… So, I thought that creating “Weekend Friends” would be a great idea for women like me living in the East Bay (I’m in El Cerrito) to connect with friends with similar lives and experiences. This is a private group for women in their 40’s and 50’s that are active, friendly, professional, and want to get out on the weekend with a friend. I’ll be adding an activity that I plan on doing on a Saturday or Sunday and hope a few friends will join me. There are some great movies coming out, so I’ll be hea …

East Bay Family Club is a East Bay Meetup group that's all about fun! Whether its going out and trying new restaurants, hosting families at home for meals, family shopping dates and play dates or anything else, this is the family club you will want to be a part of!

Do you want to try new restaurants? How about meeting nice people from your area? Are you open to many different kinds of cuisines and can picture yourself dining at holes in the wall as well as fine dining places? Let's go out there and see what the East Bay has to offer. Who knows which gems we will find? And to make it easier (and more interesting) for us, we chose the venues according to their names. First one will start with an A, next month we will visit a place starting with a B and so on …

This group is for those who are living a primal/paleo lifestyle or are interested in starting or learning more about it. The Norcal Paleo group is fantastic, but I live in the East Bay and sometimes making it over to the South Bay potlucks is either impossible or feels really out of reach. It's always nice and fun to hang out with people with a similar health outlook and eating habits especially since ours hasn't been quite widely accepted just yet! So for anyone already a part of our "cave" lif …

WELCOME We're looking for other folks who, like us, have been bitten by the 'memoir bug' and would benefit from the outlet and support offered by a writing circle. Our group meets in the East Bay -- right now in South Berkeley -- twice a month.  We start with a prompt (or jump-off) exercise, then read work we’ve brought and give each other feedback. We welcome the interest of anyone who is willing to:  (1) Attend each of the sessions between now and June 3rd.  (2) Begin writing, if you haven't a …

Hi, there!   I am eager to put together a dynamite ensemble of 8-16 adult singers for SATB musical arrangements. Are you "up" for some serious hard work and performance fun in our community?     The East Bay Singers Group would sing a capella and accompanied music. I am imagining the ensemble performing a variety of styles and perhaps some choreographed movement that might be appropriate to the style of music (not complex dancing, in other words, so no worries!). My goal would be to put together …

Meet and mingle with local Japanese language and culture lovers! Come to a Japanese Language Meetup to meet with lots of fun people with a shared interest (oh hey that's what meetup is all about!) We have activities mainly in East Bay and occasionally in San Francisco.

This group is for all Pit Bull and other bully breed owners in the East Bay. We will host organized walks where we can show off how amazing these dogs truly are! All dogs are welcome, including dogs with some social issues. This is a great way to work on socializing your dog in a controlled and safe manner. All dogs must be on a leash (no retractable leashes or long lines), and everyone must be respectful of each others pets and avoid leash greeting your dog(s) without asking owner's permission. …

Spirituality is about life, not boredom. Spiritual life doesn't just happen in a single building, or one day a week.  Are you interested in exploring what it means to be Christian in a faith community that celebrates the gifts of all cultures and all people -- queer, straight, trans, cis, men and women -- and that values creation, creativity, and justice? We're hoping to meet a few people in different parts of the East Bay who want to experience a community of prayer and practice, instead of jus …

Have you transplanted out here 6 months or ten years ago? Do you miss that east coast personality? The east coast "edge" isn't really the same when few people "get" your sarcastic sense of humor and direct communication style. This meetup is for the east coast transplant looking to find other native east coasters in the Bay Area.

Looking to start a new group for East Coasters (ages 30-50) that have moved to the West Coast. I am from NY (43 years old) and miss my East Coast friends. I live in the East Bay and would love to meet some fun people who still have that East Coast mentality. :)
