What we’re about
Women 40+ Making New Friends in Vegas, Baby! is an inclusive group for women (anyone who identifies as a woman), 40 years old and over, who want to make new friends in Las Vegas. NO MEN ALLOWED. Hopefully, you’re also kind, genuine, accepting, and not superficial. This group is not affiliated with any religion or organization. Our group is a safe space for women to meet other women for friendship through activities and events. Members must use their real first name and have a profile picture that clearly shows their face to join the group.
The planned social activities and events will foster friendships, such as meeting for food or drinks, local events, shows, concerts, movies, nature walks, sharing hobbies, dog walks, dog parks, hikes, book clubs, arts and crafts, volunteering, game nights, etc. The possibilities are endless. If you have an idea for an event, please let me know, and I will make you an event organizer so you can create the event. We all live in different areas of Las Vegas, so you might like to plan an event on your side of town or even a virtual event on Zoom. If you organize or plan an event, you must be there to host it.
Please be kind and courteous. Anyone who is unfriendly, aggressive, or disruptive will be removed from the group. No marketing, no spam, no self-promotion, no religious proselytizing. No hate speech or bullying; this is an anti-racist group that will not tolerate any degrading comments about race, culture, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, marital status/partnership, language preference, socioeconomic status, or religion/spirituality. No fat-shaming/body-shaming/fat-phobia comments or otherwise derogatory comments about people's appearances allowed.
Please do not bring children to events. If you RSVP to bring a +1 to an event, it needs be a woman who is 40+ who wants to make new friends.
ATTENDANCE POLICY:
Please RSVP with integrity and change your RSVP as soon as you know you can’t attend. COMMUNICATION with the event host is key. Message the event host and let them know if you can't make it. RSVPs changed within 24 hours of the event are considered same-day cancelations. Not showing up for an event you RSVPed for, without contacting the host to let her know, is considered a no-show. We know everyone has emergencies, but no-shows are disrespectful and will result in removal from the group. Same-day cancelations may result in removal from the group if it's repetitive and you do not communicate to let the host know what's going on.
Generally, the group provides TWO courtesy no-shows before getting removed from the group. Please be especially conscientious of events with reservations, a waitlist, or if you are on a waitlist as you could get on the going list. It's your responsibility to keep track of the events you sign up for and your attendance status.
However, it is up to each Event Organizer to determine a member's attendance status if that member has had a history of excessive last-minute drops or a no-show. So, as a reciprocal courtesy, please communicate with the Event Host of an event if you have any last-minute attendance issues. Communication is appreciated; not showing up is not.
If you're feeling sick, please stay home.
