Active Singles Over 60

Active, mature, single, Seattle-area people gathering for widely diverse activities. Among events our group may schedule are: park walks, museum visits, cultural and music festivals, meals and beverages at locally-owned businesses, picnics, concerts, talks, movies/theater performances, live music in parks, trivia nights, short lessons/workshops taught by members or others, hikes, kayaking/canoeing, sports events, regional road trips, and more.

We strive to be inclusive, kind, and considerate to each other. Please ensure that you ask permission before taking photos of other members or posting them online. Please do not contact anyone you have not met and have not gotten to know first during group events for purposes other than brief communication for group activities.

All potential and current members: Please include a recent photo of your own face (minus others in the pic) that is close enough for people to recognize your face. It really helps in recognizing people gathering in public locations. If it's an old pic we may miss each other. If you wish to upload or change the pic you submit or submitted in the past, please see these instructions: https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002878591-Changing-or-removing-a-profile-photo

If all potential members and members would please go to Settings and enable [check off] messaging from organizers and members (who may also be leading activities as event hosts) it would help greatly in communications around gatherings! Membership in this or any other group does not work unless you enable two-way communication from organizers and event planners. [Click on the down arrow beside your photo to begin, Settings, then Privacy.] Under the same category you can also choose to show your other Meetup groups or share your interests by checking "Show interests on profile."

Dues for yearly membership, to which you agree when you join, are a minimal $5.00, donated in person to the primary organizer via cash, or alternatively by Fundraising through the Pledge system, plus a $.45 "tip"[the Pledge fee] or by choosing "other" and overwriting with $5.45. Without both your dues and participation this group cannot exist. It now costs nearly $200 every six months to simply pay the Meetup site to host the group, along with time spent researching and planning events. If we have enough contributions we can plan a one-year membership for around $135 more than that figure.

Any person without good reason to do so who no-shows twice (fails to go to an event to which they said yes for an RSVP without prior notice or post-event communication with the event organizer) may be removed from the group. It takes considerable time and effort to plan some events and it's simply an inconsiderate thing to do.

Thank you. Your organizer and fellow group members look forward to meeting you soon!

Again, your organizer cannot admit anyone to the group nor allow anyone to stay long-term in the group who does not at least enable communication with the organizer and about events for which they have RSVPd. - Membership in any group simply is not viable without enabling communication.
