What we’re about
Our Group Mission is:
1. Bring together a group of people who love to explore NYC. Our group is dedicated especially to fun activities outside of the typical NY bar scene(which means many times alcohol and a bar might be present, we dont want to totally discriminate, haha). There is so much to do in New York and we plan to bring you best of a variety of events.
2. If we can't host/plan and event, we still want to be your source for great things to do in NYC. We will be sending out a daily email of the Top Things To Do each day(most will be free too!). The email will also be archived on our message board so people can comment and gather there. If we cant host the event ourselves, we still hope members can reach out and get together. ****Please not if you do not wish to receive our daily email, you can adjust your settings so you do not get the email ***
We are all about fun, social, and networking. Events will be in a melting pot of different things, kinda like our great city. Look forward to meeting you!
