Welcome to our Christian Intergenerational Outdoor Activity Group! We are a community of believers who are passionate about connecting with God, nature, and each other through outdoor adventures and fellowship. Our group meets every week after Sunday service to embark on exhilarating hikes, explore the beauty of creation, and engage in meaningful conversations that deepen our relationship with Jesus Christ. This group is open to individuals of all ages who are seeking a closer relationship with like-minded believers. Whether you are young or young-at-heart, a seasoned hiker or a beginner, we invite you to join us as we venture into the great outdoors and grow together in faith. Our gatherings provide a safe and inclusive space for seekers as well. If you are curious about Jesus, exploring the Christian faith, or simply seeking spiritual truth, you are warmly welcome. We encourage open dialogue and offer a supportive environment where you can ask questions, share your journey, and discover the transformative love of Jesus Christ. Here's what you can expect from our Meetup group: Outdoor Adventures: Get ready to lace up your hiking boots, pack your water bottle, and join us on exciting trails and scenic routes. We'll explore the beauty of nature, bask in the wonders of creation, and find solace in the presence of God. Fellowship and Connection: Our group values building authentic relationships and fostering a sense of community. We believe that fellowship is an essential part of our Christian journey. Expect meaningful conversations, shared experiences, and opportunities to grow together in faith. Spiritual Reflection and Inspiration: As we hike through breathtaking landscapes, we'll also take time for spiritual reflection, prayer, and meditation. These moments will allow us to connect with God, draw closer to Him, and gain fresh insights into our faith. Learning and Sharing: We encourage the sharing of testimonies, Bible verses, and personal insights during our hikes. Each member brings a unique perspective, and we value the diverse experiences and wisdom that enrich our group. It's an opportunity to learn from one another and discover new dimensions of faith. Support and Encouragement: Our group is a place of support and encouragement. We walk alongside each other, offering a listening ear, prayer, and encouragement in times of joy or difficulty.

Would you like to be sitting in traffic on Rt. 28 at 5 pm? Or... what about having a great outdoor workout, fun in the sun, with like-minded folks just like you! Let's get some cardio, some laughs, decrease stress and maybe drop a few pounds along the way! As a bonus, the rush hour traffic slowly fades away, and you can jump in your car with your shorts and T-shirt on, and buzz home with no traffic! Howbout that? This meetup is for people wanting to exercise with a group, after work, outside, during the afternoon rush hour, and at no cost. This is not a business. The organizer is the same as you. The group is led initially by the organizer, but the thinking is we have many talented folks who may want to lead exercises or boot-camp style games. The idea is to have fun and feel that you are actually taking care of your body and mind, and helping others do the same. We meet in free public spaces, parks, etc. that are very close to work and on the way home. All ages and abilities are welcomed, as you will be accommodated to your comfort zone. Example: Someone has a shoulder problem and avoids exercises that focus on the shoulder, but they can do a different exercise instead. This is a new group, so please let us know of your interest as we begin planning activities for this Spring and Summer. We'll keep you posted!

This group is for those interested in monthly guided hikes, facilitated and led by Virginia Outdoors Foundation Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve staff, that focus on different aspects of a Natural Area Preserve and the native plants and animals it protects.
Each hike has a different trail and theme, and are dedicated to fostering the discovery of the natural ecosystems in the preserve. Topics range from education about those ecosystems and the management strategies in place to protect them, to naturalist hikes that are more for observation or hikes geared towards plant and animal identification or cultural history exploration.

Each hike is informal, with a larger focus on building the community of Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve and giving our hikers a broader view of the preserve and the work that goes in to managing these beautiful habitats. All skill levels and enthusiasts are welcome! Come out and explore the preserve with Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve staff!

This group is for anyone interested in volunteer trail maintenance and natural resource management on Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve. This group is operated by Virginia Outdoors Foundation Preserve staff with the goal to maximize our volunteer work and volunteer force to maintain the current trail network and increase the community of people coming out to the preserve and working alongside staff!

All skill levels are welcome and our activities have some range such as: trail clearing, constructing, general maintenance, invasive species removal, building and repairing water bars and various special projects occurring on the preserve! We meet once a month (weather and conditions permitting), and generally work for anywhere from two to four hours.

This volunteer group will not be restricted to trail work - we will be posting all volunteer opportunities and events that are occurring on the preserve! So if trail work isn't totally your thing, no worries - there will be other volunteer events posted here that might be more up your alley!
We're looking forward to protecting and preserving our native habitat and trail network with everyone!

Good Day! The purpose of this group is to socialize and get to know others in the community. I am open for suggestions for activities. I hope to meet you and get to know you.

This group is intended to bring a lot of interests together by linking people together. I have tried out many meetup groups in the past few years but have seen a growing gap for groups for middle aged people and see many more age specific niche groups. This group is not exclusive any age group, but the reason for this group is to give people who may be in a similar situation as I, a safe place to make new friends and bond.

I am a first generation immigrant from the West Indies, with no local family. I have no siblings and divorced with no children, so engaging in meaningful social opportunities doesn't present itself as often for me. I am sure I am not the only one.

Kintsugi is a Japanese art that involves putting broken pieces of pottery back together with epoxy and sealing the seams with gold. This can be interpreted in many ways for this group. The bonding of different individuals, the coming together of many activity types or perhaps starting over to change your lifestyle after a "life event".

I anticipate that I will work with other groups to provide some specific events (IE "cross posting"). While I engage in a lot of differing activities, I am not an expert or very knowledgeable in many. I am active in these other groups and know the organizers, so I wouldn't be subjecting anyone to a "blind trust" environment. I plan to have activities for kayaking, hiking, backpacking, racquetball, rollerblading or any activities that people may want to introduce for the weekend. All of these will be friendly to beginners, but many may require you have your own equipment. I also plan to balance that with weekday social events to give people an opportunity to get to know each other, which I believe is lacking in other groups and will enhance weekend activities. Happy hour, dinner, or just sessions to just talk about whatever in a good environment. This won't be my group, it is intended to be "our" group (a Kintsugi Life) and active participation at all levels is welcome.

Looking forward to meeting you and having some fun while getting some activities in!

This group is designed to bring Catholics and other Christians together for fun activities. In general this group is designed to reach out to people in their 30s, 40's and 50's+, since there are already groups for young adults and seniors. Please feel free to message me with any ideas for things you would like the group to do. I could also use a few more volunteers to host events.

Hi I’m making this group to connect with women who are shy and wanting to make deep connections with each other! Please join my group and we’ll do activities together like cafes, farmer markets, movie nights, reading, eating at restaurants, arts/crafts and many more!

Have a great time socializing and talking about our favorite science fiction books, movies, and shows, especially those related to Star Trek. You can also participate in the occasional interesting activity.

This group is unlike any I have ever joined. Come out and see what it's all about. You are sure to have fun here!
