What we’re about
The purpose of this group is to bring together Black people over 50 who enjoy socializing, exploring new places and experiences. Us 50+ folks still like to get out there and enjoy life too! Events will be held locally within the Baltimore/Washington area. This group is for you if you have the desire to explore and do not want to do it alone.
Below are the group rules:
1) There is a zero No-Show policy. Please RSVP to events when you are sure you can participate, and if you must cancel, please do so in a timely manner and/or connect with the event host in a timely manner. Individuals who RSVP and do not attend or communicate with the event host, are subject to immediate removal from the group.
2) A current photo of members is required (and please do not add a photo from childhood or 20 to 30 years ago). This way, the group Organizer and members can put a face to a name and the group feels a bit more personal. Exceptions will be made (e.g., photo of flowers, paintings) for those that are already well known to the group Organizer personally.
3) Inactive members who do not participate in events or log onto the group website are subject to removal after three months of inactivity.

Michael Jackson was one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Centered around the making of his 1992 Dangerous World Tour, and created by Tony Award-winning director/choreographer Christopher Wheeldon and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Lynn Nottage, MJ goes beyond the singular moves and signature sound of the star, offering a rare look at the creative mind and collaborative spirit that catapulted Jackson into legendary status.
