This is a (private) and free group geared towards actual friendships for folks that identify as bisexual, lesbian, gay, transgender, etc, in Lake County since most groups are in Chicago and it's very hard to find groups up here. This group is also private to help protect members since Lake County is more conservative then folks realize. You are allowed to bring family and/or friends to our movies as long as you remain a member and they are open minded about our group and treat our members with t …

We are a 501(c)3, not-for-profit organization dedicated to the rescue and rehoming of mature dogs and cats age 5 years old and older. It all began with a group of people who loved animals. But in particular, the older animals. Dogs who had a little grey around the muzzle, but whose hearts were young and whose love knew no bounds. Cats who lounged around, pretending to be hard of hearing, until the whir of the can-opener proved otherwise. These animals had once been loved, cherished, and part o …

… - I tried to adjust the email settings for this group as best as I can so that once you join, you're not getting a ton of email reminders from this group. However, Meetup seems to send their own "auto" email reminders that I have no control over, (along with additional emails attached to other meetup groups that I'm not connected to), so you may get additional "auto" emails anyway. My apologies for this, but there's really nothing I can do since I get them too. - Remember, that Meetup is a bu …

This group is going to work best for those with a more flexible weekend schedule since I plan on scheduling a meetup for this group on at least one …

This group has new organizers!  Instead of letting this group disappear, Jeff Bergen of the Elgin gaming store The Gaming Goat has stepped up to be the organizer of this group.  Since he also runs the store's Meetup group, he's leaving it to other gamers to manage it and maintain the meetups.    As such, we're going to try and open the group up to announce any public rpg gatherings in or around Elgin.  So, feel free to suggest new meetups to announce your own games, or update us on existing game …
