I want to create a group that is pretty local to Brooklyn where a group of mid 20 to mid 30 somethings can get together pretty regularly and share food, drink, laughs and our lives. I'm new to Brooklyn and have already heard of fun not mainstream vegan places and would love if a group of people new to Brooklyn could get together with seasoned Brooklyn vegans and share what makes this such an amazing place to live! Ideally, drinks or a dinner (either at a local vegan spot or a potluck at one of o …

This is a group based on two main themes- to meet new women (lesbian/bi) and to have some fun. We will have dinner/brunch, go to the movies, theater, potlucks, board game gatherings...anything but the bar scene. Join us if you just want to have a good time with a nice group of women. It's not a group focused on finding a date, but you never know. You have to be in it to win it - meaning don't stay home, take a chance...at the very least you'll have some fun. I'm hoping this will be a group where …

I am taking over this meetup since the former organizer is not doing it any more. I am definitely open to adding co-organizers, so please let me know if you want to do that. And/or if you can host an event at your place or a venue that you know and like. I am asking for $1 from everyone when they come to a meetup event to help with the cost of having this meetup site - it's $12/month so 2 meetups per month with 6 people at each should do it. I am not trying to make $ but don't really want to cov …
