What we’re about

Welcome to Second Wind Adventures! We are a group of mature adults who are interested, community, friendship, living active lives, both socially and physically. We keep events small enough to encourage conversation and connection.

Our events include: We offer a variety of events. The events span Metro Vancouver.

NO MEMBERSHIP FEES AFTER your attend TWO EVENTS without paying the annual membership. Then, annual fees are $10 for 6 months or $15 annually and are NOT AUTOMATED. (No need to sign up for auto renewal - on Stripe.)

Attention New Members: MEMBERSHIP GUIDELINES
·       APPLY TO JOIN:  Once approved (within 48 hours or less) you will receive an email stating you have been approved and you will be able to RSVP.
·       NO-SHOWS & CANCELLATIONS (except emergencies**) 2 no-shows or repeated last-minute cancellations** (less than 24 hrs), or failure to attend at least one event every 6 months, may result in being removed from the group.

  • Recognition: Use the name you use - not a internet nickname. Provide a clear, close up, unobstructed photo – no sunglasses, other people or hats etc.  This is for safety, but also to help the organizers identify group members, and build relationships. Think about it this way, if you went missing on a hike would the photo help search and rescue. If not, then it isn’t good enough.
  • Membership Application & Respect: Not everyone is a good fit, we reserve the right to approve or decline or revoke membership to encourage a cohesive group.  Please respect organizers and other members. This is not a business networking group. No marketing allowed.
  • Turn on your Notifications & Emails: Organizers and event coordinators who plan events are Volunteers we require a way of contacting you in case of changes to events you are attending. Keep your RSVP updated.    Please change your RSVP immediately, if your plans change. This gives those on the wait list a chance. If you are on the wait list check for updates. If you are moved from the Wait list to Attending and do not attend it counts as a “No Show”.
  • We appreciate suggestions for events and venues.

This is a not for profit group. We intend to grow the membership and the number of organizers and number of events. Membership fees cover the $600 annually, in fees the Organizer pays to Meetup.
Annual Membership: ATTEND TWO EVENTS before paying MEMBERSHIP FEES . (A fee of $10 for 6 months or $15 for one year payable by e-transfer or cash will apply after your first two events. Cash is accepted if your first event is booked to an event where the Lead Organizer is the Host.
NEW MEMBERS: Membership Dues will be payable by e-transfer (preferred) or by Paypal for those who prefer to pay by Credit Card. This does not require you to have a Paypal account. If you are attending an event hosted by Kristi, you can pay membership dues at your first event by "cash".
RENEWALS:
Membership Dues will be due on the anniversary of your initial payment. You will be sent a reminder two weeks in advance. If payment of dues are not paid, your ability to RSVP will be turned off. Your gratitude and appreciation of our efforts makes it worth it, to organizers.
