The meetings generally go no later than 9pm. We are casual and enthusiastic; our members enjoy reading and collectively choosing and discussing books on a monthly basis. We take turns selecting the books …

… If you would like to present a topic or have an idea for a discussion, please let us know at meetup@kazaamweb.com. Marketing is a cutthroat industry, but this will not be a cutthroat conversation. Our meetings will not be about competition or self-promotion. If discussion gets inappropriate or uncomfortable or overly boring, we have a life-size dinosaur in our downstairs area to intervene. His name is Kazilla; he only bytes if necessary. The goal of this group is to share, to discuss, to learn, …

With the help of a group of close friends, I identified the need for grassroots education on issues of local food, and systems sustainability. Menu for the Future is the local resource for creating small, intimate discussions around what we eat, where our food comes from, food safety, food insecurity, creating edible schoolyards in our neighborhoods, and supporting or even become local food growers. We meet, we read, we think, we choose, we act. If you are interested in bridging the gap betwee …

Okay, so it may not be the best title. Forgive me, I'm semi-new to this site. I couldn't find a group in Bucks County I could enjoy. So i decided to start my own! I am hoping to meet others who would like to get together bi-weekly or monthly. If we did it bi-weekly... we could get together during the first week of the month, see a movie. And during the third week, we could all review a book, or discuss titles we have enjoyed. If we do it monthly, we could try to see a movie followed by dr …

The purpose of this group is to start a group of gentlemen who are intelligent, driven, and appreciate meaningful discussion. That being said, we're not stuffy. Crass subjects, foul language, sarcasm and funny jokes made in poor tast …
