What we’re about
Our Group is designed for friendly, active people (50+ yrs and older) in the Lake Country area (Waukesha County, Wisconsin). This Group is for singles and couples who want to have more fun in their lives and make new friends. We offer a variety of events with something for everyone. The Lake Country area has so much to offer and it is more fun sharing with friends. Please join us!
We encourage all of our members to attend events, as well as host events! Just ask one of our Co-Organizers (Kim E, Carol V. or L a e h) to make you an Event Organizer so you can host an event of your own! Hesitant to host an event by yourself, ask another member or friend to host it with you!
Please be aware that our Group is not intended to be used as a dating service. Members will be asked to leave the Group if it appears that is the sole purpose for joining.
Fees: No joining fee at this time. There may be a small donation asked for to cover the annual fee charged by Meetup LLC ($198/yr) to host the group on their website.
MEMBER REQUIREMENTS
• At least 49 years old.
• Profile photo. This isn't a group where people remain anonymous. Members join in order to meet folks. Your picture in your profile will help all of us to recognize & remember you when you attend an activity. It's especially helpful for event hosts to watch for newcomers who attend the activity.
• Be kind. We want everyone to feel welcome and have fun at our events.
• Be respectful. Treat others like you would like to be treated (both group members and all staff members of the establishments we visit). Verbal harassment, bullying, shaming, malicious gossip, contemptuous speech, are unacceptable. Also, unwelcome touching, romantic or sexual advances will not be tolerated.

Members who are a NO SHOW at events where expenditures were made on their behalf are required to reimburse the host. If they don't, they may be removed from the group.
• Thank your host(s) . They are members, unpaid volunteers, whose mission is to provide the best experience possible.
