We're chilled, don't take things too seriously, and like to have fun!
We have an age restriction. I've previously ran all-age groups and found that some older people felt excluded at events. For an all-age community, check out GFM.
We are intentionally limiting how big this group becomes, recognising that other groups fulfil this function.

This group is for anyone aged 18-45 in the Guildford area (and nearby - I'm in Godalming myself!) that likes the sound of these vibes and would like to be part of the fun.

We'll develop friendships, have adventures, and do social good. Basically, pubs, board games, laser quest, air hop... whatever we happen to come up with :)

What are your rules?! 📄

As users on the Meetup platform, we seek to abide by the Meetup Groups and Events Policies:

https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002897712-Meetup-groups-and-events-policies ✅

This document is pretty long, so in the words of immortal philosophers Bill and Ted: 'Be excellent unto each other'. 🤘

One additional rule. Please don't direct message (DM) anyone that you don't know. This includes this app, WhatsApp and popular communication platforms such as MySpace, AOL, MSN, and Bebo. 📥

You are also forbidden from sending unsolicited carrier pigeons and/or letters in bottles. 🕊️🍼

Help! I'm outside the age bracket and/or want a bigger group!

We are non-competitive 😊

We take a non-competitive stance towards other Meetup groups and encourage all members to take part in other groups and actively encourage their growth. Let's all support each other ✌️☮️

How do you pay for this?! Doesn't running a Meetup cost money?!

There is no charge for this group. However, if you appreciate it and would like to contribute towards it's continuation, we encourage you to donate £1 here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/GuildfordMeetup

## Youth Centre Take-Over Night - Fundraiser

It's been a while, but Meetup nights at Broadwater Youth Centre are back!

Date: Saturday, November 23rd Time: 7:00 PM - 10:30 PM Location: Broadwater Youth Centre Entry Fee: £5 (all proceeds to Godalming Youth Service)

The theme for this one is gaming - arcade, board, video gaming!

Dust off your Pac-Man t-shirt for a night of mayhem! We'll have something for everyone, with:

Classic arcade machines: We have three arcade machines, and many retro game systems to play. Enjoy your favourites, discover retro gems and see if you can beat Tom at Street Fighter 2!
Modern gaming setups: Battle it out on PS5 (Fifa), Xbox (Forza with steering wheel), or Switch (with Mario Kart/Smash Bros)!
Tabletop games: Gather your crew for board games, with a whole library of board games available.
Indoor sports - enjoy air hockey, pool, and more!
VR experiences: Dive into another world with virtual reality!
Sumo Suits: Channel your inner wrestler for some hilarious battles!

Why the Theme?

All proceeds will support the youth centre, particularly a project the young people are involved in to refurbishing arcade machines (one of which will be playable on the night!)

So why this theme? Well, firstly, it's fun! Secondly, the arcade machine project is really positive, and we want to make it even better. Billiam is overseeing it, and it's good to support the work of other Meetup members.

Important Note: This event is exclusive to Meetup.com members who RSVP to this event. If you don't RSVP then you may not be allowed entry.
