Meet other local members to ride, paddle, explore trails, talk gear and trade tips. We are here for anything fun outdoors and indoors. Some of our popular events include cycling, kayaking and skating but we are not limited to those. For example, hiking if there are leaders and enough interested members. Also, our events aren't limited to the city of Detroit, most of our events are in Southeast Michigan and there may be a few farther away. All levels of cyclists are welcome. We primarily do recreational rides on paved roads or trails. There will be group rides on streets with traffic. There will be group rides on the rails to trails that anyone can ride. Many are geared to a relaxed pace of 10-15 mph, distance varies. We may also plan some other rides such as mountain, fitness, and road biking, etc. if there is interest. All levels of paddlers are welcome. Many of us have kayaks but SUPs and canoes are also welcome and you can rent many places if you don't own. We primarily will be doing recreational paddling on local rivers with not much current, suitable for beginners or intermediate level. Some locations may be more advanced. There will also be other activities posted from time to time such as skating, social events or other activities that fit within the group's topics. The goal is to gather, make new friends and share activities that get you outdoors and/or keep you active. Your main profile picture should be a clear shot of your face so we can recognize you at events. Pictures of your child, pet, motorcycle, favorite cartoon character or even a group shot (which one are you?) aren't acceptable. If that's a problem you should contact the organizer to discuss it. \ **NEW** See here for our latest RSVP and attendance policies: [https://www.meetup.com/Activeindetroit/pages/31252444/Active_in_Detroit_group_policies/](https://www.meetup.com/Activeindetroit/pages/31252444/Active_in_Detroit_group_policies/) **NEW** Support your Meetup group by paying dues or making a donation: https://www.meetup.com/Activeindetroit/pages/17195192/Membership_dues/ \ All events are adult only unless otherwise specified in the event description. \ We are now on Facebook, which will make it easier for communication and event sharing.

My Social Club (0f Macomb County)

Sterling Heights, MI

My Social Club (0f Macomb County)
**ABOUT:** This Meetup group was created as a '**Go To**' place to find a buddy, or two; or to join a group activity you may be interested in. With each event you attend, a new connection is made and before you know it, you have a new Group of Friends to lean on. **FRIENDSHIPS:** As adults, we find it is much harder to make friends now than when we grew up in a kid filled neighborhood, or when we went to school. It becomes even more difficult as we age. People we may have been friends with forever have moved away, declined, or even passed away. Regardless of our ages, most everyone would prefer to do things with another person rather than do it alone. ***Creating new social connections is both beneficial and critical to our health and well being.*** **MY SOCIAL CLUB** is created as a safe place to meet like-minded people in a stress free, relaxed environment. Here we encourage each other to share skills and areas of expertise, learn something new, enjoy familiar activities, or do something that you've always wanted to do, but didn't have the courage to try it. **OUR GOAL** is to foster a supportive, inspiring environment and encourage each other to develop authentic and strong friendships. Here we thrive on a positive, open minded, and nonjudgmental environment. Please, **NO DRAMA,** gossip, or insensitive comments/criticism. While we honor everyone's individual personalities, we also want it to be a safe place for newbies to join, in a positive atmosphere. **PHOTOS**: Members are expected to upload a current photo of their face for ease of identification at events, and for safety reasons. This is a photo of YOU without other people, animals, or nature, (flowers, etc) in it. It is what would be considered a 'passport' photo. **DUES**: You may attend two events free, however, you will be expected to pay $12 in dues by the 3rd event to help maintain this Meet Up site. As an organizer, I pay $30 / month. You can help me out by paying annual dues of $12 on the anniversary of your membership to this group. If our group grows large enough our dues can be reduced. So, to make it easy on yourself, invite other people to join as well. I am not here to make money off of other people. But, I am also responsible for the Meetup company fees, and I cannot do it without assistance from our members. **VISITORS** are welcome, but after their second time as a plus one or guest they must decide to become a member to continue. **NO SHOWS**: If you have RSVP'd to an event you are expected to be there or communicate to the ***EVENT HOST*** that you will not be able to attend. LAST MINUTE illness, or other reasonable explanations as to why you are unable to make it, is understandable. NOT communicating and NOT SHOWING UP is rude to your host and other members, and unacceptable. *TWO NO SHOWS without communication will remove you from the group.* I am hopeful we can create a viable, enjoyable **SOCIAL CLUB** for all of us, and I welcome any comments, feedback, and activity suggestions. I look forward to meeting you, Denise Handlon
