I would also like to find members that would like to host their own event and be an Event-Hosts, to share whatever your passion is and for which I am not creating an event for.

Two examples, of an event I would like someone to run, for something which I do not do is HIKING and BIKING. So, if hiking or biking is your passion and you would like to have company when you Hike or Bike, then let me know that you would like to create an event to organize a walk or ride.

DISCLAIMER: Please be mindful of health and safety and participate only in activities that match your ability. And remember to bring whatever the event calls for, like water - for proper hydration, sunscreen, snacks, medications etc

Please remember to ACT RESPONSIBLY WHEN SIGNING and UP (And is signed up, then unRSVPing when deciding on not attending) FOR EVENTS. If you have signed up for an event and know beforehand that you cannot attend, if there is a waitlist, PLEASE UNDO YOUR RSVP, if not attending an event you signed up for, by changing your status to “NOT GOING,” which will open up your spot for someone else.
