A group of fun, easy-going, friendly people who love video games (or dice/board games) as much as they like being active...whether it's biking, swimming, running, soccer, basketball, dance, yoga, kickboxing, rugby, weight-lifting...WHATEVER :) But staying active in addition to our couch potato time! We might do either activity (or both if we get into a rigorous Wii tennis match!) and just enjoy being around people with common interests.
Small Print:
1) Membership Dues:
Having a meetup group is an annual cost of $144; to maintain this we charge a yearly $3 membership fee. This will also be used to cover costs incurred by the organizer or hosts if members do not show up (see new policy below concerning "no shows") and to assist in funding meetup events.
You can pay this online. It is to be paid before you rsvp "yes" for your first meetup and again the following year.
2) No Show Policy:
This is intended to encourage accurate RSVPs. After 3 "no shows" (RSVPing "yes" to an event and then not showing up) the member may be removed from group. This is being done for several reasons:
- Often times event reservations are paid in advance, leaving the host to unfairly pay for no shows.
- Frequently, there are large waiting lists of people who would really like to attend the event. By not coming, an individual deprives someone else the chance to partake.
I understand things come up last minute and most of our members tend to be very busy people so it's easy to forget things! Two no shows will be allowed...but the third strike, you're out!
3) Coming Uninvited:
Additionally, if you are not on the "going" list or do not have special permission from the organizer or host to attend a meetup, please do not show up. We have a specific number of people that we plan on for each meetup. It's also not fair to those members that have been patiently waiting on the waiting list if others are able to come to the meetup who weren't even on the list. Members may be removed who show up without permission or without being on the "going" list.
