What we’re about
San Diegans over 50 is all about singles and couples safely socializing around the Western part of San Diego County. Our meetup began with a small group of single women friends in Pacific Beach, then expanded to singles organized by a male Navy chief, who expanded membership to both men and women. Two more organizers expanded us to include a broader range of San Diego County territory, which spanned La Mesa on the East to Del Mar on the North and all around the City of San Diego. I am the 5th organizer and am expanding our membership to include socially active singles, widowed, couples, and married adults over 50 who need to get out and socialize.
When you apply for membership, please post a portrait so we can recognize you at our meetups. And for your name, please use your first name followed by an single letter; for example, if your name is Joe and your last name is Smith, then you could post your name as Joe S. Or, if you wish to remain mysterious, Joe X. We want to keep you safe.
The reason we collect membership dues is to pay Meetup.com to use this platform to announce meetups. The organizer (me) has to pay at least $150 every year to Meetup.com. I also buy door prizes, name tags, pens, and take the time to call venues, cut deals with the management, and evaluate parking for our members. To share in the expense of running the meetup, I ask each of you to pay $5.00 dues to remain a member. If you object to Meetup.com auto deducting $5 from your checking account, put $5.00 in an envelope, seal the flap, write your name on the outside of the envelope, and hand it to me.
Thank you all for joining San Diegans Over 50!
Your Organizer,
Ron May
