What we’re about
Hi all! I recently took over this group and am super new to running one! I live in P.H., but happy to travel for a good movie! I have found that as you get older, it can be challenging to meet new people. I am keeping this group as a movie & dining club that will allow people to meet and socialize. I would also love a couple of co-hosts if possible!
The general idea: we would go to the movies 1-2 times a month and then go out to brunch/lunch/ dinner or drinks afterwards. It’s a great way to meet people and you’ll easily have something to discuss.
Please share with me your movie preferences and if there is a restaurant you like or are excited to try!
I intend to plan movies in Pleasant Hill,Concord and Walnut Creek.
