MDA is all about sports—every sport—from popular ones like volleyball, tennis, softball, and soccer, to more obscure ones like parkour, bocce ball, and curling. During the warmer months we’re likely to play ultimate, sand volleyball, and a third sport at least every week; as well as bike, skate, and socialize. Below are short films highlighting some of the many sports and activities you could eventually participate in: 2010 Meetup film:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qy_ql2E6AF8 2009 Meetup fil …
