Calling all single seniors in N Cook, Lake counties in IL. and SE Wis. Anyone interested in meeting seniors for socializing and fun may like this meetup. Dinner and drinks, conversation and socializing for a few hours is our goal.

This is a group for single parents and their children, preferably in grades 4-8, who like to play party games (ex: Telestrations, Apples to Apples, Taboo, Guesstures, etc.). We will meet in different places, in the evening or during the day, depending on convenience and members' preferences. I think this will be a good group for single parents who want to do something fun with their kids, meet people in similar circumstances, and make new friends.

NW Suburban Kool Kidz is a group of singles and friends in their 20s, 30s and 40s, living in the NW suburbs.

Most of our events are held in the N and NW suburbs, but occasionally we venture to Chicago or The Land of Cheese.

I started this group since I didn’t see a meetup group for single dads specifically. Dads need a group to provide support and make new friends. I know I do. Let’s make this a group that actually meets up. We can just meet up at a local bar, someone’s house, doesn’t really matter to me. Maybe even plan an activity or two. I think it would be great to meet more people in a similar situation, and hopefully, you do, too. We could also have meetups with kids, but I view this as primarily a support gr …

State Line Dance The name of the group is derived from the fact that there is basically very little dancing offered between New Berlin / Waukesha WI to the north and the O’Hare airport area to the south. At 7000 sq. ft. - the facility, located just 4 miles north of the WI / IL border, is literally the oldest and largest ballroom in the States of Wisconsin and Illinois. It was built in the 1920s and was then known as the Twin Lakes ( the WI town in which it is located ) Ballroom. Most people reme …

This group will hopefully serve as an opportunity for those of us in the northern suburbs to make new friends and plan fun and unique social outings.
