I just moved to Salem (from the South Shore) in November. I thought it would be nice to get together with others who have recently relocated here so we can discover all the North Shore has to offer together. I am open to any type of activities the group shows interest in. I enjoy socializing (dining, drinks & apps), outdoor activities (hiking, beaches, bicycling), movies, plays, sporting events, and more. I just hope to provide a way for myself and others to meet some new friends to do these thi …

We love everything technology (old or new), are willing to wait in line to see the new Burton, Cameron, Jackson, Scott, or Spielberg  flick on opening night (with no shame for smuggling in snacks from the grocery store) and love role-playing in whatever form it takes: pen and paper, live-action or online. We have clothing (not costumes) in our closet that would fit well in the 16th century or the 23rd century. We can master any interest that piques our curiosity, whether it be making crème brule …

I have been picking tree mushrooms for the past 50 years. My parents would take us out for a family day searching the maple-treed back roads of New England for Oyster Mushrooms. Over the years I've expanded my search to Clustered Coral, Hen of the Woods and Chicken Mushrooms. This Meetup group is for the mushroom lover that wants to expand their edible fungi repertoire, go out for a mushroom hunt or two, exchange photos of prized catches, and maybe cook up a tasty dish for a group gathering. I …

Massachusetts Men's Gathering (MMG) is a participant-organized and participant-led weekend that happens twice a year at a year-round camp/ retreat center. Like similar format retreats throughout New England and in several other states, MMG does not hire "experts" to run workshops or provide the entertainment, but trusts in the abilities of whoever shows up! The MMG Organizing Committee (OC) plans and sustains the framework for the spring and fall weekends, but not the content. Each participant b …

Founded in 2004, A3D (African Development through Drum and Dance) started with a group of friends who traveled to Senegal, West Africa on a two week journey that forever changed their lives. After experiencing the sights and sounds of Africa, it became clear that many of the things we take for granted, most of the people there either never had or need more of, but will likely not be able to achieve without help from outside. Some of those things include medicines, school computers, and much mo …

We will meet periodically, monthly or bi-monthly, at the local coffee shop to talk about topics relating to Contemporary Shamanism. Everyone is welcome. I'd love to share this quotation abut beauty and the shaman: "The shaman knows that the soul’s urge toward beauty is not about perfect symmetry and mainstream approval. It is not about opening doors in business, or snagging the right mate, or fitting i …

Get together with other atheists on the North Shore for various social and recreational outings without having to travel into Boston!

It's really for people who have already done the research and concluded that the existence of deities is just like the existence of fairies...no …
