based meals. Let’s start with outdoor gatherings - maybe pot luck picnics, while the weather is nice. I changed the name of this group because my focus is on the health aspects of eating WFPB and, at this time, not on the numerous ethical concerns.
