Delco Ladies Social Group - 30s and 40s

Ridley Park, PA

Delco Ladies Social Group - 30s and 40s
This group is designed to help bring women together - to build new friendships, network, and go on social outings. Let’s share hobbies and create new ones! If you’re a woman around 30/40 years of age, looking for new friends, and want to find some events to get involved in, this is the group for you! Events will be primarily in the Delaware County area, but may occasionally be in surrounding areas as well. Activities will include happy hours, eating out, fitness, book clubs, game nights... anything is fair game - so feel free to suggest activities that you'd like to see! Looking forward to meeting you! ATTENDANCE POLICY - 48 HR RSVP One of the biggest stresses of any group is having an accurate RSVP count. In order to help mitigate this, I will be enacting a 48-hr mandatory response on events. Remember: we can’t make friends & have fun if we don’t show up! 1. If you can no longer make an event you RSVPed for, please update your RSVP no later than **48 hours prior to the event**. 2. Last minute cancellation: if something comes up less than 48 hours, please contact your host or post on the event message board that you can no longer attend. 3. If you have late cancellations to 2 events in a year, you will be removed from the group. 4. No contact/ no show: If you no-show to an event and do not contact the host or post a message, you will be removed from the group. I hope everyone understands the need for this, and ultimately that it gives people on the waitlist an opportunity to grab an open spot.

The Sporting Club at the Bellevue Pickleball

Philadelphia, PA

The Sporting Club at the Bellevue Pickleball
Welcome to The Sporting Club at the Bellevue's Pickleball group! This is a private group for current and former members. The main purpose of this group is to give Sporting Club members a way to organize play at the club.  With so many available times to play throughout the week sometimes you just never know if anyone is playing.  I get it, and I think it’s a good “problem” to have.  Hopefully this Meetup group can help alleviate that and allow you all to communicate and see who’s playing.  Eventually we can find times to just allow Beginner play. Maybe even Advanced times too!   Some rules/etiquette/thoughts: -Court 1 is closest to entrance of hallway.  Court 2 is center court.  Court 3 is furthest away closer to the Golf Pavilion. -Whichever team is closest to the hallway serves first. -Games are to 11.  Would love to give incentive for winner’s to be able to stay on and play 2, then sit.  All new 4 then comes in. -No one should be playing more than 2 games in a row when others are waiting -That being said, if you just played a long competitive match, and 8 or 10+ people are waiting to play, instead of playing your 2nd match in a row because you won, do you sit and bring on a whole new 4?  Your call to make, but I think the “waiting” members would love that.  Remember you’re going to also be “waiting” at some point. -Please try to incorporate other members to switch up matches if possible. -Try and respectfully coincide with basketball members.  We’re all members of this great club and trying to utilize the courts as best as we can.  -We can’t make everyone happy, but I’d like to try. -Always know there are things you can be working on in your game, even if you end up “playing down” with lower skilled members.  Lower skilled members appreciate being able to play with higher skilled members because it helps them get better. -I’d like to get 2 permanent Beginner/Intermediate clinics on the schedule.  Only 1hr.  Members are loving it and more clinics! -Do we have interest in an Intermediate+/Advanced clinic?  It would mostly be focused on drilling, strategy, and advanced techniques.  I would name it "Drills and Skills". It has a nice ring to it! Let me know. -Dinking and Banging can both be exhilarating! -HAVE FUN!     That’s all I have for now. I’m open to your feedback and suggestions.  I appreciate you all for being here and playing this great sport we all love!   Sincerely, Arnold (your resident “do you need a 4th”) Director of Athletics PPR Certified Pickleball Instructor

The Philly Climbing Club

Philadelphia, PA

The Philly Climbing Club

The Philly Climbing Meetup group is an online resource to help you get out and climb with compatible people.

It mostly hosts indoor climbing events at gyms out of convenience - since organizing large scale outdoor events can be a tough undertaking.

That said, many of us have founds friends to climb with in whatever our preferred venue and style is, up to long-distance mountaineering trips.

The forums are a good place to look for climbing partners or plan your own events, if you don't see the sort of thing what you want to do on the calendar.

If you like to take initiative, we welcome you to suggest an event, or post one for yourself. We're working to expand the capabilities of all members on the Meetup. If you try to post and event and don't have enough rights to do it, ask an organizer to be granted an "event organizer" role. 

The Meetup is always looking for more organizers to help keep things fresh here.

Use common sense and don't be a jerk, and you're welcome here!
