Outdoor activities groups near North Kingstown, RI
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.

Island Vegans
Newport, RI
NEW: WE HAVE A FACEBOOK GROUP AT: https://www.facebook.com/groups/119354365479390/ You can join us here on Meetup as well, but in time we may transition to Facebook exclusively.
---------
This meetup group is for vegans who would like to meetup and hangout with other vegans on and near Aquidneck Island (Newport, Portsmouth, Middletown, Narraganset, Fall River, etc.)
This meetup group is for those who practice kindness and non-violence toward ALL animals. As vegans we choose not to commission the exploitation of animals when it comes to our choices for food, clothing and entertainment.
You are encouraged to join if you are not yet vegan but are seriously interested in becoming vegan. Whether you're the sort that takes the immediate plunge and never looks back, or finds yourself easing into it - you will find the group friendly and eager to support you and provide resources!
Island Vegans will have meetups including dining, nightlife, outdoor activities, providing the opportunity to take a timeout from a world of systemic animal use and find an oasis where you can socialize exclusively with others who view our world through the same lens you do!
