Hi my name is Shakura and I am taking over leadership of the Fun Sober Times Sacramento group.

In December of 2022 I decided to quit alcohol. I was very lonely once I went sober. I had just moved to Sacramento and going out drinking was the easiest way to make friends in your 30’s. I was tired of the bar scene and I was seeking real authentic connections. All the Meetup groups were centered around drinking and meeting in bars. I longed for a space of like minded individuals that also did not want to participate in the drinking culture but still enjoyed things like dancing, sporting events, game nights, concerts etc.

I was contacted by Seerat, the founder of the Fun Sober Times group and I was asked to host events. I hosted sober events including karaoke night, music bingo, concerts in the park..
Now Seerat has passed the group to me and I want to honor her original vision.

This group is open to the sober curious, those seeking treatment, and anyone who wants to enjoy life soberly. Last year we had a few events where guests decided to drink alcohol at our events. Out of respect for our members on their sober journeys, that will not be tolerated. Anyone found violating our rules will be banned from our group.
This is also NOT a dating service. Anyone found harassing or stalking guests will be banned and reported. Now that we got the housekeeping stuff out the way, let’s get into the fun stuff.

My vision for this group is to get people off their phones, get outside and enjoy face to face interactions. As a society we are losing the art of face to face human connection. Younger people do not have the social skills the older generations have. And there is so much division, it is becoming harder to relate to each other. I am hoping to change that, in any small way I can.

No matter your story, I want you to feel accepted, seen and heard. As long as you lead with kindness and empathy, you’ll always have a place in the Fun Sober Times group.

I am looking for 5 new hosts who have the skills and time to put together events. If you have the social skills to bring strangers together to help create a sober community, then I want to hear from you!

Send me an email at [Kura_105@yahoo.com](mailto:Kura_105@yahoo.com)

  1. Why did you join the Sober Fun Times?
  2. What events would you like to host?
  3. What skills will you bring to our group?

I look forward to hearing from those of you who want to host events. Everyone else, I can't wait to meet you at a future event!

Kind Regards,
Shakura
