What we’re about

* PLEASE NOTE: There is currently a waitlist to join this group.

This Private Group consists of mature individuals who are serious about fully participating and fostering real friendships with like-minded and professional people.

This is not like other large groups on Meetup. In order to maintain your status in this Private Group, you must please agree and adhere to the following guidelines:

Mandatory Member Guidelines:

-Please RSVP to all events/activities whether you're attending or not
-If something comes up and you can no longer attend the activity/event, please adjust your RSVP through Meetup no later than 48 hours prior to the event
-No show's won't be tolerated and you'll be removed from the Private Group
-If these guidelines aren't adhered to you'll be removed from the Private Group

Other Details:
You will require money to be a part of this Private Group in order to pay for your meals and purchase tickets to events etc. For example, if we meet to play Golf, everyone is responsible to pay for their own entrance fee. If we attend a Jazz festival as a group, everyone is responsible for purchasing their own tickets and paying for any food or drinks purchased at the event.

The purpose of this Group is to make genuine and lasting friendships with like-minded people.

The intent is to have both men and women in this group.
