What we’re about
WELCOME to an exciting group of African-Americans and Special Friends of any culture or nationality. Average age range is 40 to 60+. Younger people comfortable with this age group may join as well. The purpose of Black Love and Friends Cincinnati is to provide a bevy of FUN activities and events where people can congregate and make new friends in an easy social networking way.
We dine out, dance, go to festivals, kayak, horseback ride, helicopter ride, get lost in the corn maze, and so many more activities! 😍
We love, honor and respect our Men and Women. Members are encouraged to offer ideas of activities and events that they would enjoy participating in.
RSVP POLICY: RSVP ONLY IF YOU INTEND TO COME TO THE EVENT. IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT, PLEASE CHANGE YOUR RSVP TO "Not Going" THE MORNING OF THE EVENT OR WHEN THE ORGANIZER/EVENT HOST REQUEST THAT YOU DO SO. IF YOU DO NOT, YOU WILL GET FLAGGED AS A "No Show". THREE NO SHOWS AND YOU WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. CL Connie McWilliams
We welcome members to become Event Hosts. We would post the event you’re interested in, and you greet the members as they come together. There may be other responsibilities yet all can be done with minimal effort.
PHOTO POLICY: Events may be photographed or recorded. By attending events, you grant BLACK LOVE AND FRIENDS (all locations) the right to use your name and image as recorded and/or photographed, to promote BLACK LOVE AND FRIENDS and release the groups from all liability associated with the use of your name, image and statements.
Black Love and Friends Cincinnati was born out of its sister group "Black Love & Friends: Grown Sexy Wise and Mature" (now "Black Love Family and Friends...,") in Greater Cincinnati. Come join us! Get from behind the computer, come out and have a social life! And know our abiding theme, “It’s all about L-O-V-E...”
