Where and when do you hold regularly-scheduled meetings? We meet from 7:00pm until 8:00pm on the 2nd Thursday of each month, followed by going out for dinner and conversation from 8:00-9:30pm. We usually meet at the Ferndale Public Library. Who can attend your meetings and social events? The group is for LGBT individuals and allies, ages 18-33. Is there a cost to attend meetings and social events? The meetings are free to attend. Individuals are responsible for all costs associated with social events. What are the meetings like? We are an extremely welcoming and friendly group. Meetings typically begin with an icebreaker so new and returning members are introduced and everybody can get to know each other. Meetings usually end with an open discussion followed by dinner and/or drinks at a local establishment. Is this more of a social group or a coming-out group? Currently, it is a social group with a discussion component. People in all different stages of the coming out process attend our meetings. The 20 Somethings strive to make everyone feel at ease regardless of their levels of openness about their sexuality. I’m new to the city and/or new to the LGBT community. I‘m not really into the cruisy scene. Would your group be something for me? Certainly! The 20 Somethings strive to create a safe positive atmosphere where people can make new friends and establish relationships outside of the bar/club scene. Members often attend their first meeting by themselves and continually come back due to the friendships formed. Can you go to an event organized by 20 Somethings without ever going to a 20 Somethings meeting? Absolutely! You do not have to attend our meetings in order to attend our events. A main goal of the group is to provide people in their twenties alternate social activities and engage members in the community. We welcome any and all involvement.
Always welcoming new and old members, ages 18-33—for LGBT individuals and allies!
