Because physical activity reduces stress and tension, regular dancing gives an overall sense of well-being.     There are a few Hiking groups, a Running group, an Outdoor Sports group a …

Members are asked to contribute $5 every 6 months to cover the cost of Meetup and the miscellaneous items (IE: Murder Mystery …

Our quiz burns through nearly 70 multimedia questions in two exciting hours. The quizmaster gets to know the players, and smack talk flying around in all directions is pretty much par for the course.
