Who says there has to be shame in being a nerd? Some of us may like Civil War era literature a little too much and Tivo Jeopardy!, but that doesn't mean we can't go out and have a good time. This group is for 20- and 30-somethings who are looking to meet fun, down-to-earth people their age who also happen to share some supposedly 'less than cool' interests. The type of events we do runs the gamut, from board game nights, pub quizzes and ice skating to lectures at the Aquarium of the Pacific and …

WELCOME to our "Happy Place" - and the LARGEST Disneyland Resort fan group here on Meetup.com! (=3 For most of us, the Disneyland Resort -- to include Downtown Disney, Disney's California Adventure (DCA), and the "Mouse House" itself -- may be considered our "home away from home", or simply a fun and safe gathering spot to unwind from the everyday chores of life, work and all-things hectic. Many of us feel comfortable in coming to "the happiest place on Earth" - either alone or (preferably …

Welcome THE FUN HAS JUST BEGUN You want to know why I decided to start this group because I was finding groups that would start off great, but then fizzle out. The reason I noticed, was that almost all the groups are way too specialized.  I wanted a young adult group where people meetup, make friends or more, exchange ideas and we do it.  So the point is do something either fun, exciting, wild, new, whatever. We aim to be active, outdoorsy, adventurous, and social. Whether it is , hiking excursi …

Here in the OC, our "Fast-Paced" & "Activity-Packed" lifestyle makes the command to "Love One Another" a challenge... am I right? Who has time to do everything that is expected of us: work, chores, church, school, kid's activities, personal & community responsibilities, etc… and still walk as Jesus did?  Was he wrong when Jesus said "My yoke is easy, my burden is light?" (Matt 11:30) I don't think so!! With a little conviction, some effort, and today's social media tools... we can turn "Challeng …
