Ever notice how there is NO gay neighborhood in Portland, OR? Also, there isn't a full time LESBIAN bar here anymore either. So my fellow lesbian friends and I thought it would be super smart to create a LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB. LESBIAN SOCIAL CLUB: We'll pick a date, time and spot every month for lesbians to congregate. We've heard of this working before in other cities so we thought we'd try it here. Nothing formal just a suggestion..."Hey all the lesbians are hanging here tonight....and so on!"

In August of 2012, I set out to expand into the great Pacific Northwest, settling in Portland, OR. With me I brought my many experiences of what Meetups should be, based on my experiences before. I came with the great experiences from MBB's Original Chapter. We started once as a floating 'bachelor party' and turned into an education into the finer things in life - high quality food and beverages, wild nights of risque events, themed parties, music of an eclectic nature, and all that the city giv …
