What we’re about
Need more friends? Want to go do fun things? Wishing for some variety in your life?
COME MEET YOUR NEW BEST FRIENDS!
BaltiMORE FRIENDS is all about trying something new, meeting people with common interests, and building solid relationships. We host large events to get people mingling, then follow with small events to help everyone get to know one another.
What kinds of stuff do you do?
Everything. If it's more fun to do in a group, then we're into it. We're talking axe throwing, geocaching, cooking classes, fishing, improv comedy, farmer's markets, museums, murder mysteries, road trips, miniature golf, soapmaking, etc. The list is endless!
Can I make a suggestion or host an event myself?
Hell, yeah! We love when people get involved! Contact an Organizer to pitch your idea and let us know whether you want to run the event yourself or have one of us do it.
What if I don't know anyone or this is my first Meetup?
Awesome! Don't stress--everyone was new once, and we all became friends because we consistently spent time together. If you're still hesitant, sign up for one of the smaller events and contact the Organizer in advance so you have one familiar face/voice when you get there.
What's this about dues?
Meetup is notorious for people flaking, so we set a nominal fee after 6 months so people who sign up and disappear will automatically get removed from the group. That means our members are actual people, not just defunct profiles. Plus, it helps us pay for Meetup! C'mon--$10 isn't going to break the bank, and we guarantee you'll have ten bucks' worth of fun! We'll even waive it if you host an event, so pick something interesting and get it on the calendar!

See all- Sip & Snack (Dry Cocktail Party)Reveille Grounds, Baltimore, MD
Come enjoy an evening of conversation and connection! Sip & Snack is the perfect opportunity to get to know each other better in a relaxed atmosphere. Dress is casual. We'll be serving non-alcoholic beverages and light refreshments, so you don't need to bring anything but your witty banter!
LeeAnn and Adam will be hosting at Reveille Grounds, and we'll be joined by active and retired military veterans and their spouses. This is our opportunity to go beyond thanking people for their service. We can actually HELP veterans make and nurture strong community connections. We are the network that can provide employment opportunities, business referrals, a social safety net, and more. If you'd like to find out more about this amazing non-profit, click here.
