What we’re about
Who we are: We are a fun, inclusive group, rediscovering who we are as middle-aged adults (40ish and up), getting out of the house and challenging ourselves to make friends and try new activities. Regardless of your relationship status, you are welcome to come and find connection and friendship with others. We will plan a variety of social activities but would also like to focus on giving back to our community with volunteer activities. If you have ideas for activities or volunteer opportunities, please message the group leader or an event organizer.
Who should join: Middle-aged adults who do not have kids or whose kids are now (mostly) independent AND adults with or without a partner who are looking to extend their social circle and participate in fun, in-person activities with other adults. We expect everyone to treat all group members with respect and compassion, refraining from judgmental comments or discussions (no political, religious, philosophical, etc. debates—there are other local meetup groups for them).
Activity Disclaimer: Please note that this group is focused for those who are middle-aged adults. Please don't expect our activities to accommodate anyone under age 21.
Additional information: Usually events will be open to RSVP until the event time and for an unlimited number. Occasionally, we will limit number of or close RSVPs early based on event details (need for reservations, location limit, etc.) We ask that you RSVP for,anything that interests you — and even bring guests if you would like — but that you please change your RSVP status if you are unable to attend. Habitual RSVPers who no-show may be removed from the group at leadership discretion.

Many of us enjoy checking out the seasonal liquor releases and cocktail concoctions at Heritage so let’s not miss the fall seasonal offerings. Join us at Heritage for fun, good conversation, drinks if that’s your thing (it’s fine if it’s not), and maybe we will head over to the Tumwater Craft District for a bite to eat a little later in the afternoon.
Here is (or at least should be) a link to the fall cocktail menu:
