The Vibrant Women's Community

Welcome to the Vibrant Women’s Community! 🌞🌺🍀
We are a group of women connecting, creating friendships, and enjoying curated events together.

((**IGNORE all of Meetups pesky asks for you to "donate" for fundraising for our group!! I have no idea where any of that money **))

We gather for:
🍝 Lunches — at local restaurants
☕ Coffee Chats
🚶‍♀️ Walks in local parks and trails
🧶🎨 Creative workshops and crafting sessions
🍴🥧 Sack lunches, Potlucks, and 🎄🎃🎈🎉 holiday celebrations
🌸 Field trips to local flower farms in spring, vineyards in summer, and cultural events year-round.

We are committed to making our events a Political Discussion Free Zone (PDFZ). We come together to celebrate what we share and to learn from our differences, creating a welcoming space for growth, connection, and inclusion with minimal drama.

We strive to be welcoming to women over 50 in the Portland metro area  -Westside, Eastside, and beyond. Members may be retired, still working, long-time locals, or new arrivals to the greater PDX area. What unites us is our shared desire to connect, contribute, and have fun together.

The Vibrant Women’s Community is designed to be a collaborative, community-driven group rather than one centered around a single organizer’s schedule. As the primary organizer, I currently host events during weekday daytime hours, which aligns with my availability.

That said, this group is intentionally open to member-led events. Any member who is interested in hosting, planning, or organizing events for the community is welcome and encouraged to do so. This includes evenings, weekends, or any other times that suit your schedule and interests.

If you would like to host an event or have ideas you would enjoy bringing to the group, please feel free to reach out.

Shared hosting allows the community to offer a wider range of events while remaining welcoming, flexible, and sustainable for everyone involved.

Please be mindful when signing up for events. If you’ve RSVP’d “Going” and your plans change, please update your reservation as soon as possible so another member can attend. Many of our gatherings have waitlists, and this small courtesy helps keep things running smoothly for everyone.

To keep our community thriving, we do keep track of attendance. If a member “no-shows,” without updating their RSVP, their membership may be deleted to make space for others who are actively participating.
