I'm a 34 year old stay at home mom in Schaumburg that has both children in school. I realize just how isolating it can be. I love socializing and going out for coffee. It hit me that I bet there are plenty of others out there that would like to get out, meet new people, and enjoy a drink. I was thinking of meeting at a different Starbucks depending where everyone lives for each meet up. I'm open to other coffee shops and we can always vote if we want to stay with Starbucks or chose to altern …

This group was started because we've found that although he may have his "guy friends" and she may have her "girl friends", it's nice to hang out as couples sometimes too.  Maybe you're new to the area or you're finding it harder to get together with friends due to family obligations or what not - whatever the reason, this group is a perfect place to meet new, normal, fun people who love to laugh and have a good time.  This group is geared towards those in their twenties/thirties. Here's a sampl …

Let's do this... Events! Explore and Enrich our Lives! So many of us remain trapped in the shell of the familiar, never venturing out to see different locations, eat new foods or even hear music we’re not accustomed to. EXPOSURE is a choice! Let's do this... Events is an eclectic Meetup Group organized exclusively to facilitate socializing, expose exploration, and dedicated to the shared enjoyment of life. Participation in this eclectic Group is strongly encouraged for any individuals who have a …

So you're bored, I mean like really bored and you decided to sign up for meet up. There are some crazy folks out there and meeting them in private at a local spot still seems disheartening. He might be bald or she might have 10 kids and three divorce under her belt..yea, crazy shit. My goal for this meetup group is to occasionally hit up clubs/bars and dance our asses off. Maybe grab some last minute tickets to go see a-no-longer-in-his-prime-but-is-still-trying comedy show, a good laugh is alw …

This group is now 2 years old and getting better all the time. The group is small enough we can get to know each other rather than a new group of strangers to play with each week. Our members are fun, interesting smart women of various ages and backgrounds. Rummikub is the most fun you can have at a game table with women. It takes a little strategy, a little luck, and some great friends to play with.  Not terribly hard to learn, but it is a little addictive! We play weekdays, usually Tuesday and …

Hello. I'm a guitar player who is not ready to 'play out' at this point as I am a bit rusty/have not picked up the instrument regularly in a while. I very much want to get back to playing/creating again, however. I am not a songwriter, not yet anyway, and I am not looking for perfect players, as the purpose here is to have fun, be creative, laugh, let go of our egos, ( as much as is humanly possible anyway). All aspects of musicianship are welcome: songwriters, singers, yes, even tamborine playe …

I would love to meet other women in the Skokie area who are working professionals and love reading! Let's start a book discussion group with slightly older women, 50ish, who would love to laugh, talk, and enjoy great books!

This group is specifically for single African-American and Latino professionals interested in meeting other like-minded professionals for the purpose of finding love! This group is owned and operated by matchmaking agency, Shawn Mackenzi Agency. We all know how difficult it is to find honest, intelligent, and driven people in Chicago. This group will take away some of that hardship. Each month, this group will hold a networking event at one of Chicago premiere restaurants. We will eat, we will l …
