What we’re about
We are a group of AARP members and friends who meet for coffee, lunch, dinner, walking, exploring, and more to enjoy socializing and learning with each other. This group aims to bring people together to get involved in the community and make new friends. We'd like to provide events each week, and encourage members to reach out and have impromptu get togethers. Let us know if you'd like to be an organizer.
