It would be great to meet new people in the area and to help each other stay accountable for a lifestyle change.

I challenged myself to do 12 5ks in 12 months. In the end it was the best challenge I have ever set for myself because it turned out to be an adventure than I had not anticipated on having. Anyways, I wanted to make the expereince more social. I know a lot of people sign up for races because of family or friends, but what happens when that person can't go and you don't have any body to do a particular race with you? I know, most people end up not doing the race in that situation! So, I figured c …

For those of us who are introverts/loners and/or "live inside" our heads, making new friends can be more of a …

Do you live between the IL/WI border west of I-94 to Genoa City & anywhere between Round Lake, IL to Salem, WI? Do you have a child born after June 2006? Are you tired of staying home all day and feel like you don't know how to have an adult conversation anymore? To keep a relatively small group we've decided to limit the group to 40 or so members, and we generally meet at parks, librarys or people's homes.  We have a variety of events on the calendar at different times of the days to fit parent …

This group would meet at a now undetermined place in the north west suburbs.

Whether you have a newborn, toddler or school aged kid you are welcome, but the only thing we ask is that you be a "younger" mama in your 20's/early 30's.

I'm a mom of 3. 2 year old twins and a 3 year old and I'm so excited to get this group going! My goal is to create play dates, support and maybe we can fit in some girls nights  too! Play dates will be different ti …
