Meet other out-of-shape local hiking enthusiasts in this dog-and-family-friendly group. We'll set a slower pace, and start with easier, shorter hikes. Please note: I mean HIKES not walks down nature paths. :) There may be some walks down nature paths, but please be prepared to do real-life hiking. I'm unabashedly completely and totally overweight and out of shape, and I want to do something about it. If you do too, then let's start slow! If you aren't interested in pushing yourself just that lit …

LIFE IS TOO SHORT NOT TO HAVE A LITTLE UMBRELLA IN YOUR DRINK. This is a group for women in their 40's and 50's, to make new girlfriends for socializing, support, fun, shopping, or almost anything else.

This is a Landscape Photography meetup group. We are after more than just snap shots and find the best time for getting that great shot and being away from the crowds is to go mid-week.

All levels and abilities of photographers are welcome. Learning landscape photography, exploring great locations, getting that great shot and good company …

This group was started in the Seattle area and will remain centered around the Seattle area for the time being, until it grows to a point where a majority of it members would be better served by either moving it or splitting into a second meetup group. Knowing that the government will never be your source for safety, protection and emergency supplies is the first step. Zombie outbreaks (a metaphor for an emergency or disaster and those that are unprepared) are to be expected in the upcoming ye …

Welcome to the Midweek Hiking Meetup Group. As the name implies, hikes will be offered only on weekdays, never on Saturdays or Sundays.  If you are retired (like me), have some weekdays off, or just get sick a lot on sunny work days, then this is the group for you. I will concentrate on day-hikes in the Cascade Mountains along the I-90 corridor and also Mt. Rainier.  These areas are way too crowded on weekends and are best enjoyed in the relative peace and quiet of a weekday. Most hikes will be …

We are a group of ladies (and occasionally some gents) that are on a journey of health. We started as a beginner 5k running group in the summer of 2011. The group went so well that we started meeting every Sunday morning rain or shine to jog, climb stairs, do push-ups, etc. As the weather gets nicer we have decided to create this meet-up group so that we can meet more often and with more people! You don't have to be in great shape to be a part of this dynamic group. We just love to get out and g …

This group is intended to be a place where anyone can come and develop their awareness. We will build a group that meets to practice expanding their senses, exploring para-psychological abilities, and trusting our intuitive signals. The exercises I will bring are drawn from my experience in wilderness survival schools and native traditions, martial arts/dance/body awareness, and meditation. We will be meeting outdoors, and there will be some physicality involved, but that is minimal and our focu …

Calling all walkers and hikers who would enjoy company and camaraderie. Our group has proven to be a good place for those who enjoy walking and moderate hiking with conversation and conviviality. Our group does not have a target as to age, relationship status, or fitness level. We typically schedule events during the work day so many of our members have flexible work schedules or do not have jobs. We will probably be scheduling more week-end events during the summer months. We are not a "single …

This is a group for parents and their 3-4 year olds to get together and have fun! I started this group for children and parents to be able to socialize and have fun with others! We can do a wide range of things, from meeting at fun parks or going together on short field trips, such as to a museum, a short hike, or to a farm. I am simply interested in fun interaction between the parents and great socialization between the kids at places that are somewhat affordable. We look forward to meeting new …

We don’t let the world run us; we harness it to a variety of goals. We use our involvement with endurance sport to celebrate life. It’s not just exercise; it’s a life style. I’m extending this invitation for Sammamish Multisport to anyone involved in multisport or want to explore it (you don’t even have to be a triathlete or plan to be one!). Here in the Pacific Northwest, there are up to 18 hours of daylight at the longest stretch and even more activities than I ever had growing up. So I’m exci …
