Sunshine โ€ข Laughter โ€ข Adventure

Because Adult Friendships Should Be Fun!

We're a husband-and-wife team who traded the hustle and bustle for Florida's sunshine, beaches, palm trees, and endless adventures.

We didn't move here for the politics.

We moved here because we love warm weather, live music, Disney, good food, spontaneous road trips, and saying "yes" to new experiences.

Along the way, we realized something was missing.

We wanted to find people who shared not only our values, but our enthusiasm for life.

So we started this group.

This Meetup is for progressive and liberal-minded adults in their 40's & 50's who want to build genuine friendships with people who enjoy getting out, laughing often, and making the most of everything Central Florida has to offer.

If this sounds like your idea of fun, you'll probably fit right in:

๐ŸŽถ Local bands, cover bands, concerts, and live music
๐Ÿป Happy hours, breweries, wine, bars, and discovering new restaurants
โ˜• Weekend coffee meetups and brunch
๐Ÿฐ Disney days, EPCOT festivals, resort hopping, and seasonal events
๐Ÿ–๏ธ Beach days, springs, and waterfront sunsets
๐Ÿš— Day trips around Florida and spontaneous adventures
โœˆ๏ธ Travel and weekend getaways
๐ŸŽญ Comedy clubs, theater, festivals, and local events
๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ Museums, art walks, and cultural experiences
๐Ÿ˜‚ Lots of laughter and unforgettable memories

We're building a community of people who are:

โ€ข Progressive or liberal-minded
โ€ข In 40's & 50's
โ€ข Friendly, welcoming, and inclusive
โ€ข Curious about the world
โ€ข Emotionally mature
โ€ข Positive and easygoing
โ€ข Kind, respectful and genuine
โ€ข Interested in building real, lasting friendships

We believe shared values help create a comfortable environment where everyone can relax and be themselves. While we all may have different opinions on individual issues, this group is intentionally for people who identify as politically progressive or liberal.

We're not here to argue politics.

We're here to enjoy life together.

This isn't a dating group, a networking group, or a political debate club. While shared progressive values help create the atmosphere we're looking for, our focus is on building friendships and having fun together.

We love families, but this group is all about adults connecting with other adults. Our events are intentionally kid-free so everyone can relax and enjoy the experience.

Our meetup is built around making genuine connections, so we ask that every member use a recent photo of themselves on their profile. Seeing who we're meeting helps create a comfortable, friendly atmosphere for everyone.

Whether we're enjoying happy hour cocktails, meeting for an EPCOT festival, catching live music, discovering a new brunch spot, planning a weekend getaway, or relaxing on the beach, we're here to enjoy life and build the kind of friendships that make Florida feel like home.

If you're looking for good people, good conversation, and a community that values kindness, inclusion, laughter, and adventureโ€ฆyou'll probably feel right at home here.

Let's build the kind of community we've been looking for.
