Meet other local hiking and outdoor enthusiasts. All those who are interested in outdoor excursions near and far and meeting new people to do things with around home. New to the area? The group is a great way to get to know the area.
We are a group that loves to do anything and everything outdoors. Some of our more typical adventures are: day hiking, camping, backpacking, rock climbing, ski/snowboarding, and caving. If you have an idea for our next adventure please email one of the Organizers or post it on the message board. We are always on the lookout to try something new. *The Ideas section is disabled to do spammers*
The purpose of the Las Cruces Running Group is to establish, promote, and maintain an active running community in Las Cruces and the surrounding areas. We do this by providing opportunities for runners of all ages and abilities to meet their personal fitness goals by conducting running seminars, group training sessions and competitive events; recruiting members who support the promotion of running as a healthy habit, and fostering a climate of mutual support, goodwill and fellowship.
This group was started to help parents of young children connect with other families in the area for playdates, outings and other fun activities. We can meet up at parks, the mall, picnics, go to the movies, go swimming and maybe even get together for a (much needed) mom's night out. Your suggestions for meet ups are always welcome, too.
The focus of the group will be on moms and kids, but dads and other family members are welcome as well as caregivers and friends that want to get out and socialize. You are also encouraged to let other parents with children know about the playgroup, if you think they may be interested.
We do ask that you upload a picture of yourself (and your children if you would like to) and fill out the questionnaire. This is so the other members can learn a little about you and make it easier to find eachother at meet ups.
We look forward to meeting you and your family!
The purpose of meditation is to silence your mind and find inner peace. Some focus on breathing to control the numerous thoughts that come into your mind when you meditate. Others repeat a mantra to control one's thoughts. Movement which could be walking or dancing is another approach to silencing one's mind and finding inner peace.
I invite you to engage in weekly moving meditations followed by monthly sitting meditations (these will be announced in January 2012).
For the weekly meditations, we warm up for about 15 minutes in silence and then come together as a group for introductions and the selection of a theme for the evening. We dance in silence for about an hour and then we come together for a silence meditation. At the end, we discuss our experiences. There are usually 6 to 8 regulars that come, not all are signed up for meet-up.
You dance, move or walk around at your own risk. Know your body and its limitations. You can always just sit and meditation at the sessions.
All visitors welcome to our Spiritual Meetings - We meet twice a month on 2nd and 4th Thursday and Sunday meeting once a month.

Very low fee, refreshments served, friendly group. Give us a try, you will enjoy!
We are a group where our one and only goal is to make you a part of our circle of friends. This group is designed for you to network and expand your social contacts. It's all about having fun over great food and casual conversation. We will also be attending and supporting surronding area events. Weekend traveling is a must as there are some great restaurants in areas such as Ruidoso and Alburqurque.
Stroller Strides is a fitness program that moms can do with their babies! This incredible one hour workout consists of power-walking/running, cardiovascular bursts, and body toning using exercise tubing and the environment. Kids come along for a stroller ride and are engaged by interactive activities such as songs and bubbles while mom gets her body back! All classes are taught by certified instructors who are also moms.
This program is great for the parent that wants to get her exercise but has no time away from baby. Through Stroller Strides, parents can connect with each other, and can get their children involved in a routine that supports a healthy lifestyle.
Welcome to the ? Las Cruces Motorcycle Riders. I started this group with the intentions of attracting other solo riders who would occasionally like to ride with a group but not belong to a "club". I'm in for a easy going day or evening trip or a stop for some coffee, apple pie and laughs! I'll do a long trip if I can get the time off! ;-)
I've only been riding since 2005, so I'm no veteran to the roads. Luckily, our co-organizer, Garry B. knows his way around and only days after inception of this Meetup Group, we've managed to have ourselves a really good time. We're open to suggestions, so join up, and let's create some new riding memories to this journey we call life.
Safe and responsible riding comes first and I don't care what brand you ride - as long as you can keep up with the posted speed limit to avoid possible safety issues.
If you are a passenger only, then this group isn't for you. You need to ride your own bike, unless you are signing up as a couple and you're the passenger.
Single Professionals coming together to network over various social events and striving to make a difference in our community. It's a way to make new friends as we enjoy evenings that will include dinner and dancing, private house parties, speed dating and much more.
We will also be hosting events in which we raise money for organizations such as: American Red Cross, Candlelighters , Animal Rescue League and many more.
Other events will include weekend traveling, casino gaming nights, bowling, shooting pool, wine festivals, listening to live bands etc.
Have you ever wanted to share a cosmopolitan with the girls like on Sex in the City? Then you are in luck! Join us for Girls Night Out. Let your hair down and leave your man at home. We will be getting together the first Friday night of each month to sip cocktails at a local watering hole and talk about the important stuff like hairstyles, men, fashion, men, nails, men and oh yeah, work. Seriously, we are no dummies but we want to keep it a little light and fluffy to de-stress. However, discourse on quantum physics is allowed. If you want giggles and a chance to blow off steam, sign on for a Girls Night Out. Our general age range is ladies 30-55.
The purpose of this group is to meet local game enthusiasts and also to provide a welcoming location to get together and play. The emphasis of this group is on thematic, fantasy, strategy, sci-fi, designer,cooperative, Euro, party, family, and gateway games.
All ages, backgrounds, and experience levels (or lack thereof!) are welcome! The only requirements are a willingness to meet, learn, and play.

Share your interests in Italian food, cuisine, music, language, history & arts with fellow Italian-Americans, though you do not have to be Italian to join this Meetup or participate. One of our goals is to become an officially recognized local Chapter/Lodge of The Order Of Sons Of Italy In America, the second such chapter in the State, because it is a worthy goal for any ethnic group to have it's traditions preserved.
Always read the fine print:
You don't have to be a member to attend any of our public events, or to get to know us. But you cannot be guaranteed a place where reservations for members on this site are required, unless you are a Member of this Meetup and do use the "reserve" option
This is not a computer internet social media type club just for posting your picture and details. We are an active club that interacts with each other, face to face, in real time. If you are inactive for a period of time, you will be removed.
The Organizer and/or other members will need to meet with you personally before your Membership is approved.
I recently moved to Las Cruces and I am the mother of a "spirited child". I learned this term while reading a book by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka. It means a child that is more intense, sensitive, persistent, and energetic than the average child. Some might call her "difficult" or "strong-willed", but I prefer to use the term "spirited" because it gives a fuller picture. She is simply "more" of everything both good and difficult. Anyway, I am in great need of the company of other moms who have similar children. My daughter is 2; however, anyone with children from infancy through elementary school is welcome.
Being the mom of a spirited child can be both immensely satisfying and frustrating. I am hoping that this group will be a support through both the good and difficult times!
