My Goal: Spread the word, educate and raise funds for horse rescue. Special interest: getting together with people who love horses and getting some fundraising events going in 2010. A little bit about Blue Horse Design .... Blue Horse Design started off on the kitchen table with a sketch pad, pencil, pen or whatever else was handy at the time. Many a utility bill has been mailed with pretty, or not so pretty, renditions of abstract horses bordering the amount due. Always practicing and always …

Meet other local fans of jazz & blues music, and see new jazz & blues musicians before they get famous!

This group is here because 1) I love jazz and 2) the music is always better in person because you can feel how much the musicians become absorbed into the music. But whenever I ask my friends to check out a live jazz concert or show the answer is always lukewarm at best. It can't be that the 30 and under group is just not into jazz because I know there are so many young musicians in jazz bands all over the Bay Area. So here's a chance for all young jazz lovers to gather and check out all the gre …

I am looking people over 50 (preferably in the East Bay) who would like to get together to expand their social network, and are interested in engaging in various types of activities such as dining, concerts (especially jazz, classical, folk, soul, rhythm and blues), dance performances, exploring San Francisco, political forums with intelligent and articulate leftist-oriented thinkers, flea markets, beading, sightseeing and day trips in and around the SF area. The group is open to all singles, es …

In this club, we put the emphasis on pairing wine not only with food, but art, field trips, charitable causes, even the Blue Angels ("juice and jets"), which enhances a broader appreciation of the Wondrous and Wacky World of Wine in different settings.   Most people are content socializing in wine bars, and at least three other Bay Area meetups do only this very successfully once a month. But for those who want more than chatter over a glass of wine, we offer informal educational programs in a r …

Thanks for your interest in California Crowd Funding. Why This Group?      This group is needed to rally public support for a crowd funding law letting entrepreneurs raise startup money from the general public. Silicon Valley and California is bursting with small companies ready to launch. The 2008 crash slowed Angel investments in startups.      So to create new jobs and let people pursue their business dreams, a California Crowd Funding exemption is needed.      Crowd funding lets the general …
