Ever wanted to learn how to kiteboard? Imagine the weightless feeling of soaring through the air, landing softly on the water and cruising. It's not that hard! It just takes practice. Anyone of any age with any body type can do it. A general level of fitness, not brawn, is what it takes. If you can run a mile, you can do this. In this meetup we will: *Meet other active, funloving people who want to try kiteboarding *Experience the thrill of flying power kites during Kite Nights *Learn the best w …

Hi there! I want to start a book club that focuses on non-fiction reads -- mostly what I tend to read are books about health and wellness, travel, animals, biographies, business, and in general, real things. I feel like I am alone out there, because every other book club I see is totally based on reading novels and other works of fiction. Unfortunately, it is rare for me to really enjoy a novel! I would love to see if other people in the area are interested in reading about the "real" stuff and …

I have been picking tree mushrooms for the past 50 years. My parents would take us out for a family day searching the maple-treed back roads of New England for Oyster Mushrooms. Over the years I've expanded my search to Clustered Coral, Hen of the Woods and Chicken Mushrooms. This Meetup group is for the mushroom lover that wants to expand their edible fungi repertoire, go out for a mushroom hunt or two, exchange photos of prized catches, and maybe cook up a tasty dish for a group gathering. I …

The North Shore Stargazers is a meetup geared towards those with a love of the night sky. No previous knowledge or experience in astronomy is required. And you especially do not need to own a telescope to participate! We usually view the heavens through my 12" reflector telescope. It provides spectacular views of the Moon's surface, cloud belts encircling Jupiter, the rings of Saturn, galaxies and star clusters. We observe from two sites: the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary in Topsfield and Hal …

Founded in 2004, A3D (African Development through Drum and Dance) started with a group of friends who traveled to Senegal, West Africa on a two week journey that forever changed their lives. After experiencing the sights and sounds of Africa, it became clear that many of the things we take for granted, most of the people there either never had or need more of, but will likely not be able to achieve without help from outside. Some of those things include medicines, school computers, and much mo …

The group is for outdoor photographers to share their experiences and techniques. If you own a DSLR and would like to begin using the capabilities or would like to advance your skills and meet like minded people, then this group will be beneficial. Since we are outdoor photographers, our meetups will be planned outdoors. This way you can try out whatever you learn.

This is designed for locals and new comers to Boston ages between 21-40, that want to have a good time in a unique and clean way.

Come to our events, or help us to come up with more ideas.

You want to be able to say you are adventurous but don't find yourself actually doing anything adventurous? Then this group is for you. I love trying new adventures but who wants to buy all the equipment they sometimes require? And the planning....the trying to convince your friends to go with you....the ease of being able to chicken out when it's just you....the regret of missed opportunities....it can all just be too hard. So, this group will organize it for you - the adventure, the equipment …

It doesn't matter if you're a beginner or seasoned pro, shooting with a one-time use camera or a high end digital, this group is all about getting out, having fun, and taking some great photos with people that share the same interests and passions about photography. We will not only visit the well-known location for photography, but hopefully we will visit locations that you would not think of as being photogenic, or places that you did not even know existed, or places that you would not even th …

We are a group of over 40 singles that want to recapture the great old days of dancing and romance while creating exciting new days, meeting new friends and maybe one soulmate, on or off the dance floor. Whether you are a Meetup member or not, if you're over 40 and single (single couples also) you are invited to the party. I would like to know which area you'd like to see a North of 40 dance held. Marblehead is hard for many people to get to and not close to a major highway. Many of our member …

We are the older generation of nerds and geeks. In the Boston area we fueled the Massachusetts Miracle on 128, and we're aging out. Some of us have put on thirty-five or forty years of Boskones -- the annual family reunion. And some of us go to Readercon...and Arisia...and Lunacon...and Disclave...and Balticon...seems like every weekend could be a con or three these days! But it's expensive and a lot of logistics and some of us don't travel as easily as we used to. We're slowing down. Some of us …

You’re in your 30’s or 40’s with a great career, maybe an advanced degree or two, but don’t have unlimited time to meet new people on a regular basis to date. You have the flexibility and stability to do some really cool things when you aren’t working but are missing someone to go with you. You work for a company that is known by just letters, an engineering firm, a software start up, a biotech company or something similar and would like to meet a person that understands the demands of your job …

This group welcome those who have experienced spiritual transformation and are seeking to share with others with similar experiences, connect and discuss, and further the spiritual journey. The beginning focus is to provide a space to share what happens, as this is often a path less traveled or understood by others. Once we form a core group, the next goal is to share information and help one another to further the journey.
