The walks are usually scheduled within Kane County Forest Preserves, parks an …

What happened to us??!! If your like me, your single or divorced, busy with a full time job, and with commitments at home which don't allow you much time for yourself. I find myself spending way too much energy on the daily grind instead on having fun, staying active, and investing some time in myself. I  started a new Meetup for those of us in our 30's and 40's who find themselves single and looking for an opportunity to meet new people, start new friendships, and get out and have some fun. It …

Grab your shoes, a bottle of water, and let's get a move on! This group is for 30 somethings in the Naperville area who are on the lookout for fun and active things to do in the area. While going out for dinner, drinks, and movies is fun (and likely to show up on the group calendar every now and then), the main purpose of this group is to get people off the couch and outside doing something active! Meetups include walking/jogging on the riverwalk, bike riding, hiking, kayaking, tennis, etc in …

If you are seeker of the truth, working to reach the self realization of your internal real being, looking to develop the latent powers of your divine and human soul and better comprehend the unlimited mysteries of nature, if you are thirsty for the wisdom that illuminated the minds and warmed the hearts of many sages and saints through the ages... then this meetup group may be for you. Although the spiritual path must be walked individually by each one of us, in our way we enjoy the company of …

Nature Trail Runners is a casual running club that hosts group runs in Montgomery, Oswego, Aurora and Naperville. We aim to take advantage of the many scenic bike paths and trails the area has to offer. We also host social events so we can all hang out and relax after those tough runs! I started this club because I was unable to find one near where I live. There are wonderful running clubs for Bolingbrook, St. Charles, Downers Grove, and many other surrounding cities, but none for the large city …

A cultural, intellectual community based on rationality. Meet up for a walk, a drink, to dance, etc... Civil behavior is required, truly creative actions are lauded, criticism is constructive and restrained.  Activities will typically be free to join, the hope is to get enough people to start organizing low intensity group games outside for spring. Anyone for a lovely day of croquet?  let's organize this and make it a BBQ.  Let's bring music!

Let's face it...our military men and women have fought hard to keep our country free and our values intact. They deserve to have a group where they can find support and resources from others that have walked in their shoes. And they are not the only ones that have served. Families who have/had loved ones serve are also in need of a support network. Military Minded Chicagoland (MMC) is a group started by veterans that wishes to position itself as a resource for veterans, military personnel and fa …

This group is for dads and their kids in the Wheaton area to get together for play time, walks, museum visits, to commiserate, you get the gist. I've started it on behalf of my brother, who is a full-time stay at home dad with a 2 and a half year old little girl, since there didn't seem to be any local dad groups, but tons of mom groups. That said, moms are welcome, too! Members are more than welcome to suggest new activities, so let's get this group rolling!

Let's get out walking 3 or 4 times weekly. Let's walk or hike different venues. This is a group for women only who are interested in walking for exercise to improve our health. Any recipes and/or health tips more than welcome.
