What we’re about
🌈 Welcome to The Social/Movie Group!
A fun, friendly LGBTQIA+ community where everyone’s welcome—as long as you bring kindness, respect, and good vibes!
We host dinners, movie nights, comedy shows, casino trips, theme park days, and community events several times a month. It’s all about connection, laughter, and shared experiences.
Beyond the fun, we also enjoy meaningful conversations about life, love, and staying active in our community.
💬 Have ideas? Drop let us know—we love exploring new places and trying new things together!
Volunteer-Run & Community-Powered
Our group is run by volunteer event organizers who plan and host activities in their own free time—doing things they genuinely enjoy and want to share with others. Events are created when and how our organizers are able, so schedules and offerings may vary.
If you’re interested in helping plan, host, or support events, we’d love to hear from you. Please reach out to us via direct message or email to get involved.
Cancellations, No-Shows, and Communication Policy
If you're feeling sick or unwell, we completely understand — your health comes first! We kindly ask that you take a moment to update your RSVP to "Not Attending" as soon as you're able, even if it's just a quick update when you have a minute.
For all group events, please update your RSVP at least two hours before the event if you can no longer attend.
We enforce a three-strike policy for no-shows or lack of communication. After three instances of missing an event without notice, members will be removed from the group.
Thank you for helping us keep things respectful and running smoothly for everyone!
