BUSHWALKING REQUIREMENTS AND GUIDELINES:
1. Walks are planned ahead of time as best they can be. Sometimes unforeseen events require the organiser of the walk to change the date. If you've signed up, you will be notified if this occurs. Hopefully you can still participate.
2. Walks can also be cancelled. This is typically due to the organiser being ill or bad weather. Often these cases arise on the last minute. All organisers need to cancel a walk no later than 7:30am the day of the walk. Waiting later than that is very unfair to the participants.
3. You should always check your email and meetup.com prior to leaving your home before attending a walk to make sure there are no last minute changes.
4. If a walk fills up and you still want to go, email the walk organiser and see if they'll let you come along.
5. First aid kits need to be taken on all Blue Mountains or major bushwalks! I have one that I'm happy to let other organisers use if they don't have one and I am not going on the walk. Please make sure to return it to me the week after the walk is over.
6. Your walk ideas are encouraged so send them to me or another organiser. It would be nice to offer more walks so come on and volunteer to be an assistant organiser.

This MeetUp event is great for people who love comedy and having a laugh - all while meeting someone new. The event organiser has been running MeetUp events for over three years.
He came to Sydney about five years ago and found MeetUp a great way to connect with new people and make new mates.
This MeetUp is great for travellers, people living in Sydney who would like to meet new people, and even singles who are looking to make new connections.
Because you're voting on the comedians during the show, there's plenty of options to chat during the show. Plus there's an intermission. The event usually finishes at around 9:15, so you can also keep on hanging out after the show - the venue closes at midnight!
The Bank is one of Newtown's best bars. This event takes place in the exclusive rooftop section of The Bank. There's an outdoor area for smokers, as well as a great selection of food and drinks. Newtown is in Sydney's inner west and is one of the best areas for nightlife in Sydney.
The Bank is conveniently located right next to Newtown station. It's on King Street, which is easily available by bus or car as well. If you're parking, we recommend looking for parks around Australia Street, or behind the Bank around Angel Street.
