New to town? Too much free time on your hands? Like to read? Like to be social? This group is somewhat of a mishmash, but the idea is to have monthly book club meetings as well as social events. There aren't really any kind of general purpose meetup groups in Eugene, so in addition to book discussions I'd like to also be a bit more of a general purpose social group for those new to town or looking to get out and meet people. We try to do a wide range of events to accomodate varying interests. …

There are introvert meetups all across the country. Let's have one in our community, which is rich in fascinating and unique introverts. Being an introvert in a largely extroverted world is tough! You'd like to meet others like yourself, but we're all busy reading a good book, watching a good movie, spending time in the woods, running, biking, doing art, often times by ourselves or with just one or a couple of other good friends. We live in a world where extroversion seems to be the norm. Introv …

The Gift Economy is a powerful way for us to give and receive to each other freely that means less dependence on money, more opportunities to give our most precious gifts and skills, and the ability to get what we need without worrying about whether we can pay for it. Also it gives us a way to make the exchanges of our life about caring and relationship rather than the neutrality of money. At the Eugene Gift Circle we meet to share what we have to give and receive with one another, and set up t …

I know, cheesy name right? Well I figured it would draw some attention. I'd like to welcome the shy, the nerdy, gamers of any sort, to this group. I'm hoping to get folks together who share my interests, as I've had trouble finding such people on my own. I figure this group can be for a variety of things, mostly nerdy, some not as much. A few examples are gaming, movies, outings to the mall or other venues, bowling, hanging out, anything that interests folks really.

Absence of religion does not mean absence of humanity, the basic need for connection, the search for community. Join us weekly for a drink without having to tread lightly. I am not interested in Atheism Plus, but it's the hope of this group to draw some of our minority, women, and LGBTQ atheist folks out in the open for discussion, laughter, and sharing.

If you were born between 1946 and 1964, you know you're a "Boomer," whether you care for the label or not. As Boomers, this Meetup group will probably not stray far from our cultural image as described by these adjectives: idealistic (or at least we were when we were young); liberal-leaning and likely Democratic or Independent as voters; educated (with a college degree--and for some of you overachievers--graduate degrees); fond of good conversation, music, the arts, the sciences, food, wine/beer …
