Setup like a book club, we select one movie and meet to watch and then discuss the film. We prefer a variety of new and old films; which means we will meet at movie theaters, private homes and special locations for screenings. The group meets at predetermined location for a particular film. Come to one or come to them all. There is no requirement to attend all meetings. Movies and views are diverse. It is always a great time to meet new people and to simply get to 'see' Portland in its finest. T …

I have been a long time book lover and recently have more time on my hands. I have always thought a book club sounded fun with girls who enjoy reading the same types of literature! I recently read Fifty Shades of Grey and couldn't put it down and thought it would be so much fun to get tougher with other ladies (probably between 21 and 35 age range-ish) who may have read this or similar stories (usually romance novels and chick lit type books) to laugh, gossip, drink coffee, wine, or whatever may …

Interested in the Civil War and/or the Old West? Like to read books related to the Civil War and/or the Old West? If so, check this group out!

We'll also schedule events to watch Civil War and Old West movies from time-to-time and to play some related board games.

Meetup has allowed us to make some amazing friends, learn more about the world and ourselves all while having a great time and we want to ensure that …

Are you an empty nester looking to meet new friends and start that next chapter in your life?  When my daughter moved on to college a couple of years ago I realized that most of my women friends were those I associated with at school functions, band functions, etc. and I no longer had as much contact with them now that our kids were off on their own.  So I decided to try and form a meetup group for women at a similar stage in life as myself to develop some new friendships.  I would like to sched …

I'd been searching for a group in or around Camas that did things that I love to do. I love reading, watching movies, eating great food and drinking wine. Pretty simple, right? As for food: I love everything...so dinners out is a definite. Wine: red or white is all right with me. Cabernet's are my fave! Movies: I'm a twi-hard (so sue me) but I loooove going to see a new movie with gal pals. Books: I have to admit, I'm a read-a-holic!!!! We'll have a monthly meetup to discuss a good book. We'll e …

Greetings: This is a private group of women friends.  Sometimes we meet in each others homes, so for security and privacy for our members, we have our group setting set to private. We currently have about 30 women members (old broads).  You don't see that many here because right now we are still in the testing phase to see if this is a good tool for us. A message did go out from MeetUp announcing our group.  However our group is not ready to accept new members. But we hope to be ready for that i …
