CHICAGO HIKING, OUTDOORS, & SOCIAL GROUP

Yesterday morning, I joined a 'Meetup Group.'


I joined the Chicago Hiking, Outdoors, & Social Group.  I saw that there was going to be an informal hike at the SAND RIDGE NATURE CENTER just 30 minutes from my home at 1:30PM in the afternoon.  I scooted over there and joined an informal group of nearly 80 hikers. The group spanned all ages, all levels and all genders. When the hike was over, I had logged four miles. This group has different hikes all around Chicagoland and surrounding states (Indiana, Wisconsin) which are held year-round. I am sure that I will join these folks again some time in the future.

After I returned home from my visit to Sand Ridge, there was some quick downtime, there was dinner and then I was back into my hiking boots to walk to the Lane Tech's Football Stadium for the football  Payton-Lincoln Park game where my daughter would officially be a cheerleader for the first time.  Our team, Payton, lost 42-36 in a game that was not decided until the clock ran out.


My first experience being the father of a cheerleader.

MEETUP from wikipedia

Meetup is an online social networking portal that facilitates offline group meetings in various localities around the world. Meetup allows members to find and join groups unified by a common interest, such as politics, books, games, movies, health, pets,careers or hobbies. Meetup, Inc. is based in New York City. It was co-founded in 2002 by Scott Heiferman and Matt Meeker. Meetup was designed as a way for organizers to manage the many functions associated with in-person meetings and for individuals to find groups that fit their interests.
Users enter their city or their postal code and tag the topic they want to meet about. The website/app helps them locate a group to arrange a place and time to meet. Topic listings are also available for users who only enter a location.
The service is free of charge to individuals who log in as members. They have the ability to join different groups as defined by the rules of the individual groups themselves.
