If you’d like to join us for our upcoming events, here they are…

Socially Distanced Hiking at CVNP

Saturday, December 19

https://www.meetup.com/CLE20s30s/events/275154823/

Join Brandon, our newest event organizer, for hiking with a short option and a longer version. This is one of my favorite hikes in Northeast Ohio, and when people visit me from out of town, this is the hike that I take them on. If you’ve never been before, you should definitely go. This hike is strictly a 20s/30s group event and is not cross-posted with any other groups.

Movies & Television Themed Zoom Chat... Share What You've Been Watching - Sunday, December 20th - This event is cross-posted with other age groups
https://www.meetup.com/CLE20s30s/events/275221152/

Let's get together online and chat about your favorite movies and television shows that you've been watching recently.

NFL/Sports Themed Zoom Chat - Tuesday, December 22 - This event is cross-posted with other age groups
https://www.meetup.com/CLE20s30s/events/275202257/
Let’s get together online and talk about the Browns’ most recent game, college football’s conference championships, the past week in sports, and what games we’re looking forward to. If there is enough interest, I’ll try to do this one weekly.

We may do a Christmas day chat too, for anyone who can’t be with family that day. Anyways, if you’re feeling isolated and lonely due to 2020 being the worst, you can always join us for conversation or a hike.

See you soon!
David

Hello Cleveland!!!!

FEBRUARY 2020 MEET AND GREET

Our February Meet & Greet is next coming up Saturday, February 8th . These events have historically been our most popular events of the year with tons of fun new people to meet, so don't miss out. This one is in Lakewood, a popular location in a great area of the city. Here's the link to sign up... https://www.meetup.com/CLE20s30s/events/267944673/

Not everyone likes schmoozing and small-talk, so if you want to bring a board game or cards games or something more interactive, feel free to do so.

Eugene has stepped up to continue the tradition of 20s/30s Meet and Greets, which isn't an easy thing to plan, so be sure to thank him for his hard work.

Happy New Year, Northeast Ohio! We hope that amazing things happen for you in 2020.

NEW MEETUP GROUPS!

NEO 30s/40s
Here’s the link… https://www.meetup.com/NEO-30s-40s
The Cleveland 20s & 30s leadership has created a new group for those who are no longer in their 30s, or for those who just want a different type of environment. This group will be more strict about attendance, about bad behavior, and will try hard to create and environment where both men and women can enjoy interacting with one another without uncomfortable, unnecessary expectations from the opposite s*x. This is not a dating group. Singles and couples are welcome.

The Cleveland Podcast Network Meetup Group
Here’s the link…
https://www.meetup.com/TheClevelandPodcastNetwork/
The Cleveland 20s & 30s leadership has also started a new group about podcasts, podcasting, audio, video, music, art, etc… The event organizer (Derrick) does an amazing job of teaching audio and video, and he does it all for free. You can even just log into his courses from the comfort of your own home using your computer. His next course is this Mon, Jan 6 and he will teach you how to setup a podcast from start to finish. Here’s the link… https://www.meetup.com/TheClevelandPodcastNetwork/events/267427522/

The Cleveland Podcast... Check out www.theclevelandpodcast.com if you want to learn a little more about NEO and the city of Cleveland from a different perspective than most. Many of our organizers have been guests on the show including Alex, Meredith, Ariel, Jake, & Jacob.

INTEREST IN NEW ORGANIZERS: I have not done a very good job at keeping up with the people who have recently said that they were interested in becoming organizers. I have become very busy, so that means I need you to be a squeaky wheel if you are seriously interested in organizing. Speak up again if I haven’t followed up with you.

EMAIL NEWSLETTERS: As you may have noticed, we are no longer sending out a newsletter every week. Many of our organizers believed that it was redundant to do so, so we decided to message the group only when there are special messages… Like today!

EMAIL SETTINGS: Did you know that you could manage email settings for each individual Meetup Group that you are a member of? Here’s how… https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002879591-Editing-my-email-settings

MEMBERSHIP EXPECTATIONS
If you are new to the group, be sure to look over our rules for membership here… https://www.meetup.com/CLE20s30s/messages/boards/forum/22533228
Some basics include: don’t be creepy, don’t treat the group like a meat market, allow people to have space, don’t no-show, update your RSVP, etc…

Welcome! It’s a new year, and we hope that NEO 30s/40s will be an essential part of helping you to make the most out of it! Whether your goals are to experience new things, explore the city, meet new

Hey everyone! July was our 4th most highly attended month in the 11 years of the Cleveland 20s & 30s' existence. July also had the second most ever member joins in group history! This is all thanks to our amazing event organizers stepping up and making great things happen. Be sure to thank your organizer at your next event. They don't get paid for any of this, and it takes a special kind of person to be willing to do these things for free.
