SUMMARY:Thunderstruck - AC/DC Tribute
DESCRIPTION:Thunderstruck \nFacebook • Website • Watch on YouTube \nThunderstruck gives fans so much more than the sound of AC/DC\, they truly capture the high voltage energy and experience.  For fans\, it’s about a sense of familiarity\, and it’s about a feeling that snatches up listeners and takes over.  It’s about a contagious kind of power and electricity that few AC/DC tribute bands can provide.  \n  \nDark Trilogy (opening act) \nFacebook \nInstrumental Progressive Rock band from the Midwest\, USA. A soaring and melodic power trio\, blending elements of 80’s Shrapnel shred with a current vibe.

SUMMARY:A Hike and Swim at Warren Dunes
DESCRIPTION:This event starts at 12:00 pm ET (Michigan time) which is 11:00 am CT (Chicago time). because of the expected difficulty entering the park and parking\, expect that the hike will set off at 12:30 ET. \nbecause of the popularity of this park on summer weekends\, there could be extensive parking delays. if you can contact the organizers\, let them know if you will be late\, but they are aware\, and will give some latitude for this. \nif you are way late\, you might want to follow the instructions below for walking north on the beach and meeting the group when they descend to the shore. \ndear friends– \nThis hike is at Warren Dunes state park in Michigan. We had good times here in 2015\, 2016\, 2017\, 2019\, and 2022! So we expect a good time here in 2024. \nthis hike will be a collaboration among Rick’s Hiking and Fun Group [https://www.meetup.com/Ricks-Hiking-Fun-Group/](https://www.meetup.com/Ricks-Hiking-Fun-Group/) \, and several other groups\, including \nSouthwest Michigan Friends [https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-yjezdrty/](https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-yjezdrty/) \nWabash Valley Hiking & Social Group https://www.meetup.com/wabash-valley-hiking-social-meetup-group/ \nthere is a gate fee to enter the park\, so be prepared. i believe it is about $10 for out of state per vehicle\, not sure what it is for in state. \nBe sure to check the weather beforehand\, and dress appropriately [https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/warren-dunes-state-park/49125/weather-forecast/30155_poi](https://www.accuweather.com/en/us/warren-dunes-state-park/49125/weather-forecast/30155_poi) . bring along a lunch which we will eat on the beach\, plus enough water (one quart minimum)\, a hat with a brim\, sunscreen\, etc. we will be both in the woods and on the beach\, and i’m not sure what conditions are like this time of year\, so make your own decisions about insect repellent. \nwe will meet at the farthest north parking lot\, near the washrooms. at that point\, we will discuss whether everyone wants to take the entire hike\, or if some would rather skip the inland part of the route and spend more time on the beach. \nthe hike route will be about 5 miles with at least 2-3 steep climbs. we will walk inland over Mt Randall\, and turn north and hike along Painterville Creek\, past the campground\, to the junction with the Blue Jay trail\, then we will descend to the lakefront on the Blue Jay trail with a spectacular view of the Lake\, before arriving at the shore. \nonce at the shore\, we will make an extended stop to swim\, hang out at the beach\, and eat our lunch. after that\, we walk about a mile along the beach back to the parking lot. \nif anyone would like a shorter hike and more beach time\, they may walk north along the beach about one mile\, and stop where the Blue Jay trail emerges from inland and hits the lakefront\, where the other hikers will end up after the inland part of the hike. watch from the point where a rather wide trail comes down to the beach\, just before the end of the park\, where lakefront houses will begin\, and boats may be pulled up in the shallow water. \nthe shorter route\, just from the parking area to the swim stop and back is about 2 miles round trip. \nat the swim stop\, we can discuss whether anyone wants to go into Sawyer to have dinner or visit the garden center and fruit market there. \nhope to see you\, \nErin and Erica \ndirections to Warren Dunes state park: \ntake 1-94 to Sawyer rd exit\, turn east; take Sawyer rd to Red Arrow hwy\, turn right; continue to Warren Dunes state park entrance\, turn left; continue on State Park rd to last parking lot\, park there; look for a crowd\, or call me at 773-415-0428; try to arrive by 12:00 PM EDT (11:00 AM CDT); we will wait till 12:30 EDT\, then depart on foot.

SUMMARY:Stray Dog Lunch and a Walk to the Beach\, New Buffalo\, Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The Stray Dog officially opens at 12 ET\, but if there are people waiting at the door\, they will sometimes open 10-20 minutes earlier than that. so that we are able to sit together at this popular location\, i’d like to be there when they actually open the doors. \nto find our group if you haven’t met me\, i will be wearing a crimson hat that says “Easthampton MA” on it. \ndear friends– \nwe invite you to lunch at the rooftop garden of the ever popular Stray Dog in New Buffalo\, Michigan\, 245 N Whittaker St\, 269-469-2727\, https://thestraydog.com/2014/5/13/8h845ri6vpn89heud2mz0sdso2bbn5 \nwe will enjoy a pleasant lunch together\, then take a short walk through the harbor area and down to the beach\, weather permitting. \nto make things run more smoothly\, I strongly recommend that you have enough cash to pay the bill: some restaurants don’t like splitting up credit card charges. \nwe try to get separate checks when possible\, but if not\, just figure what your order cost (don’t forget beverages\, desserts\, and your share of appetizers)\, add about 1/3 of your total for tax and tip\, and contribute it to the pot. \nIf you have a coupon you’d like to use at this or any other dinner\, please check with me first. If I have a coupon for the whole group to use\, and there is a limit of one per table\, the group coupon will take priority. If not\, feel free to use yours. \nif you have symptoms of\, or have recently tested positive for Covid-19 (or any other contagious disease)\, please DO NOT ATTEND. \nif you are just coming for lunch\, park in their (rather limited) lot. if you’d like to join in the walk down to the lakefront\, i suggest you come slightly early\, and **park** on one of the **side streets** off the “main drag” (Whittaker st)\, where parking is abundant and without restriction as long as you’re ok walking a few blocks (hey\, we are a hiking group). \nafter lunch\, Kathy will lead the group over the bridge\, past the harbor\, and out to the town beach. from there\, we can hang out on the shore\, wade or swim\, or hike on the beach ridge a short distance. \nas of the last time we visited here in 2019\, there was no walk-in fee to use the beach\, though i can’t guarantee what we will find now. \nwe hope to see you there\, \nRick and Kathy

SUMMARY:Funk\, Rock\, Jazz & Bluegrass Vibes with Dopapod & The Motet
DESCRIPTION:Dopapod \nFacebook • Website • YouTube \nThe group’s hypnotic hybrid of funk\, rock\, jazz\, bluegrass\, and electronica bloomed brilliantly on 2009’s Radar\, and it continued to blossom on the likes of Never Odd Or Even [2014] and Megagem [2017]. Along the way\, fan favorites such as “Present Ghosts” reeled in 2.4 million Spotify streams and counting. 2019’s Emit Time arrived to acclaim from Guitar World\, Relix\, Glide\, Jambase\, and more. Simultaneously\, they sold out headline gigs and graced the bills of Electric Forest\, Summer Camp\, High Sierra\, and Bonnaroo where Rolling Stone named them among the festival’s “best kept secrets.” After a marathon near-decade run\, they enjoyed an almost year-long hiatus to realign and reenergize before reuniting with a new fire during 2019 and partaking in something of a “soft return.” \nMusic resides in the fourth dimension unaffected by the constraints and restrictions of this mortal coil. Instead\, it occupies the ether\, affecting us emotionally\, physically\, and spiritually without concrete form or shape. As such\, Dopapod access a heightened level of cosmic harmony in their music. The quartet—Eli Winderman [keys\, vocals]\, Rob Compa [guitar\, vocals]\, Chuck Jones [bass]\, and Neal “Fro” Evans [drums]—present albums as experiences meant to be shared out of your speakers and on stage. After generating millions of streams\, packing shows coast-to-coast\, and earning acclaim from Rolling Stone\, Guitar World\, Glide Magazine\, and more\, the group architect an immersive and expansive vision on their self-titled seventh full-length offering\, Dopapod \nThe Motet \nFacebook • Website • YouTube \nFormed over two decades ago\, the funk six-piece The Motet have learned to work as an interlocking unit\, with each member bolstering one another towards the best creative output. This symbiosis has led to a unique style and cohesive musical chemistry\, as seen in the band’s immaculate live performances and seamless blend of funk\, soul\, jazz\, and rock. With a fervent fanbase in tow\, The Motet have sold out shows across the nation\, performed six headlining slots at Red Rocks and sets at festivals such as Bonnaroo\, Bottlerock\, Electric Forest\, Bumbershoot\, Summer Camp\, and High Sierra. \n  \nTAUK \nFacebook • Website • YouTube

SUMMARY:Lunch at Ghost Isle Brewery\, walk at Galien River Park\, and an exciting new idea
DESCRIPTION:Ghost Isle Brewery officially opens at 12 ET\, but if there are people waiting at the door\, they will sometimes open 10-20 minutes earlier than that. so that we are able to sit together at this popular location\, i’d like to be there when they actually open the doors. \nto find our group if you haven’t met me\, i will be wearing a crimson hat that says “Easthampton MA” on it. \nthis event will be sponsored jointly with Northern Indiana Adventures https://www.meetup.com/northern-indiana-adventures/ . \nthis will be an all-weather event–if the weather is bad\, we will just skip the hike part. \ndear friends– \ncome join us for a Saturday lunch at Ghost Isle Brewery https://www.ghostislebrewery.com/ \, followed by a short walk at Galien River County Park–that’s the one with the cool observation tower. https://www.berriencounty.org/1297/Galien-River-County-Park \nto make things run more smoothly\, I strongly recommend that you have enough cash to pay the bill: some restaurants don’t like splitting up credit card charges. \nwe try to get separate checks when possible\, but if not\, just figure what your order cost (don’t forget beverages\, desserts\, and your share of appetizers)\, add about 1/3 of your total for tax and tip\, and contribute it to the pot. \nIf you have a coupon you’d like to use at this or any other meal\, please check with me first. If I have a coupon for the whole group to use\, and there is a limit of one per table\, the group coupon will take priority. If not\, feel free to use yours. \nafter lunch\, for those who want a short hike ending in a great observation post\, we drive a few miles to Galien River County Park. \ndirections from Ghost Isle to Galien River Park: \ngo east on US 12; when US 12 turns right\, go straight instead onto the Red Arrow hwy; go about a mile\, and turn into the Galien River Park lot on the left (opposite the township offices). \nwe’ve invited both the Southwest Michigan Friends\, and the Northern Indiana Adventures groups to this event\, to introduce the possibility that the two groups may merge in the coming months\, partly due to the relatively high cost of belonging to meetup\, and the fact that the two groups have considerably overlapping memberships\, and overlapping venues for events. \nseveral names have been suggested for the new combined group\, but Michiana Melting Pot has been an idea at least for a working title. \nif you’re only coming for the walk\, i imagine we will meet at the park about 1:30 ET or so. call me a bit before that and i can give you a better start time. remember\, this is not a serious hike\, just a short walk after lunch ending up at an impressive observation tower.. \nhope to see you\, and bon appetit\, \nRick

SUMMARY:Group Updates
DESCRIPTION:* **This is not an actual event but an announcement for the upcoming changes. I wrote this for the NIA group but will share here so we have a cross over.**\n*\n* We are in the process of merging Northern Indiana Adventures and Southwest Michigan Friends groups into one group. We will be the same as we have been but the NIA group will dissolve. There are two reasons for this:\n* firstly\, Rick has been looking for someone to take the lead in the SMF group\n* and secondly\, I would like to make this meetup group completely free. That means no fees\, no fundraiser\, and no asking for money. \nRick will remain the organizer in the new group because it is typically his group but Stasia and I will be doing a majority of the organizing.\nOn meetup\, if you pay for an organizer subscription\, you can have three different groups– so Rick is letting us co-organize his 3rd group.\nAnyone who is already an NIA event organizer will be made event organizers in the new group which will be called **[Michiana Adventures](https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-yjezdrty)**.\nYou may already be a MEMBER — check or JOIN here NOW! [https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-yjezdrty](https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-yjezdrty)\nThis process will take the next few months and we should be one Ahhh-mazing group **by Jan 6th**. We have had a lot of wonderful adventures in the NIA group\, and I look forward to even more in the coming years.\n**If there are any photos here that you really like and have not saved\, I would save them 😊**\n*If you have any ideas for an event you would be interested in hosting\, please let me or Stasia know. We are always open to giving your creative ideas a stage. The adventures are open to any type of event that you enjoy\, not just fitness and nature. There are just a few simple guidelines.*\nWe have a **[breakfast scheduled Sept 14th](https://www.meetup.com/northern-indiana-adventures/events/302473686/?utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=share-btn_savedevents_share_modal&utm_source=link) click link to join us!** if you would like to chat about new possibilities. I’m adding a walk to that breakfast because the East Race is right there. Or if you have any questions or input\, you can comment here.

We will enjoy our self-created picnics and bevvies in a circle as we share whatever we wish to share about our discoveries this day or any other.\n6. We will either end the experience at this point or some of us may wish to take a faster\, super\, healthy heart walk. \n**All Events:**\n**Only REAL rule – BE KIND!!** Remember everyone has their own inner & outer stuff – a kind word and smile and willingness to include goes a lonnnnngggg way. Leave the grumbly wumblies and politics at home please!! \n**we are currently trying cross post everything!

SUMMARY:Cocktails\, Lipstick & Floofy Hair First Fridays Monthly Gathering
DESCRIPTION:💋👗🍷🍾🍸💃 **Lipstick\, Floofy Hair & Cute Outfits and Cocktails!** (all optional) – but you get the drift. 💋👗🍷🍾🍸💃 \n**We are going out on the town the first friday of each month**.\nThis will be a repeating event (if people are in to it!). \nThe event is primarily for those who identify as female who want a bit more fancy in their lives — \n**BUT** we won’t object to a coupla-few male identifiers wanting to get a bit snazzy (bow-tie optional) and join us! (as always\, all-inclusive!) \n**Friday October 4th 6:30p:**\n**Begin at Perry Vine for Wine Tasting**\n**head over to Howard Pub for more tasting and listen to outdoor live music (Los Hermanos Buenos).**\n**Depending on the time and flow\, we may head over to the Cellar or Ironhand.** \nI have noticed as we modernize\, that “dressing-up” has gone by the wayside. When I look at photos of my mom in the 1950s and 60s\, it was such a LOVELY time!! Pretty dresses\, pumps & lotsa hairspray and happy smiles all around\, hahahah. \n**Anyways\, if this sounds fun\, RSVP** and start sorting thru your closet or find a good thrift store with some fun clothes!! \n*This will be primarily a drinkies and enjoying good music event\, so eat a hearty alcohol-soaking-up meal beforehand!* \nPS this is not about getting “alcohol-messy”\, just a a bit tipsy\, having some glam-fun and being safe – so all three places are within “higher heels” walking distance. **CARPOOL if you can!!** \nONLY RULE: BE kind and get to know EVERYONE!!
