I'm thrilled to post that this week there have been several great Meetup Groups in the news!
In St. Paul, the Single Parents Friends Network made the local news for being a great way for single parents in the Twin Cities to get together.
Some of the Group's Meetups are family events, where one-parent families can all come together. Other Meetups are for parents-only, so solo parents can chat and connect with one another through some rare kid-free conversation.
Thanks to Valerie for the heads up on that one!
Down in Florida, Felina and the Tallahassee Singles Mingle Meetup Group caught the eye of a reporter from the Tallahassee Democrat. Felina's the Organizer for the Meeutp, and she had some great advice on how best to meet that special someone:
As for the best way to meet a mate? Martin says it is about staying active. "If a man comes along while I'm at poetry night, so be it. I do things. What better way to meet them?"
And finally, the Sacramento Press began running a 'New Girl' column, where Susan (a self described 'Silicon Valley escapee') writes about how joining the Sacramento TrailMix hiking Meetup helped her find her place in a new community.
I especially loved her closing line, about how Meetup has helped her out:
The cats are nice but not very talkative (unless it's dinnertime), so I have been looking for ways to connect with the rest of the universe. And I found it.
Congratulations to all three of these fantastic Meetups for the recognition!
