Rockingham Outdoors and More...

Raymond, NH

Hi all! My intention is for this to be a very friendly group of people (at least nearing 40 if not over) who love to do local things outdoors and fun activities indoors. I've lived in this county for the better part of 20 years and am finding there's lots to EXPLORE right here! Hiking the White Mountains is great, but this group will provide many options closer to home for outdoor fun. We'll have occasional distant excursions as well though. During the colder months, we'll do lots of active indoor activities too! Bring your sense of adventure as this will be MY first time doing some of these walks/hikes! And since I have a deep intellectual side, I'd also like to plan some discussions on topics of interest like or maybe even have guest speakers... A note on the current state of meetup affairs as it compares to R.O.A.M.: Because I'm concerned about the impact on the environment of bringing a huge group of people on a nature trail and because I feel huge groups negatively impact the experience of others who are trying to enjoy the beauty and quiet of the outdoors, our groups are limited to 20-25 people. While Mountain National Forest Rules recommend all groups be limited to 10 people and and require the limitation in designated "wilderness" areas. We also will never charge annual dues or membership fees, claiming that it helps with the cost of running a meetup group (seriously...collecting a $15 annual fee from thousands of members is a money making venture, not a group of friends getting together). This groups operates in the original spirit of meetup. We do this because we love to and want to share it! Please join if Rockingham County destinations are convenient for you, you love friendly people and you love to have fun!

The East Hampstead Kayaking Meetup & Outdoor Enthusiasts

East Hampstead, NH

Please join us for some fun, friends and paddling! Meet other local paddlers and outdoors enthusiasts! This meet-up was started for kayakers to get connected with others who share the enjoyment of kayaking. We are mostly beginner and intermediate paddlers, but all levels and ages welcome! Our main passion is kayaking but because we all love the outdoors you will see non-kayak trips posted on our calendar!

Since we have a diverse group of organizers you can find the type of trip that fits your energy level for that day. Our most popular trips are the leisurely paddle exploring New Hampshire’s beautiful lakes and slow moving rivers, with plenty of wildlife viewing and socializing. Sorry no white water!

This is a meet-up so there is no membership fee! We encourage members to get involved by posting trip ideas and leaving feedback on trips they have taken with us! If you do not have a kayak yet you will need to rent one and transport it to the put in site. 98% of the places we put do not have rentals at them.

Hope to see you all on the water! J

Raymond Hiking Meetup Group

Raymond, NH

Welcome to the Raymond Hiking Meetup Group! If you have an adventurous spirit & love being in the great outdoors, then this is the group for you. We are a community of hiking, camping, kayaking, orienteering and fitness enthusiasts who enjoy exploring the natural beauty that Raymond & its surrounding areas have to offer. Whether you're a novice or experienced, come join us as we embark on adventures, forge new friendships, & create memories. Let's embrace the wonders of nature together! I used to be a member of the Raymond Area Outdoors Group. Over time it lost its leaders so it was purged from Meetup. I hope to restart the group & make it a fun, functional group, focused mostly on hiking. Most hikes will be in the Raymond area. Hikes will happen year round. Contact me if you want to assist as organizer, have suggestions or requests for a specific hike. Most meetup groups charge a small fee for each event. I do not want that pain so I paid all meetup fees for a year. Please don't try to pay me for any events. Instead of paying me, consider paying 25$, however, (any amount makes you a member) for a Bear Paw Regional Greenways membership. I'll try to have membership application forms at all hikes. Bear-Paw Regional Greenways PO Box 19, Deerfield, NH 03037 I also want to plug a local outdoor equipment company in Dover, NH called NEMO. They support many outdoor organizations and their equipment is as good or better than anyone's.

NH Hike & Brews Club (20s, 30s, & 40s)

Exeter, NH

This group is for anyone in their 20s, 30s, or 40s (must be 21+) who is interested in hiking, regardless of experience. The reason for the age restriction is to encourage younger adults to get out and enjoy the outdoors and make friends! For this reason, we mostly do easy to moderate difficulty hikes, but we occasionally do some more challenging hikes and camping trips for those interested and able. Typically (though not always), we will go out after each hike to a brewery or pub for food and beer. Often, members will bring beer up with them to enjoy and/or share at the top. All members are encouraged to post their own events here. Members who host events will have their dues waived. Events can be hikes, other outdoor excursions, visits to breweries, brewfests, parties, etc. If you are not sure if people would be interested in your idea, feel free to use the Discussion feature to ask! When you join, you will have a 6 month free trial before you are required to pay dues ($10 per year). I will send out an e-mail reminder before this happens. If you host at least one event for the group, you will never owe any dues. Our dues help pay for the annual Meetup organizer fees, and it is a way to encourage active memberships and event organizers (which means more fun events!). Any leftover money will be used for occasional meetup socials and/or parties. And beer! Rules for Membership: 1\. Treat everyone with respect\. 2\. Keep your RSVPs up\-to\-date if your plans change\, and please message your event host if you will be late\. We do not officially have a "no\-show" policy\, but we do keep track of no shows\, and if it becomes a problem\, you will be spoken to\. 3\. Be safe\! Make sure you are in good physical condition to handle the difficulty of the hike\, wear proper footwear\, bring water\, appropriate clothing for the weather\, and read event descriptions for other suggestions of equipment to bring\. You are responsible for your own safety\!

New England Over 50 Hiking Group

Manchester, NH

This group was founded for those of us aged 50-70+ who want easier hikes at a slower pace. We will try to hike at the fastest safe speed of the slowest hiker. Most hikes are in the White Mountain National Forest, and neighboring mountain ranges within 45 minutes of Interstate 93.

In addition to hiking, we have occasional events that are not strictly hiking. But they are consistent with getting together, usually outdoors for something fun that may involve varying amounts of physical effort. These have included biking, touring nature reserves or parks (no or minor hills), boat trips, and even seasonal parties.

We are not a "dating" site. Please do not contact other members who you have not met asking for personal information. Unwelcome advances will not be tolerated, NO means NO.

Our goal is to hike (etc.) all 4 seasons of the year, weather permitting, in the safety and camaraderie of the group. Hiking is a way to enjoy the process of staying fit, while enjoying the beauty of nature. This is a dog free hiking group.

Note: the former Pages section has been discontinued by MEETUP.COM. We will determine how to best make the previous info available to our members. Please be patient. Tom 2018-12-25.

Write Free Or Die

Derry, NH

To join Write Free or Die, submit here on Meetup (press the "Join" button). You'll be placed in a Pending status until you attend a meeting, after which your membership will be activated by the organizer.

Write Free Or Die is a writer’s critique and support group which does not restrict or judge the subject matter of the members’ writing. You choose what you want to write and the style you want to write it in, and we’ll help you make your choice as good as it can be. To be a part of this group, you must be willing to read and provide constructive feedback on any type of writing, even if it's "not your genre". Any genre or style is acceptable, from mainstream to experimental, tame to gruesome.

Some prior training and/or experience with writing is expected. The ideal member will be a not-yet-published aspiring author who has a strong desire to write novel-length work for publication. If you’re writing short stories, that’s also OK. The group will focus on fiction and nonfiction prose, so if you write poetry or screenplays, this is not the right group for you.

More detail about group format and structure is available in the Group Guidelines document, (https://www.meetup.com/Write-Free-Or-Die/about/) which is viewable by anyone.

Being a part of the group will require a time commitment. It’s expected that members will remain active, attending most meetings, providing feedback for others, and submitting their own work on a regular basis. Hopefully the work required will pay off in improvement of our writing skills and a greater feeling of community in what can sometimes be a lonely vocation.

Other online presences

The group owns and maintains a blog at Write Free or Die. This blog is open to the public for reading & commenting. Membership in Write Free or Die is required to post or edit content. Contact the Organizer or Co-Organizer for more information about the blog.
