What we’re about
This Meetup group celebrates conversation, culture, connecting with others and having fun. In 2024 I am hosting more events at restaurants and museums - in addition to tea and coffee houses.
The expectation is for all members to participate at least periodically. Many Meetup groups have thousands of members who never attend even one time. This group is different.
A separate issue is when people register for an event but then fail to show up - or when they drop out on the day of. To remedy this, as of July 1, 2022, I have instituted a new policy where "no shows" and cancellations within 24 hours of an event may lead to removal from the group (with the ability to re-join the group in 4 months).
In addition several events may have a waiting list. Please do not shy away from joining a waiting list even if it seems sizable. The waiting list does NOT function on a first-come-first-served basis. As spaces open up I may pull from the waiting list "out of order" in an effort to create a better balance for a specific event.
Finally if you have any specific event suggestions please send them my way in Meetup Messenger.
