If you've been curious about European/Non-traditional board games, (also called Euros), or simply want to meet new people, join us! There's quite a few gaming groups in Portland already, but after hosting my own co-ed group for several years I've found that not nearly as many women as men game so I decided to start this group as an alternative. New players and all ages/orientations of women are welcome. Those who want to teach a specific game to the group are particularly encouraged to contact m …

Our group fosters community and meetups for card players outside the Poker tables (Poker is well-covered by many other meetups).  Meet nearby players and enjoy friendly competition.  Play old favorites and try out new ones. We can play and teach well known card games like Spades, Hearts, Euchre, Bid Whist, Pinochle, Cribbage, Big Two, and Tarot, as well as similar tile games like Mah-Jong and Dominos, but our house of cards offers many more games than just these!  Don't miss Tichu, D …

WHY I DECIDED TO START THE GROUP? A few months ago, my wife and I, along with a few friends went to Big Al's and got our bowling on.

We had such a great time, that I decided to start this group to get more Brothas and Sistahs together for fun, food and meeting other positive Brothas and Sistahs. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE GROUP? The purpose of the group is to get Brothas and Sistahs together for …

This group started as a taste testing group, but we have too many interests and too much A.D.D. to focus on just one thing. So "Random Events and Whatnot" was born!

Here are some of the activities we have hosted:   ·      Hiking ·      Storytelling ·      Taste Testing ·      Pot Luck Dinners ·      Glow in the Dark Night Frisbee ·      Book Club ·      Game Night ·      Movie Night/F …

We are excited to share this with the beautiful people of Portland. We will start with …

Are you an empty nester looking to meet new friends and start that next chapter in your life?  When my daughter moved on to college a couple of years ago I realized that most of my women friends were those I associated with at school functions, band functions, etc. and I no longer had as much contact with them now that our kids were off on their own.  So I decided to try and form a meetup group for women at a similar stage in life as myself to develop some new friendships.  I would like to sched …

I have created a more private meetup group with the people that I have developed friendships With from other meetup groups.  I started this meetup as a way to plan events and activities with our friends.
