Have you seen "I Love You, Man"? Kinda like that. Your founder realized that at 40, he had pretty much given up on having guy friends and found himself sitting with "the girls" way too often. Not a gay group - just dudes looking to get out a bit more, and do more than drink & watch sports. Married or not, kids or not - you just need some male bonding. Also - gay dudes welcome - it's just not a dating group. I've always wanted a poker group, but don't play poker. A drum circle without the hippies …

Back by popular demand... First, thanks for taking the first step in joining a special group of ladies who love to read, chat, over enjoy a glass of wine. I initially started this group two years ago because I am a book junkie who was looking to join a book club in the area and found none. After a year on Facebook, I decided it was time to take the group back were it all started. We read mostly contemporary lit, but do mix it up every so often with a classic. This is the book club for anyone who …

We are the Oakland Ping Pong Party! Our local events, held at various wonderful Oakland venues, are all about community, contentment and play. In the middle of each of our parties is a ping-pong table and a game of Berlin-style ping-pong* — a communal game where dozens can play at once and skill is optional. Surrounding the pong action: good food, tasty drinks, euphoric music, great people. We love ping-pong, we love Oakland (and the wider Bay Area), we love partnering with great community gathe …

This is a group for 20s and 30s in the east bay interested in adding some weekly runs and geting together with people their own age. All running levels are welcome. I started this group to meet other runners who are interested in meeting at a local bar, going on a run and then grabbing a drink after or meeting up on a Saturday for a long run and grabbing breakfast. There are so many running groups in SF and Berkeley areas that I can't make because of location and timing that I thought it might b …

“Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.” ― Aristotle This is a group for young, social, passionate, (enter your own adjective), teachers/school counselors/school psychologists living in the East Bay. I started this group to meet others in this amazing profession and so my non teacher friends don't have to hear me talking about teaching all the time. The objective (<------anyone else getting t …

Hi there fellow 40-somethings, I created this group when I first moved to Marin County from Southern California and it was a great way to make friends. Now I'm in Berkeley and wanted to start one here. The name of the group speaks for itself, I don't stick with a theme of books to read; one month we may read a mystery, another month a classic, the next...well, you get the idea! We'll have one scheduled book club meeting each month and I'll also schedule meetups in between to attend a literature …
