We know you're out there! This is a group for socializing, eating, business networking, informal discussion, walking, field trips to gay events, and of course, more eating - in the East Bay. We have all been to events in the city - what we are attempting to do is to create a social group closer to home - out here in the 'burbs.

This group is, in fact, closed at the moment. Book discussions are best with 10-15 people, so we need to cap the number of members in the group.

No shows are not nice :( You ar …

I am an interspiritual minister who strongly believes that the right to define and restrict the officiating of same gender marriage does not belong to state or federal lawmakers, nor to the majority rule of any group of persons. The privilege and honor to officiate same gender weddings is a right and duty of the clergy as servants of God. I am seeking like-minded clergy of all faith traditions to meetup and share ideas about how we can support the LGBT community in moving forward with their marr …

Let's break away from the bars (and, okay, sometimes also go to bars) and have some real fun.  ALL 20-something queer-identified folk (and their friends) are enthusiastically welcomed.  My hope is to develop a sense of community through recurring events.  Some ideas for events include potlucks, game nights, movies, hikes, club nights, and happy hours.  If you have any ideas, please suggest them!  Activities take place mainly in Oakland, and sometimes in Berkeley and San Francisco.

I think it is important that we keep our Dynamic …

December 22, 2012 Today was the day to bring lesbians together of all ages who would like to go to dinners, movies, walks, breakfast, start a book group, picnics, good Theater, or classical music and even the opera. As I was perusing the various groups I clearly noticed, that lesbians of all ages were left out of the picture. Hey, I know I'm still active and I bet all of you are too. No point counting the years when the fun will go away, let's enjoy these years to the fullest and get back into l …

"I used to be a runner and I miss it." "I have always thought I would like to be a runner." "I am a walker, but I would like to make the transition to running." If any of these statements fit you or you are just tired of being the slowest person in your running group, this group is for you! My intention is to create a fun, non-competitive environment where new, tentative, and slow runners can feel comfortable to enjoy running in beautiful surroundings with supportive friends.

It's almost summer and it's time to get outside and play some volleyball and meet some new Oakland people. All-inclusive LGBTA and queer and questioning group for casual, fun non-competitive volleyball. But just because it's non-competitive doesn't mean that if you're a more seasoned player you can't join in too. This league is open to all ability levels and people looking to expand their social circle and enjoy something active outside.
