Are you a single parent who would like to have a single location for helpful and fun activities, resources, and information that is pertinent to YOUR life as a single parent? I am starting this group because there are lots of resources out there, but sometimes hard to find the ones that apply to us as single moms and dads, and we just don't have the time to go hunting for them. At our meetups we will be involved with simple fun events, but you will also have the opportunity to attend more ed …

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 …

Are you a smart, fun PDXer Gen Xer who could stand a few more parent-friends? Do you default on the side of alternative? Maybe even consider yourself, dare I say it, the cool mommy? And I mean cool in a knows all the words to every Patsy Cline AND every Minor Threat song kinda way, not in a Rose McGowan in Jawbreaker kinda way. I don't know if you have to be Gen X, but that sense of irony seems to be peculiar to our generation, so I thought I'd try and narrow it down this way. It's not about bei …

This is a group for both moms and their kiddos. Ages 3-8. Younger siblings are of course welcome! A group for the kiddos to get out there and get their social groove on!

This is a group for any parents in the St. Helens and surrounding areas who are looking for friendship,  support.... or just the chance to talk with another adult after spending all day (or evening, for the working parents) saying things like: "Don't touch that!" "Get your hands out of the toilet!" "Don't bite your brother!" "Don't color on the walls!" "Don't put that in your mouth!" Parenting is not for the faint of heart, and it helps to have friends to hang out with who can share in all the …

I'm lucky if I only work 40 hours and I think that I'm still a good mother though new at it!

Ever notice how there is NO gay neighborhood in Portland, OR? Also, there isn't a full time LESBIAN bar here anymore either. So my fellow lesbian friends and I thought it would be super smart to create a LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB. LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB: We'll pick a date, time and spot every month for lesbians to congregate. We've heard of this working before in other cities so we thought we'd try it here. Nothing formal just a suggestion..."Hey all the lesbians are hanging here tonight....and so on!"

This group is for single parents and their families that live in inner East Side Portland and want to get together and participate in activities with their kids. I know not all of us have an easy time getting out to adult meetups, so this group is focused primarily on activities that are geared towards the whole family. I would love to see it grow into a fun and supportive group.  I'm going to keep the group information only available to members in the group and will screen new members to be sur …
