This group has new organizers!  Instead of letting this group disappear, Jeff Bergen of the Elgin gaming store The Gaming Goat has stepped up to be the organizer of this group.  Since he also runs the store's Meetup group, he's leaving it to other gamers to manage it and maintain the meetups.    As such, we're going to try and open the group up to announce any public rpg gatherings in or around Elgin.  So, feel free to suggest new meetups to announce your own games, or update us on existing game …

We found that our life and social circle changed when we moved to the Chicago area and our children left home for college and to start their careers. We are starting this group to find new friends with similar interests who are also dealing with transition. The purpose of this group will be to promote social interaction and friendships through theater, dinning, barbecues, wine tastings, card/game nights, and other fun activities. This group will be made up of couples who believe in social justic …

Sometimes being a geek girl is a lonely experience. It's hard connect with other women when they're staring at you funny because you're trying to explain your theory that the nature of a child's mutation stems partially from genetics as seen in Polaris and Magneto, but mostly from some sort of trauma before puberty - the time in which most mutants first exhibit abilities. Ex: Nightcrawler wanted to disappear because of his demonic appearance, and he did. You flashed 'em a little bit of your geek …

Hello Lovelies! I created this group in hopes of finding some like-minded woman who want to build their network of girlfriends. I'm in my early 20s and would love to meet with other women in their 20s and early 30s. In college, I was in a small sorority that was a conglomerate of very different women (self proclaimed "non-sorority girls" lol) who made my life what it is. We went out to dinner, we had movie nights and played cards/board games, we argued about books/politics and sometimes we even …

… Instead, kids develop regular friendships through common activities, such as board games, painting, clay modeling, etc. The parents' group is designed to let parents share their experiences of parenting gender non-conforming children. We'll sometimes have guest speakers - therapists, gender-variant adult, school support, or camp counselors. On other occasions, we lead out own discussion on topics such as concerns about safety, frustrations about family members not "getting it," or our own sec …

… If someone wants to host other activities like a board game night, movie night, sports outing, discussion groups, a bowling event, playing tennis or golf, that is also fine. The cost to join this group is free. What we are looking for is for participation and people having a good time without spending a lot of gas and extra time on the road.

Hi!   We're not 100% sure if there are other established 20-somethings in the Glen Ellyn/Wheaton area so this may be an exercise in futility.  :)  Only one way to find out!   We're hoping there are some nice, normal 20-something/early-30something couples out there who'd love to get together and hang out without having to negotiate traffic & a train into Chicago. :)   We love to cook dinner, drink wine, drink wine while cooking dinner, do dog play-dates (we have a Shih Tzu!) play board games, see …
