Mon Valley PA Bicycle & Outdoors Meetup

Monongahela, PA

Mon Valley PA Bicycle & Outdoors Meetup
\*Please note that, while we appreciate continued interest in the group, we are not accepting new members at this time. We will review new member join requests again in 2025.\* This group is for folks who want to get out and about and enjoy the fresh air and scenery on the beautiful trails and in the parks near the Mon Valley area, such as Mingo Creek County Park, Cedar Creek, the Laurel Highlands, and other trails in Pennsylvania and surrounding states. We enjoy biking the GAP and host a variety of short and long, always casual, rides along many of the stretches of the GAP. We also like to venture out to other trails for some day-long and overnight scenic trips.  In addition to bicycling, we take to hiking (at a *sauntering pace*), kayaking, camping, star-gazing and other activities, and try to work in some ice skating in the winter. We are always looking for fun, active events to round out the year, so if there's something you like to do and want company, please feel free to suggest it! We are a casual, genial group looking to enjoy the aesthetics of nature - our aim is not to build cardio or endurance, though if those happen, then we are better for it! We stop to snack, eat lunch, take pictures, marvel at natural beauty - and chat a lot along the way. We also host a few other activities that keep us connected, esp through winter months. Next, some business: It is important to our hosts and members to recognize and address members when at events. Please note that, for your request to be approved, your profile needs a name (anything gimmicky is a deterrent) and photo of you that makes you recognizable to our hosts - obscured or hidden faces, pictures that feature more than 1 person (we don't know which person is you), scenic shots (regardless of how great the photography is) etc. are not recommended. Your profile picture for this group can be different from your picture for other groups or your main Meetup profile. If you do not get approved, this is likely the reason. I will also remove inactive members and those who no longer have profile pictures. Also, please be respectful of hosts - • Change your RSVP if you can't attend, especially if the host is being charged any kind of fee. • Refrain from "hijacking" someone's posted event. • On overnight trips, be considerate of group members before inviting non-members to spend the night - please discuss with host in advance. We look forward to seeing you! Diane Marie

The Pittsburgh 30ish Social Group

Pittsburgh, PA

The Pittsburgh 30ish Social Group

Welcome to our social networking group for Pittsburgh socialites in or approaching their 30s. Our events offer a unique way to make new friends and meet like-minded folks in a laid-back atmosphere.

Please note our focus is on SOCIAL connections, not for professional networking or dating. If you're joining this group to advance a professional or romantic agenda, please seek membership in another group.

We schedule casual gatherings in different locations as they seem appropriate; these can include not only "happy hours" and house parties, but outdoor activities including hikes, kayaking, et cetera. 

This group is open to people of all professions, relationship statuses, races, sexual orientations, religious/philosophical beliefs, and ethnic backgrounds. All we ask is that you hold yourself to four standards of behavior: dignity, diligence, community, and responsibility.

While this group is open to people who are approaching their 30s (i.e. 25+), membership in this group (especially for vicenarians) is contingent on people acting with the maturity expected of people in their 30s (tricenarians). If you're a member who has just turned 40, don't worry; we won't exacerbate your potential mid-life crisis by kicking you out of the group. But we will encourage you to consider joining a more age-appropriate group.

You will be required to complete a brief questionnaire to introduce yourself this group (in keeping with our ethos of community) Your answers become part of your group profile and serve as your self-introduction to the group. Please answer them honestly.

Please feel free to contact myself, Kristen, or any of the assistant organizers if you have any questions.

The Pittsburgh Hiking Meetup Group

Pittsburgh, PA

The Pittsburgh Hiking Meetup Group

If you like to spend time outdoors, then this is the group for you! We offer you the opportunity to get outside through a variety of outdoor hiking events.

Pittsburgh Hiking Meetup is run by volunteer leaders who love the outdoors and want to get people outside. We are not paid guides. We do this because we are passionate about being outdoors. We are outdoor enthusiasts like yourself.

*Each volunteer determines what kind of hike they want to post.
* Each event has different expectations, directions and details. Please take time to read the details carefully and make sure the hike you are interested in is the right one for you.
* If you have questions about a specific hike, please email the specific hike leader directly.

When a person hosts a hike, that person represents the Pittsburgh Hiking Meetup Group, and must follow the rules of the park (and enforce them to the hikers she or he is leading). The group cannot risk being ejected from a park because of a few of its hikers. This is also to ensure the safety of the dogs.

If you host an event, you represent the group, and with this privilege comes the responsibility of following the law.


ALL DOGS on hikes with our group must be leashed at ALL TIMES.

If you have suggestions for hikes, or general questions about hiking, please use the Message Board.

We all look forward to meeting you on the trail!

One more very important thing....
When participating in Pittsburgh Hiking Meetup events, it is assumed that all participants are responsible for their own safety and of their dependents (such as children) at the event. The facilitator is simply providing an opportunity for everyone to enjoy the event together and is not assuming responsibility or liability for the safety of the participants.
