I know I'm reaching...Any other dog trainers/sport dog owners looking to work together?

Again, I know this is very niche but I also wonder if there aren't more of "us" out there. We don't have purebred dogs so struggle to find acceptance within the sporting/training community but still want to find what makes your "mutt" work/click.

Active friends

Looking for more active friends who are into hiking/sports/running together occasionally or weekly. Always more fun to do things with others but kinda intimidated by joining large groups especially alone😭 I’m also interested in reading/book clubs and studying/learning.

Cribbage meetup at Malcolm Yards Market this Sunday 11/10, 2-5pm

For those arriving, I am wearing a green sweatshirt and beanie. I have a tall table with cribbage boards out on one end. Closest place to check is by the self-serve taps.

Anyone is welcome, regardless of experience level! If you’re curious to learn, it’s easy to pick up on.

The market is in NE over by Surly Brewing, close by a light rail station and plenty of parking if you drive. The space itself has food and drink options galore.

Feel free to show up and go any time, the timeframe in the title is when I’ll be around to host. Per usual, I’ll include an update in the post when I have found a table and where I can be found.

If you plan to come by, please drop a comment or message me so I can make sure I bring enough cards/boards. If you want to bring a board and/or cards please do!

See you all there!

BYO supplies. That being said, I do bring extra supplies, including a coloring book and a sticker book. So if you decide to pop in on a whim, you're covered.

Making Rope from Nettle Nov 9th

Ok maybe this is a little too out there, but figured I'd try in case there are other nature nerds out there and it'd be more fun to go with people.

Would anyone be interested in going to this event to learn to make rope from Nettle? It's a plant that can be foraged in MN.

12-2 on Saturday at Fort Snelling state park

MBP Boulderfest/Climbing

Hi all,

I'm a recent 21M transplant to Minneapolis from NYC. Haven't made much of a social circle yet so would love to meet some new people. Since moving here I've been getting really into bouldering and have been going to the Bouldering Project pretty regularly, and I was thinking about signing up for the recreational division of Boulderfest this weekend. The scale of the event seems a little intimidating to join solo however so if there's anyone here who would be down to come with me that'd be dope! Also outside of this weekend if anyone is looking for a climbing buddy to meet throughout the week I'd be very interested as well. Outside of climbing, I'm into playing guitar, seeing live music, video games, and checking out cool bars and restaurants. If anyone is interested feel free to comment or shoot me a dm!

Vegan Thanksgiving Weekend Dinner/Potluck - All are welcome!

Hi Everyone,

Please use this meetup link to sign up if you are interested: Thanksgiving Weekend Dinner/Potluck, Sat, Nov 30, 2024, 4:00 PM | Meetup

Let's have a vegan Thanksgiving dinner/potluck at my home in Champlin on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. All are welcome even if you are not vegan but are curious to try vegan food.

The event starts at 4pm and we'll start eating at 5pm. I will also have compostable to-go boxes so we can all bring home leftovers!

Please bring any vegan dish you would like to share. I will have cards so we can label if the dish contains gluten or any other allergens. Let me know if you need to use the stove, oven, or anything else. I'll need to know beforehand to ensure we don't have too many people trying to use them all at once.

I will provide the following dishes:

  • Seitan roast stuffed with leeks and shiitakes
  • Crockpot stuffing
  • Mashed potatoes with white bean, sausage, and sage gravy
  • NA champagne
  • Pumpkin/pecan cheesecake

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone!

Boardgames at...

This is where I normally post an open invite to play boardgames, but I will be staying home this Friday as there is a Magic the Gathering pre-release weekend and the game stores will not have space for anything but that.

What I will be doing instead is going to a weekly meetup hosted by Twin Cities Cardboard Crew, Thursday, November 7th at Blackstack Brewery at 6 pm. I do not run this event, so if you have questions about it you can join that public discord. This is their regular weekly meetup but they also do a bunch of other events like a monthly themed meetup and some of the regulars host occasional at home events.

Here's a link to that discord http://tc3.games/

Cribbage at Malcolm Yards Market this Sunday, 11/3 at 2pm

For those arriving today: I’ll be wearing an orange beanie and white hoodie. I have a table by the self serve drink area near the back and cribbage boards on the table.

Anyone is welcome, whether you’re a first timer or a longtime player!

We’re meeting at the same venue from last week - Malcolm Yards is about two blocks away from Surly and has parking. There’s a variety of food options and self-serve drinks (if you partake) with a large venue space inside.

I will bring a few boards + card decks. If you’ve never played before and are curious, you’re especially invited! The rules are simple and easy to pick up on.

This is by no means a formal event- show up and leave when you’d like; I’m planning to be around from 2-5.

See you all there!

Any good spots to socialize for young adults in the west metro? (Minnetonka, Plymouth, Maple Grove)

Im a transplant from the east coast. I moved to Minnesota a couple of years ago but have had difficulty trying to socialize or get acquainted with anyone. I live in the Plymouth area, so I am wondering if there is any good spots/events for young adults in their 20's to socialize or meet new people? does NOT have to be a bar. Just want to get involved and put myself out there.

23f want to be social but not into the bar scene (bonus if you’re a runner/triathlete!)

Hey everyone. I graduated from college this spring and am looking for some friends in the cities. While I do like the occasional night out and enjoy some brewery trivia, I’ve never been much for going out. I run and do triathlons competitively so I’d love to train together, but also love crafts, cooking, and just hanging out!

27M looking for new friends

Hey, everyone! I’m looking to meet new people and hang out. I moved here 3 years ago for work (I’m a software engineer). My interests and hobbies include: playing music (guitar, bass, drums, singing), tennis, anime, movies, video games, and running (recently got into it). I’m a bit introverted, but trying to get out of my comfort zone. So I’m down for pretty much anything. Shoot me a message if you’d be interested in getting to know each other!

Looking to add players for in person DnD group

I've got an open spot in a DnD 3rd edition game that I'm running in person at a local game store in the cities. There are a few people in the group that are new to DnD/new to 3rd edition so newcomers are welcome. We are all in our late 20s/ early 30s and are looking for people of a similar age range.

I have been playing for almost 20 years. I've been DMing for about 5 years, and have experience DMing a variety of systems, and teaching new players.

If you are interested or have any questions, feel free to comment or shoot me a message.

Boardgames at Roseville Dreamers Vault

This is an open invite to join me at Dreamers Vault in Roseville Friday, November 1st to play boardgames. I will arrive around 6pm and play 15-30 minute games with whoever is there. At 7pm we'll decide what longer games to play. You'll know me by my bald head, bushy beard, and Costco/Ikea bag of games. I usually get a table at the back on the left side of the gaming area.

I've seen a lot of "looking for friends" posts on this subreddit and that is what this is about. I make a point to bring both simpler "welcoming" games for people new to non-mass market games as well as more complex games for the veterans. The regular attendees tend to bring their own games as well so we always have a lot of choices (maybe too many sometimes).

If you've attended before and you'd like me to bring a specific game, let me know here and I'll make sure to put it in the bag.

24f looking for regular tennis buddy?

I played girls varsity in high school but haven't played for over 2 years now. I'm probably extremely rusty. I'm looking for someone, any age or gender, any skill level, who wants to play on a regular basis -- maybe twice a month? Saturday mornings maybe? As long as you can tolerate me, I'm happy playing you. I prefer just rallying and having fun rather than competition. Ramsey County but willing to travel ~20 min.

Guitar lessons?

As much as I hate to admit it I’m not cut out for self-teaching. Anyone know any good people or places to hit up in near the Burnsville area?

Cribbage Club this Sunday 10/27, 2-5pm at Malcolm Yards Market

Thanks everyone that went, it was an absolute blast!

UPDATE I yoinked a high table inside by the back patio entrance next to the self-serve taps. I have some boards placed out at the end of the table and am wearing a green sweatshirt and beanie!

Seeing that there's not really any existing cribbage group on here and the recent post full of people that want to play, I'd like to organize an ideally weekly cribbage meetup!

I'm planning to bring several boards with cards, but of course anyone is welcome to bring their own. If you've never played before, it's a fairly quick game to pick up on and I'll be more than happy to teach you - it's an absolute staple of the midwest!

Malcolm Yards Market is over in NE Minneapolis right by Surly Brewing - it's a fairly middle location between the cities, has a large venue, and plenty of food and drinks.

I'll update this post with more details the day before, but please comment if you're interested in coming as well as if you're bringing a board so I can plan accordingly! See you all then!

Wobbleween on Saturday

I'm a bit new in Minnesota, and I’m going to a rave concert for the first time this Saturday. It will be at The Armory, and I’m going on Saturday. I don’t want to be awkward, as I don’t know much about the culture here. Do you think I should wear a costume, or is this not going to be a Halloween-themed rave party?

Looking for long term friends around age 30

I’m (29F) looking to make friends here in the twin cities. I moved here about a year ago. I recently finished my master’s in mental health. Now that I’m done with it, I would really like to start going out with friends. I really enjoy breweries. I’ll only have 1 or 2 beers & may bring my dog along. Saturday & Sunday afternoons/evenings work best for me. My hobbies are pretty independent, so I’m just looking for people to talk to & hang out with. I enjoy talking about controversial things and philosophy. Bonus points if you have a good sense of humor. DM me if you’re interested in meeting up :)
