Welcome to Peninsula Rec & Leisure! By joining this up-and-coming group YOU get to decide how this group will mold into a fantastically fun experience for all! For now, the group will focus on hidden Happy Hours tucked in and around the peninsula. I’m a huge advocate for finding new uncharted locations for food and drink! Why? Because some of the best (and worst) places I’ve ever been to, have been off the beaten path…..and each one provides a memorable story! Why settle for what you know when y …

This is a movement of exceptional young professionals and college students helping others both locally and internationally

Are you tired of trying to find the right place to meet mature (48-65 ish), eligible single folks?  I am.  Bars send the wrong message; singles events are mainly about dancing and loud music with no opportunity to actually get to know folks; dating websites are expensive or just not very helpful and some other meetup groups seem to more like a singles "meat market", only for young folks, or they are non-singles events. I have started this group because I love going out to dinner and socializing …

We are a group of single professionals who love to have fun!

Many of us baby boomers have managed to gain a measure of true independence at this phase of our lives. We are therefore no longer tethered to a corporate job as such. Instead, we get to focus on reinventing ourselves by pursuing interests, hobbies and even dreams we did not quite have time for when we were part of the daily-commute crowd. For me, this means developing for the Kinect platform (and, in the process, falling in love with C# despite my earlier prejudices!), designing an animation pl …
