Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 I signed up but have never attended a Meetup for folks in the DC metro area who are raw. Meetup.com generates an invitation automatically to folks with a common interest, in this case raw food, to meet at a specific time and location. As a member, you can select a location, time, and frequency of events, and members vote on the place they'd prefer. I believe three people have to vote to accept the time and location before the event gets scheduled and the meeting finalized. My problem with the whole thing is that I can't think of a very good restaurant or cafe for raw foodists to meet at. Everlasting Life and Whole Foods are the only possibilities I know about, and I'm not sure how attractive that would be for others. Washington Adventist Hospital cafeteria? In any event, Meetup is looking for an organizer to take charge of this group. Read more in the email below and go to the link if you're interested. I'd participate, but not lead, if someone else takes charge. Steve Dear Meetup member, There's a New Meetup.com. It's easier to use--and friendlier, too! See more at: http://www.meetup.com/new/ - If you've never had a Meetup before, now you can! - Meetups are more flexible. Now your Meetup Group can *decide locally where, when, and how often* you meet. - And now *anyone can start a local Meetup Group* about almost any cause or interest! *Your Raw Food Meetup Group DOES NOT YET HAVE AN ORGANIZER* Will you consider becoming the Group Organizer? You can always step down later, and it will take only a few extra minutes a month. To volunteer as Organizer, or learn more about what's involved, visit your Group's new home page: http://rawfood.meetup.com/55/ If no one steps forward, one more Meetup will be automatically scheduled. We hope you will use the opportunity to decide between you who should step up as Organizer. (Some of you may have noticed that your October Meetup was automatically cancelled. It has now been reinstated, and you can RSVP as normal.) *After that, the Group will no longer have Meetups until an Organizer is chosen.* http://rawfood.meetup.com/55/ You're a Founding Member of your Raw Food Meetup Group. Make it thrive! We hope you, your family, your friends, and your neighbors have great Meetups. Best regards, The team at Meetup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
