20到30歲這個年齡段|找個地方,慢慢認識 想拉一個混齡小群。 20歲到30歲,其實沒差幾歲, 但看世界的方式,好像有點不一樣。 週末有空的時候,一起: 桌遊|別太認真,開心就好 聊聊哲學|或聊聊廢話 爬山|出點汗,換口氣 citywalk|走哪裡算哪裡 或者其他活動 沒有固定流程,不搞形式主義。 只是想認識一些: 年齡不同、但頻道對得上的人。 meet up報名後會私訊你拉你進群 群裡面會時不時有活動通知 Age 20 - Age 30 | Finding a place to slowly get to know each other** I want to form a mixed-age small group. Being 20 - 30 years old isn’t that different, but the way we see the world seems a bit different. On weekends when we're free, let’s: - Play board games | Not too serious, just have fun - Discuss philosophy | Or just chat about random stuff - Go hiking | Get some exercise and fresh air - City walk | Just go wherever we feel like - Or engage in other activities There won’t be a fixed agenda, and we won’t engage in formality. I just want to meet people from different ages who resonate with each other. Sign up on meet up and I will message you to let you join the group. There will be occasional activity notifications in the group. 活動所有內容請以中文版為準 Please refer to the Chinese version for all event details.

Brunch Club: Make New Friends
Brunch Club: Make New Friends
⚠️ **IMPORTANT: You must sign up and buy a ticket here to attend:** [https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/) **Join the Columbus City Brunch Club and make new friends!** Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit. 👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:** [https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/) We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan. **Why this works:** \* Smaller groups make real conversations easier. \* Discover new restaurants in your city, together. \* Curated lunch venues with good food and vibe. \* If you hit it off with your group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards. **Note:** RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on [Meetup.com](http://meetup.com/) is only a placeholder. This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
Bowling and Drinks
Bowling and Drinks
Let’s knock down some pins and knock back a few drinks while we’re at it. Bowling is one of the best stress relievers out there, so bring your A game and let’s see what you’ve got. It’s $20 per person, which includes free shoe rental and two hours of open bowling. We’ll start with six people per lane. Once we have six, we’ll grab our lane and get rolling. If more people show up after that, we’ll snag the lane right next to us and keep the party going. Come ready to have some fun.
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
