What we’re about
!!!!I'm presently having website problems with trying to get gals who apply to this group, approved. The website just isn't working. Please bear with me till I ever get an answer back from meetup organization in response to my email about the problems I'm having. Thanks
This is a group only for "seasoned" women, 55 and OVER, who wish to expand their social networks, make & deepen friendships, become inspired - learn something new & just have fun! Originally designed to target women who live in Johnson County - this group found we could not be contained within Johnson County boundaries! (You must post a picture with your application as we are a private group and it's part of our security check. It also shows us who we are looking for at events.) There are yearly dues due in June to help cover the costs of the website and other expenses. (These dues are somewhat pro-rated for the first year)
So many things can be shared with girlfriends: a movie, playing cards, wine tasting, cooking, games, shopping, or meeting for Happy Hour!
We have re-occurring monthly meetups to consider, such as JCS Mixer dinner, Epicurean Adventures (which is a meal at a nearby NON-CHAIN restaurant), a TGIF night (brand new 2022) Mexican Dominoes, Craft Night, Monthly Day Trips, and a monthly Breakfast. You will find these groups listed on the meetup home page or calendar. We add other unique offerings throughout the month as something of interest comes up.
We usually have about 11 events a month when the weather plays fair with us. But with all that's been going on the last couple of years, we have a few things that aren't up and running right now.
All of our meetups are space-limited because they are hosted in women's homes or we make reservations. For this reason, we require that you make a COMMITMENT to the event if you RSVP and take one of the few slots available. If you have r.s.v.p.ed and see that you will not be able to attend, we ask that you CANCEL your r.s.v.p. so that someone from the waitlist can be notified ASPAP that a slot has opened up for them.
After three r.s.v.p. cancellations within 48 hours of events per year, a member is removed from this group based on the discretion of the organizer, as this makes our reservations wrong or tells people on the waitlist that they can go, but way too late for them to know it. This is a very important rule for this group!!!
This is definitely NOT a political or religious group, and those issues need to be addressed in other groups, NOT THIS ONE!!
The average age of our members is around 65-70. We aren't as big of a group as others so we can really get to know each other. Please remember we are a social group for ladies, 55and over, that are just out to have fun!!
