Singles Over 60 Having Fun

Oceanside, CA

The time for Single people over 60 in the North County to meet for dinner, a movie, play, picnic or special event is almost back. I am starting this Meetup because several groups like this have disappeared in the past year. I do hope, however, that some of you who join might be willing to be co-organizers and assist in planning events.

Single Parent Family Meetup (SPFM)

Carlsbad, CA

Who we are: We are a fun-loving active community of San Diego County area single parents. Our group provides a low pressure way to connect with other single parents, with kids 18 and younger, on hikes, kids’ activities, dinners out, events with other single families and more.

Parenting solo is not easy. The mission of this group is to get single parent and children interacting with each other for fun, support and friendship, and enhance lives in the process. <br>

Note: this is not a “singles” dating group. While we do not discourage dating in the group, our focus is on activities and events that foster friendships and support for the parents and kids in the group.

Dues: There are no dues however, Meetup.com does charge us a subscription fee of $14.99 per month (paid every 6 months at $89.94). The Organizers would appreciate everyone contributing $1-$5 each to cover this cost.

Your SPFM Group Profile: Your group profile on Meetup.com is our way of getting to know a bit about you. Please use it to introduce yourself to others in the group. As a safety measure for the single parents and children in our group, we require new members to have a recognizable and recent photo of themselves on their profile at all times, use of your name, and maintain an open profile for this group. Should your posted photo not meet these requirements, any RSVP's may be canceled by the Event Organizer. <br>

Expectations: As the number of members in our group grows, it is important to maintain a high degree of integrity and respect for each other. We expect that members will follow through on their commitments to attend an event when they RSVP “Yes.” Chronic no-shows or late cancellations may result in removal from the group. Please see the document: “Group Expectations” for more about our group and expectation of our members.

Event Hosts and Organizers: <br>

The strength of SPFM is the number of fantastic events on our calendar. This is only possible by having a deep list of event organizers and assistant organizers who do an amazing job coming up with ideas and posting and hosting events. We’d love for you to host an event, too! If you would like to host an event, send an email to the SPFM Board to indicate that you are interested in becoming an event organizer of the group. It is important to note that this group has a policy against cross posting with other groups, for the sake of safety and exclusivity. <br>

CONTACT THE BOARD: Please direct all concerns to the SPFM BOARD, we govern as a board, and contact with the board is the best way to address concerns. You will find the SPFM Board contact information on the left sidebar of all SPFM pages. See the document “Event Host Guidelines” for more information about planning and hosting events, including organizer guidelines. <br>

Once a Member, Always a Member: The relationships forged in this group are often deep and rich. This is true of the friendships our kids make with other kids in the group as well as the relationships their parents form. Most longtime members describe the group as “family.” In order to join Single Parents Family Meetup one must be a single parent at the time of membership. But, of course, life happens. Over time, some find partnership and even marriage. Being a single parent is a lifelong calling. Those who enter into new relationships and even create blended families will always have challenges unique to “single” parents. We rejoice with our members who develop long-term relationships. Our policy with respect to relationships is “once a SPFM member, always a SPFM member.” <br>

All-Volunteer Leadership: We all know the struggles and challenges of being a single parent. SPFM provides a unique and amazing opportunity for support and friendship. It is only possible by the efforts of the all-volunteer organizers and event hosts. Please show your appreciation to our volunteers who put out the time, effort (and often their own money) to organize us and to host events. Sometimes a simple thank-you can make the effort worthwhile. <br>

Our leadership team consists of: <br>

The SPFM Board (a group of 5 Co-Organizers) elected from the membership. <br>

AO's (Assistant Organizers) - Past or founding Organizers. <br>

EO's (Event Organizers) - The people who daily bring you great SPFM happenings. <br>

In 2014 we introduced a SPFM Governing Board consisting of five members. This Board will be responsible for making all policy and disciplinary decisions. Decisions will be by majority vote of Board members. Board members who have a personal stake in a decision (for instance, a disciplinary decision involves a close friend) will be expected to recuse themselves and allow the other Board members to make the decision. Each Board member will be given responsibility for a certain area of SPFM. For instance, one Board member might be responsible for membership. Another for the website. The exact roles and assignments will be determined by the Board. The Board can create additional positions and assign people to fill them. But the Board retains ultimate responsibility for all SPFM functions. The five Board members will come from the ranks of current SPFM Assistant Organizers and will be elected by their AO peers. Board members will be expected to serve for a year, with the option of continuing for a second year if elected. Board members can be removed by majority vote of the Board if they are not adequately fulfilling their responsibilities. Should a vacancy occur on the Board, Board members will select (appoint) a replacement. Being a SPFM Board member is a privilege, but also a great responsibility. It will require a significant time commitment. It will also require the ability to compromise and put the needs of the group above personal feelings. And it requires the ability to take the heat when not everyone agrees with your decision. <br>

Indemnification Of Risk: When you sign up with a “Yes” RSVP for an event, it is assumed that you know the risks involved with that activity and decide to participate at your own risk. Parents assume all risk when they sign a child up for an event. By RSVP’ing “Yes” to an event, you indemnify our group from any problem you should incur because of this risk. Specifically, by requesting membership in the Single Parents Family Meetup you agree to the following: <br>

EXPRESSED ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY I have voluntarily requested to join the Single Parents Family Meetup (SPFM) and/or the SPFM Classified &amp; Help Meetup group (hereinafter, “SPFM”).

These inherent risks include, but are not limited to, the dangers of serious personal injury, property damage, and death (“Injuries and Damages”) from exposure to the hazards of travel. SPFM has not tried to contradict or minimize my understanding of these risks. I know that Injuries and Damages can occur by natural causes or activities of other persons, animal, group members, group organizers or third parties, either as a result of negligence or because of other reasons. I understand that risks of such Injuries and Damages are involved in some of SPFM events and I understand that I may have to exercise extra care for my own person and for others around me in the face of such hazards. I further understand that at any Meetup event there may not be rescue or medical facilities or expertise necessary to deal with the Injuries and Damages to which I may exposed. In consideration of my acceptance as a participant on these Meetup events, and the services and amenities to be provided by SPFM in connection with the Meetup events, I confirm my understanding that: <br>

The Meetup event doesn’t include carpooling, transportation, or transit to and from the Meetup event, and I am personally responsible for all risks associated with this travel.

• If I decided to leave early and not to complete the Meetup event as planned, I assume all risks inherent in my decision to leave and waive all liability against the Single Parent Family Meetup and/or SPFM Classified &amp; Help arising from that decision. This Agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by law. <br>

To the fullest extend allow by law, I agreed to WAIVE, DISCHARGE CLAIMS, AND RELEASE FROM LIABILITY SPFM, its organizers, assistant organizers, and agents (collectively referred to as “the released parties”) from ANY AND ALL LIABILITY on account of, or in any way resulting from Injuries and Damages, even if caused by negligence of the released parties, in any way connected to this Meetup event. I further agree to HOLD HARMLESS SPFM and the released parties from any claims, damages, injuries or losses caused by my own negligence while participant on the Meetup event. I understand and intend that this assumption of risk and release is binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns. <br>

This release of liability includes those who are under my supervision or any friend that I may bring to an event. I assume responsibility for any non-member that I bring/invite to an event. <br>

The provisions of this waiver are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions and partially enforceable provisions shall be binding and enforceable. <br>

I have read this document in it’s entirely and I freely and voluntarily assume all risks of such Injuries and Damages and notwithstanding such risk, I agree to participate in the Meetup event. <br>

Our group sponsors are also single parents: These individuals and businesses help keep this group going. Please patronize and thank them for the generous donation or donations to our group.

Stroke of Luck Golf Group - Intermediate Golf

Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Stroke of Luck Golf Group is an INTERMEDIATE, FUN GOLF group with some FUN AND FRIENDLY COMPETITIONS!  

We are an official SCGA member club.  Members may establish their SCGA indexes thru our group (for an additional fee) or may get them thru other SCGA qualified clubs.  We do not require members to have an SCGA handicap but we encourage it to allow our members the most chances to win "net" competitions for trophies and prizes.  ALMOST ALL of our members DO have SCGA indexes.

Our competitions include a monthly qualifier for our club championship that is held each fall. We also host three - 2 day competitions (partner eclectic, individual eclectic and team cup event) which are hosted at Encinitas Ranch (alternating with another course), Morgan Run and Ram's Hill.  Each of our regular events that are not monthly qualifiers will also have some fun game/competition for prizes that will be based on gross and net scores.

We host 2 events per month at golf courses around the San Diego, Orange County, Temecula and Palm Springs areas. 

We do an annual trip to La Quinta Resort which includes a day of 2 person match play and 2 days of fun golf with some type of competition.

We have been to Southern Ireland, Scotland (including St. Andrews), Myrtle Beach and Northern Ireland with many more trips to come!

The $50 annual membership fee, pays for the TROPHIES, MONEY AWARDS AND PRIZES at our events. You will make this fee back in your first round or two of golf with the group as we get discounts of $35 to $150 on the rounds we play.

The annual membership fee must be paid at least 7 days prior to your first event or within 30 days of joining.  If not paid by this time, we will assume you have changed your mind and may gently remove you from the group.  You are welcome back at any time.

Once your membership is approved we will send you an invoice to pay the membership dues electronically (i.e. Zelle).  We can accept checks but discourage it because it is alot of work for a volunteer!
   
We have a strict group policy for late cancellations and no-shows for our events. You may be charged if you cancel after the RSVP deadline or do not show up for an event.  This enables us to bring the exact number of players we contract for to the course and keeps our rates for golf much lower than other groups.

Please read the entire GROUP POLICY on the Discussion Board BEFORE you RSVP for any events.

As an intermediate level golf group, we expect all players will have a good pace of play, keep up with the group in front of them, adhere to golf etiquette and pick-up at NET double par.  Trash talking however is also encouraged. :-)

We have been hosting over golf events for nearly years and are approaching 500 EVENTS!!!

We have been organizing golf events of 4 to 84 players at the nicer courses in the San Diego Area, Temecula, Palm Springs, Myrtle Beach, Ireland and even Scotland.  Myself and the 7 other organizers have a reputation for hosting excellent golf events at a HUGE variety of courses that always include a pretty fun 19th hole and prizes and raffles!!!

We focus on nicer courses in the San Diego and surrounding area at substantially DISCOUNTED rates.  We have such a good reputation with courses that the COURSES OFTEN CONTACT US TO BOOK AND IF THE PRICE/PACKAGE ISN'T GOOD ENOUGH WE DON'T GO!!! The courses we will play will include but not be limited to: The Crossings, Twin Oaks, The Legends, Maderas, The Grand Del Mar, Coronado, Barona, La Quinta (Palm Springs), La Costa, Encinitas Ranch, Steele Canyon, Aviara, Marine Memorial, Talega, El Camino Country Club, Shadowridge, Lomas Sante Fe Country Club, Golf Club of California, Arrowood and Pechanga.

Golfers of INTERMEDIATE LEVEL or better that have good golf etiquette are invited to join.

San Diego Social Golf tm

San Diego, CA

This is a social co-ed golf group that is very active. We welcome golfers of all skill levels. With our golf events there is always something for everyone and you can always find someone to golf with. We get golf discounts, arrange golf tournaments and negotiate golf green fees at top rated golf courses in San Diego. We have been organizing golf outings and golf tournaments successfully since 2006. We are different from the other golf meetup groups because we host several weekday rounds and operate a Low Net Golf League within our group that is optional. So if you are competitive that option is available too.

We operate golf events as large groups every weekend.. We golf all over San Diego county, usually alternating from North county, to South county, to East county, then Central county golf courses. Members can suggest events or post a foursome they've reserved and organizers will announce the member event after reviewing all necessary information is included in the suggested event.

There is a fee of $75 for a  membership in this group. There are no tournament fees or additional charges above what the golf courses charge us.

These membership fees always go back to the golf group in one form or another. The general fund is used to pay for drinks, food and tournament prizes. Looking forward to meeting you.

Hiking Addicts - Excellent Hiking Adventures

San Marcos, CA

Hiking Addicts is all about excellent hiking adventures (as well as post-hike socializing). We may throw in the occasional trail biking event, but our priority is having good times on hiking adventures, laughing, and building relationships with quality people. This group is a fun, relaxed and friendly group of folks who love to hike, and maybe share a meal after an adventurous day.

There are so many wonderful places and views to explore all over our San Diego County. We often learn about nature, geocaching, map reading, survival skills, and, most importantly, how to find our way back to our cars! If you are a beginner, intermediate, or experienced hiker, you are welcome on our adventures. We all have our own hiking pace and abilities and you can feel free to hike fast, medium, or slow. No one will be left behind! (No rescue helicopters will be needed to search for you!) We have several Hikeaholics experienced at the back of the pack. We may hike at sunrise or sunset, at the beach or the mountains, in rain, hail, wind, daylight, or moonlight and everything in-between. Come join us for some exercise along our beautiful North County trails that we can explore together.

If you are qualified and want to be an Event Organizer, great! We have lots of opportunities for all to participate at any level of involvement you desire. This group is your group so we are eager to hear about new ideas for great hiking and outdoor adventures.

Except for expenses anyone would incur when hiking (gas/carpool money, food, park entrance, gear, etc), this group is FREE. No organizer will ever ask you to pay or donate just to attend an outing. We simply love being outside and want to share the experience with others.

We are not professional guides and all outings are at your own risk. By joining this group and attending an event, you are demonstrating that you understand you are responsible for your own safety. Information on proper gear and safety checklists, as well as a release of liability, can be found in our Files section. (Click on “More,” then go to “Files.”) We also highly recommend that you carry your own medical and auto insurance policies.

JUST SAY YES TO YOUR HIKING ADDICTION

There are fees from Meetup we have to pay regularly for this site. Please make a volunteer contribution based on amount of fun you have hiking with Hikaholics. 

See you on the trails soon,
The Hiking Addicts Team
Cheers!

“ THERE ARE MOMENTS IN TIME WHEN LIVES COME TOGETHER & THERE IS HARMONY. SHARE A DAY ON THE TRAIL WITH THE HIKING ADDICTS & YOU WILL KNOW WHY WE EACH OF US HAS SOMETHING TO OFFER TO ONE ANOTHER. ”

The San Diego North County Pagans

Vista, CA

Merry Meet and Welcome to the San Diego North County Pagans!

Who we are:

This community, which began in the Spring of 2003, supports those who walk all paths, from Shamans, Druids, Witches and Wiccans, to Buddhists, Hindus, Occultists, and many other Spiritual Paths. We welcome a wide variety from solitaries, to covens and informal groups, to anyone with an open mind. Whatever your level of experience, you will be welcome here! We are an eclectic community, recognizing that no one single approach to Divinity is the "right" or "true" way. We all have things to teach, inspire and share with each other. Please have patience, tolerance, respect, and compassion for your fellow members. We're all here to learn and grow.

We are not an online group. We encourage our members to be active and contribute!

What we do & what do you need to know:

The mission of this meetup is to plan and support Pagan events that are community driven. When you contribute your energy, ideas, and time, it reflects the needs and desires of the community. Even a novice can contribute to help us celebrate the Sabbats, organize classes, and coordinate our yearly Samhain camping retreat. Some of the other types of meetups we have offered are classes of various topics, healing circles, divination parties, day trip adventures and so much more.

We have primarily been an in-person meetup up until the pandemic where we moved to a virtual platform for events. However, post-pandemic, we are still evaluating the needs of the community. Whether in person or virtually, we encourage our members to be active and contribute! If you are inactive for 6 months or longer, you’ll be removed to make space for someone on the waiting list.

Yes, we started a waiting list, as mentioned, when we implemented a membership cap in October 2019. Also, for security and the privacy of our meetup, we have a vetting process for in person attendance. If you’d like to join and attend one of our meetups, please be aware that you will be contacted by an Organizer for questions and introductions.

Our meetups are family friendly and “adults only” events will be specified as so.

All our meetups are free apart from our annual campout reservation costs. Part of being in service, is to give back, and so we do. If you’d like to contribute to the cost of supplies, the meetup listing or make a donation, we will gladly accept but all proceeds go back into the meetup. Feel free to contact the Organizer with any questions.

Where we are:

We're based in North San Diego county, approximately from Oceanside to Escondido and south towards Del Mar and Poway. We have both public and private events. If you’re willing to travel, we’re willing to have ya!

When we do events:

We celebrate the turning of the wheel, the seasonal 8 celebrations, known as Sabbats, that mark changes in the solar cycle. We also celebrate the lunar cycles which can include Full Moons, known as Esbats, to New Moons and everything in between. While some of these have fixed dates, sometimes we celebrate on the closest weekend.
