=============Where to meet==============

We're meeting at Central Park's upper pond, at the picnic benches near the horseshoe toss pavilion. If you are coming by car, there are plenty of parking near the central park outdoor pool. Look for a meetup banner tied to the tree. (look at the map)

If you are new to the group do give a shout and let us give you a warm "YVR Communities welcome".

===========Past Events============

Since 2012, Vancouver has been known to be the loneliest city in the world. The lockdowns and social distancing have made it worse. We are on a mission to bring people together and make the city a more connected place. Working with local meetup groups and other grassroots communities, our community of volunteers have put on get together/minglers in the past including:

  • Leap year party

  • Thanksgiving potluck (with neighbors and new friends)

  • Spring time Mix and Mingler (I survived the lockdown restrictions party)

  • Halloween party

  • More to come

===========Disclaimer=================

This is a group organized by volunteers. It is not a professional organization. The organizers are not in any way responsible for any participant at the event. You are responsible for yourself and your own safety, what you eat or drink. However, as a group of friends, we will keep an eye on each other.
