What we’re about
Welcome to the "Gaston Go-Getters!" We are entering our second year of exploring Gaston County and surrounding areas. We are a welcoming group and accept members no matter their age or orientation. You are never too old to become a "Go-Getter!"
There are a couple of very simple requirements...and yes, they ARE requirements.
1. You must post a recognizable photo of yourself on your profile before you attend your first event with us. Not your children, not your pets, not a photo of your tattoos! I need to recognize you when you walk in the door.
2. I'm looking for an active group of folks who want to attend outings and support local businesses. Going forward, you will need to attend at least ONE event every six months.
3. If you RSVP, show up! If you must cancel, change your RSVP no later than 24 hours before the event. Three no-shows (or last minute changes) and you will be removed from the group. Emergencies happen and will be taken into consideration.
You are not required, but you are encouraged, to purchase food or drink from establishments that we visit. Thank you for wanting to support "local!"
And then...there is the optional "opportunity" to financially support the "Go-Getters." Moving forward, new members will receive a link to the Venmo account of the organizer. If you are so inclined, please make a donation to help offset the fees associated with Meetup.
If you have an idea for a meetup, something fun that you want to explore with this group, I want to hear about it. Here's to a great year of the "Gaston Go-Getters" in 2025!
