About us
Greetings! Welcome to Active Lifestyle Nerds (ALN), the friendliest Meetup group in San Diego. We strive towards building a safe and social community of active nerds. We understand how difficult it is for a nerd to get out of their home and meet new people. We understand that many of you out there don’t even consider yourselves nerds, because the word “nerd” still has negative connotations. We are trying to change that. ALN bridges that gap and creates a welcoming environment, where we can all bask in our nerd glory – judgement free. Let’s face it, the average person in a bar, club, or other common area where people socialize, often lacks the level of nerdism needed to have a good Fire Fly conversation or a discussion of “who shot first” (it was definitely Han Solo, folks). Our organization has 20 coordinators, allowing for a multitude of diverse social events. We offer board game nights, brewery and wine tastings, ultimate Frisbee and kickball, book clubs, hiking, bar hopping, networking, movie outings, and much more. It is here that nerds can make friends, form bonds, and thrive in a community that accepts them for who they are. For who you are. Our group was founded in 2012, and have grown since then into a family over 7000 strong!
Come have new adventures and meet new friends at ALN!
Stay active, stay nerdy.

Foodie Nerds do Dim Sum
China Max Dumpling House, 4698 Convoy St c101, San Diego, CA 92111, USA, San Diego, CA, USJoin us for all-you-can-eat dim sum at China Max on Convoy. Check out their menu at www.Chinamaxdumplinghouse.com. They have over 45 dishes to pick from and everything is made to order (no dim sum carts). The AYCE includes ALL the dishes and some non-alcoholic drinks – but there is a 90-minute time limit and unfinished items are charged at full price. So order whatever you want, but eat what you order!
The price will be about $50 per person - including tax and tip.
NOTE: the reservation is only for eight - so to prevent flaking there is a $10 deposit that will be directly applied to your meal cost. If you sign up, you must pay the deposit within 2 days or I’ll move you to the waitlist and give someone else a chance. Sorry to be strict, but if you no-show or cancel less than 24 hours before the event, you forfeit the deposit. You can Venmo me at @marisaguzzardo – if you don’t have Venmo, message me and I can give you my paypal or Zelle info.
Parking can be a *challenge* in the Convoy District. There is a small parking lot for the restaurant, but most likely it’ll be full. Plan on street parking and give yourself time to find a spot and walk a few blocks. There is also a paid parking garage about two blocks away on Dagget Street.
