What we’re about
MISSION STATEMENT
Our mission is to create a welcoming and fun space for mommas and their kids for kids of all ages to meet, play, love and more! We are a community that grows with you from playdates to mom only gatherings...because moms need friends too! Friendship is for every stage of motherhood so we offer something for everyone.
VISION
Our vision is to be a place for mommas in the Triangle to find support and friendship.
WHO WE ARE
We’re a group of mommas who are passionate about supporting each other through life’s many twists and turns, while providing our children with a happy, warm, and safe place to play and thrive. We also love to enjoy mom-only walks, brunches, dinners, etc.
We want to be fully transparent about our vision for the group, various roles, and the financial plan for member dues. Meet. Play. Love. is made possible because of the time and energy of our members, including the efforts of the leaders. The roles of the leaders are voluntary and not paid, and are there to serve the good of the group. The current 2025 leaders are Brittney Braddy, Kate Wunderink, Kristin Miller, Cassie Harvey, and Briley Vickery.
Responsibilities of MPL leaders include event hosting(although we encourage all members to host), verifying new member requests, managing member dues and creating/managing a budget. We appreciate your trust and ensure we will be fully transparent in every area. In keeping with that our accounting team has set up a separate banking account for Meet. Play. Love. Membership dues go directly into and are held in that account.
Meetup charges a bi-annually fee to use the platform. The remaining balance will remain in the Meet. Play. Love. bank account. We have some ideas for the remaining funds including but not limited to parties and member celebrations. The leadership team is available to answer any financial questions you may have.
We look forward to seeing you at events. We encourage you to host. Most importantly we are excited for this group to serve our community.
ATTENDANCE/WAITLIST
We aim to offer a variety of events, some have uncapped attendance while others have capacity restraints due to supplies, logistics and/or business partnerships. If there is a waitlist for an event you want to attend, join the waitlist. Often things happen, people can no longer attend and many on the waitlist are able to attend.
If you are on a waitlist for an event and then make other plans or realize you could no longer attend, please remove yourself from the waitlist as soon as possible. This allows those on the waitlist the chance to plan accordingly and attend.
SICK POLICY
For the health and safety of our members and their children, please refrain from attending any Meet. Play. Love. events if you or any member of your household are presenting any of the following symptoms within 24 hours of the event:
-A temperature of 100 degrees or higher (before fever-reducing medication)
