What we’re about
Welcome! Are you interested in meeting new people? Do you want to de-stress with a fun activity and conversation? We firmly believe in “random fun” and “shenanigans.” This group is open to all who would like to participate in activities that include happy hours, games, dining out, music/art/theater events, book club, documentary club, outdoor events, volunteering, coffee/tea/dessert, and everything fun in between!

See all- Brunch at OcotilloOcotillo, Portland, ME
Join us for brunch at Ocotillo. I haven't been yet but I've heard good things! I've made a reservation for 6 at 11:15 a.m.; please note, Ocotillo has limited seating which means no-shows directly affect the restaurant and the servers.
I'm unsure if they will split the bill so please plan to bring cash or be able to venmo/cash app the cost of your bill (+ 20% tip). Everyone is responsible for the cost of their own food/drink.
Here's their link and menu: https://www.ocotillo.me/
Not open - 2025 Read Harder Challenge - Monthly Meet UpBelleflower Brewing Company, Portland , ME
Let's wrap up the first month of the Book Riot's 2025 Read Harder Challenge. The Read Harder Challenge is a list of 24 different (usually genre based) challenges. Each month, I'll pick two challenges and ask attendees completed at least ONE of the challenges prior to the event. Some attendees may complete both (which is great!) but I know that's not realistic for everyone.
For January, the two challenges to choose from are:
a) Reread a childhood favorite book
b) Read a queer mysteryIf you really want a challenge, Book Riot adds a bonus task: complete all tasks with LGBTQ+ and/or BIPOC books.
For more information about the challenge, a downloadable tracking sheet, suggestions and general fun, please check out their website at: https://bookriot.com/read-harder-2025/
Please note: Belleflower Brewery is indeed a brewery. There is usually a food truck available (can't promise that every time) and they do sell non-alcoholic based beverages. Please check out their website for more info: https://www.belleflowerbeer.com/
Everyone is responsible for their own person and purchase of food/drink.
