This group is for those 30ish-50ish who have found themselves to be allergic to the corporate world and have done everything they can to stay out from under the flood of fluorescent lighting, long carpeted hallways and cubicles. You should join it if you are 30ish-50ish (we are flexible here, not ageist), live in Portland and are a writer, designer, crafter, builder, artist, musician, clown or other 'special' sort of individual and spend a large portion of your time in the creative zone. The pur …

I started this meetup group when I was having a very hard time finding basic beginning dance classes for adults in Portland. Many say they are for beginners, but are geared toward intermediates. This group is here so real adult beginners who have never danced before in their lives can meet one another, take classes together, and offer moral support and encouragement when everyone else in the classes they take is freakishly gazelle-like and graceful. Of course, we welcome patient, encouraging and …

Today I became the organizer for this group. I am pretty new to guitar, having started playing in September, 2010. That just means I have so much more to learn. I'd also like to start playing with/around other people, and hear other people play as well. I play acoustic guitar. I never attended a meetup with this group, so you probably don't know me unless you have seen me in another one. I live in Multnomah VIllage, and my house is large enough that we can gather here from time to time. I'd gues …

This is a new group for Portland moms with toddlers who want to meet other moms for friendship and support while the little ones have playtime. We recently moved to Portland from San Francisco and live in outer NE Portland. I'm a stay-at-home mom and although I've found lots of classes and activities here for my 17-month old daughter, its been challenging for me to connect with other mothers and start building a social network. If you have a toddler (born in 2010, let's say) and would like to ge …

Welcome! The purpose of the Support Brokerage Provider Meetup is to connect providers and customers with activities and ideas in their community. The meetup will also allow the metro area brokerages to assist in connecting providers to agency updates, trainings, activities, and other pertinent information.

Do you love to hike but hate the price of gas to the trailhead? This meetup specializes in hikes in and around the Portland metro urban area. Portland has lots of forest, history, hills and canyons to explore. Most hikes will be dog friendly. Starting points will nearly always be accessible by bus. Join us in exploring bits and pieces of the Portland metro area you may not have known existed. Come join us and explore. We'd love to see you.

This is a group of hikers who enjoy diversity of terrain and fellow companions, all of whom are willing to share their experience on the trail, on the mountain, and requires monthly participation. This is not a group for once-a-year participation.

The family-friendly Portland Chapter of the Oregon Nordic Club began in 1968 to promote the values of cross country skiing. Since then, we've grown into a group of friends who telemark, hike, camp, paddle and bike on monthly outings. We love spending outdoor time together in the Northwest forests, mountains, and in-town -- year-round! We are family friendly. A growing group of parents and kids (of all ages) meet to ski, hike and bike. In the past, we've hosted one-day x-country ski lessons and …

Join us while we do things within our comfort zone!! Which means little to no eye-contact, loose plans are always okay (we understand how hard it is to commit to social gatherings), there will be lots of outings that involve little to no actual conversation (until we get comfortable with each other at least) and most importantly alcohol will be involved whenever possible. I'm kidding of course. Sort of. I'm sure there are people out there like me who want to go out and attend meet-ups but their …
