🌱 **Join Our Vegan & Vegetarian Social Club!** 🌱 There used to be some vegan groups on here but they became inactive over time. Here's a new one that promises to be active in organizing events. I hope members are active in joining and following through. Anyways: Looking for a fun, inclusive community to connect with like-minded individuals? Our Vegan & Vegetarian Social Club is the perfect place! We focus on socializing, enjoying diverse activities, and discussing a variety of topics, all while sharing our passion for a plant-based lifestyle. Whether you're a vegan or vegetarian with some vegan preferences, come join us for: 🍲 Potluck dinners 📚 Book club meetings 🎥 Movie nights 🍳 Cooking classes 🚴 Outdoor activities 🎲 Game nights 🍴 Restaurant outings We welcome everyone who shares our love for delicious plant-based food and great company. Let's build friendships and have fun together! Disclaimer: While the events will be vegan/vegetarian, the group will not be an activism first type group. Feel free to discuss important issues but please no uncivil debates or gatekeeping or trying to outdo one another. Please do not actively debate politics. Please be people that are vegetarian/vegan with personalities and unique stories to share. Please do not "only be" vegetarians/vegans. Let's socialize and have some fun. Please also do not debate every event activity we choose. Every business does something wrong. Every product has ancillary impacts on something. Some are worse than others. Some ought to be better. We are imperfect people and we are looking to be vegetarian/vegan and have fun. Let's unite in that rather than looking for division. If something does not fit your moral compass, please abstain and I'm sure the next event will be right for you. You're always welcome to suggest activities as well.

In a city that is heavily based around a social culture of drinking, I'm creating this group for all those who want to meet others and participate in social outings and activities without being in an alternate state of mind. I feel there is a good community of non drinkers here that are hard to find and hopefully this group will make that easier. This group will be geared toward those in their 20s - 40s. We will do things such as park outings, casual sports and yes even night life outings. If the group name sounds familiar, I created this group about 5 years ago but between a brother and a friend who passed away, going through paramedic school, I didn't have the time or energy to put time into the group. I'd like to welcome everyone back and hopefully we get a good following and this will be our year! Hope to see you at a meet!

Hello Cincinnati women! Eastside Ladies Social Group is a group for women of all ages looking to get out of the house, get a healthy dose of social interaction, and make new friends. Events will predominantly take place on the eastside with some events in central Cincy, and Northern Kentucky. You are welcome whether you’ve lived in Cincinnati all your life or are a recent transplant. Activities will include visiting local happy hours, wine tastings, restaurants, museums, art shows, plays, festivals, nature walks, and more! Please reach out if there is a particular activity or event you are interested in. The goal of the group is for women to socialize in a welcoming and safe environment. Let's have some fun ladies!

In the technological age, women are shown to be far more active on social media sites, creating more of a detachment from one another in today's world.Given that the overwhelming majority of "word of mouth" that takes place online, it’s important to recognize that more harm is coming from it than for the greater good on many interpersonal aspects. Therefor, as women who are the creators of "getting it done", we must look past these social media constraints to understand what’s happening in our lives in terms of the bigger picture in having REAL and LIVE conversations. As women, the value of "word of mouth" and it's quality is a direct creative result of **how** they engage in it and the impact it has on a woman's health and well being. Furthermore, women are more persuasive and supportive to each other concerning their contribution/s to one another, the supportive words used in conversation and for life's recommendation and opinions. This has huge implications on the modern day woman. Join us for "the gift of gab" for topics only a woman understands.

We try to mix up our events - dining out with brunch, wine tastings, movies, dinner, cookouts, singo, trivia, and other local fun adventures and social events.

Those who join should be committed to open-minded and positive communication within a diverse and inclusive group of females! NO hate, NO-isms, NO Debbie Downers, and NO 'phobias please. We are excited to have as many ladies as possible attend each event! Please understand that v*enues are often reserved for our group and their staffing can be determined based upon our expected attendance. Reduced numbers are a direct reflection on our group, and the organizers, and may cause venues to not accept future reservations.* Therefore, we do have some guidelines on attendance to ensure the integrity of our events. We ask that you: * Only RSVP to events that you know you definitely will attend. Please do **NOT** use your RSVP as a placeholder. * If you RSVP to an event and are unable to attend (because hey, life happens), please extend the courtesy of letting the organizer know, or change your RSVP to "No" as soon as you know you cannot attend. Two or more last minute cancellations (less than 24 hours prior to an event) *may* result in removal from the group. * **PLEASE DO NOT "NO SHOW."**  Attendance for each event is tracked and, unfortunately, if you "No Show" two times you will be removed from the group (and we really don't want to do that!). * Additionally, we want members who are engaged in our group - so be sure to visit often, and attend events! We delete anyone has not visited our group for more than a year. We often communicate through the MeetUp email system with additional details about our group or an event you're scheduled to attend, so please ensure your MeetUp profile/account is set up to receive emails. Do you have something fun you'd like to do but need a friend (or ten) to do it with? We are happy to chat with those interested in being a co-organizer/event host for our group.

Also reach out if you have a suggestion for something fun you'd like to see the group do!
