 This group is about making friends over a good bottle of wine and (hopefully) a great book. We will pick a book each month and meet to discuss the likes, loves, and dislikes. Would like to branch out to other adventures once this meetup starts to help foster friendships. All are welcome.  

We are a casual 20 something Co-ed book club meeting once a month over drinks/food to discuss books at cool spots around the city! Nothing too serious. If you have been wanting to pick up a book, socialize and meet new people. This is the "club" you want to join.

Lets come together, get to know one another and have fun! Started because everyone I know is coupled up and/or just not interested in going out.  Events include things like paintballing, hitting up fun bars, a book club, going out dancing at different spots, visiting a casino, meditation, taking in a drag show, having a craft night, game night, visiting a race track, etc. Anything goes really, as long as the company is good and the drinks flow it should be fun ;) Ideally, members ranging from mi …

Let's play games!  Board games (the old ones; Scrabble, Monopoly, Sorry, etc.) card games, and whatever.  Just going out to have fun and maybe a little dinner and spirits.   We'll mainly meet either on Tuesday nights at Rockwell's Neighborhood Grill, or Monday nights at Bowman's Tavern & Grill.  We're also open to suggestions.

Meetup meets Groupon/daily deals, but better. What’s better then great food at nice restaurants? How about enjoying it while meeting new people. What’s even better then that? How about saving 30% to 50% at the restaurants while doing all this. This group is first and foremost about discovering new restaurants and food, meeting new friends, and enjoying an evening in a fun and casual way. But why not also save money while doing it. We take the best of Meetup and married with the deal phenomenon b …

Speed-dating can be expensive. The entry price alone is around $35 to $40, and then you have the drinks and transportation... This would all be fine if you felt pretty sure you were going to meet your one-and-only that night, but often you simply need to go a few times to come across the person that's right for you. Don't get us wrong - we're huge fans of speed-dating. We think it way better than online dating, as you can not beat a quick face-to-face encounter to establish if the chemistry is …

Hi!   We're not 100% sure if there are other established 20-somethings in the Glen Ellyn/Wheaton area so this may be an exercise in futility.  :)  Only one way to find out!   We're hoping there are some nice, normal 20-something/early-30something couples out there who'd love to get together and hang out without having to negotiate traffic & a train into Chicago. :)   We love to cook dinner, drink wine, drink wine while cooking dinner, do dog play-dates (we have a Shih Tzu!) play board games, see …
