Greetings: This is a private group of women friends.  Sometimes we meet in each others homes, so for security and privacy for our members, we have our group setting set to private. We currently have about 30 women members (old broads).  You don't see that many here because right now we are still in the testing phase to see if this is a good tool for us. A message did go out from MeetUp announcing our group.  However our group is not ready to accept new members. But we hope to be ready for that i …

The "Environment" isn't just some remote wilderness. In addition to our surroundings, it is the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat. And by 'we' I mean all creatures. All living beings deserve to live and thrive in their chosen environment, be it a natural or urban landscape and community. An end to all forms of oppression that stifle both non-human and human animals is required to achieve this. This group endeavors to bring together like-minded individuals to these 'activist' ca …

Are you a fan of jazz music (or other niche genres) or  just curious to know what it's all about and why we "jazzers" are so dedicated to the art (or somewhere in between?)?

I had originally created this meetup to bring out what I (perhaps mistakenly) considered a lost generation of jazz listeners -- namely, my peers in their late 30's through mid 40's -- but have decided to leave my emotional baggage behind :-) an …
