Ultimate Frisbee Meetup of Fairfield County

Westport, CT

Ultimate Frisbee Meetup of Fairfield County

As featured in the Stamford Advocate! (scan: https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/8/8/2/1/high...)

We'd rather be out on the field playing Frisbee than being stuck in the gym; hence this Meetup. Ultimate is a fun, active sport that is easy to learn, and no special equipment is needed (except for a disc). This group is for players of all skill levels who want to play Ultimate Frisbee (or would like to learn the game). Basic qualifications: Can catch and throw the Frisbee!

Location: Usually Wakeman Park in Westport. Please let me know about any good fields around where we can play. VIMP: Please please fill in this poll when you join: (http://ultimatefrisbee.meetup.com/191/polls/125417/)

Fill in your profile, it will help us schedule the games more efficiently. I would rather have 20 active members in the group than 200 inactive! We are here to have fun, enjoy the weather and stay fit! Welcome!

RSVP guidelines: RSVPs are useful to help track attendance.  On days when attendance is low, sometimes it is necessary to cancel the game.  RSVPing helps prevent people from showing up to the fields when no game is happening.

The first rule of Frisbee is known as "The Spirit of the Game" and it refers to playing with high levels of sportsmanship and respect for other players.  This continues off the field, and it means as a group we welcome everyone, regardless of background or lifestyle.

New Haven Professional Lesbians & Bisexual Women of Color

New Haven, CT

New Haven Professional Lesbians & Bisexual Women of Color

A group that is dedicated to providing unique, sophisticated, and fun social events for the ever-evolving taste and interest of today's bi/lesbian woman of color.

Social activities range from art openings, brunches, plays, movies, poetry readings, yoga, dinner parties, book clubs, after work drinks, outdoor adventures, wine tastings, group travel to DC, Philly, New York, and Toronto, and team sports etc.

NOTE: All bi/lesbian women of color (Black, Latina, South Asian, Asian, and Native American), including all transgender women of color who identify as lesbians, bisexual, and queer, from the tri-state area (NY, NJ, CT) are welcome to join. Because this group serves as one of the few spaces for gay and bisexual women of color, particularly feminine lesbians and bisexual women of color, to socialize free of the forces of racism, sexism, and homophobia, we ask that you do not apply if you are not a woman of color who identifies as a lesbian or bisexual.

CRITERIA: As criteria for membership, all applicants must include a headshot that clearly includes their faces in their profile pictures. Profiles with avatars, non-human subjects, cartoons, or photos that in any way, shape, or form, obscure members' faces will be rejected. Profiles should include members' faces in order to ensure that their profiles are legitimate in order to ensure members' safety. Profiles that do not meet this criteria will be rejected. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to meeting you soon.

Sincerely,
Your meetup organizers
