This group has merged with Gen X/Y Social between the cities - please join our group on that meetup site instead.  Thanks! I have found it difficult to meet young people in their 30s and 40s along the Illinois/Wisconsin border. It seems that most groups in this area are under 40 or over 50 and forgot about the awesome kids who grew up in the 80 and 90s listening to grunge and alternative. Whether single, divorced, newly separated, or in a relationship, we often don't have enough time to find pe …

This is a group for people who like to play party games that promote fun, socializing, and laughing. Some examples would be Pictionary, Taboo, Outburst, Guesstures, Apples to Apples, etc. This really isn't a group for the serious, complex, strategic type games.

This is a group of people that get together each Tuesday night to get to know each other. We always eat dinner together. Every other week we play triva at a local bar or have a game night.

If you want to make friends, have fun, and look into the God thing (or pursue it more), we're the group for you.
