What we’re about
Let's party... without the hangover! This group is for those who want to meet new people/connect with others that are sober-curious, alcohol-free, or for those who just want to hang out without having the social pressure to have a cocktail. Fun, healthy and novel experiences to meet new friends and form new friendships that can grow beyond the group.
We ask that you are alcohol-free during the events (Cali sober is OK!) but you don't have to be living the sober life 24/7; just while we are out!
Outings won't revolve around discussing not drinking, but you can of course share struggles. Outings may also take place at locations where alcohol is served (mocktails anyone?!), but we ask that you do not drink alcohol at those venues.
Let's have a good time and REMEMBER IT!

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- 45 Min Morning Walk 🏃♂️🏃♀️ at the Beach ☀️🌊Galaxy Towers, Long Beach , CA
Let's make friendships with fitness! 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️This will be a walk at a good pace, but not a "speed" walk. I am shooting for about 2.5 miles in 45 minutes. This will be an in and out route so if you only want to do 30 minutes, you can just turn back around earlier. We will do get to know yous for the first 5 minutes (10 if we have a big group) and then we are off, no later than 7:05-7:10, so be sure to arrive a few minutes early. And yes , 7 AM!
We will walk on the sand by the water unless the tide has made the sand too soft, then it will be the path, but we will try to do water's edge first.
We will meet at the corner of Orizaba and Ocean.
There is street parking on Ocean and plenty of street parking in the neighborhood (1st and Orizaba) as well.*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
