About us
We need event hosts! Contact me if you'd like to host an event.
This group is for fun loving people in Los Angeles to get together & have a good time. We'll do happy hours, go to LA's many great restaurants, museums, galleries, & performances. How about a day sailing or scuba diving? Beach bonfire, BBQs, a pool tournament, Salsa Night,or Lakers Game? I'd love to get a group together to do some volunteering, or take a group cooking class, or go up to Napa for a weekend.
Members are encouraged to be active in suggesting ideas & to help to make meetups happen. It can be as elaborate as a weekend getaway or a trip to a new country or as simple as a movie night or coffee outing. Anything you enjoy doing, have always wanted to do, or just want to have companionship for. Share your passion, try something new, pick your favorite place to go- whatever! This group will be as active, engaging & diverse as we are.
