Boarders welcome!!! Even though the resorts near Chicago never break the top 100 places to board in US, we're just glad the winter is cold and long.  We are a fun group of shredders, ranging from beginners to national competitors so you'll always be able to find someone to shred with.  Membership is free but the meetup site does cost money so we do encourage members to show support by purchasing WCB bandanas, stickers or shirts. You may also be wondering what we'll be doing off season. Well, so …

Hi Everyone! Welcome to our group. After attending several events and meeting some wonderful people thru meetup Liz, Sheila and I formed this group in March of 2008. Little did we know that this group would turn out to be the most popular in the western suburbs and with that form many new friendships along the way. Without the initial help & suggestions and input of the original members this group would not be what it is today. Many thanks should go to them and to Liz & Sheila who stayed focus o …

Nature Trail Runners is a casual running club that hosts group runs in Montgomery, Oswego, Aurora and Naperville. We aim to take advantage of the many scenic bike paths and trails the area has to offer. We also host social events so we can all hang out and relax after those tough runs! I started this club because I was unable to find one near where I live. There are wonderful running clubs for Bolingbrook, St. Charles, Downers Grove, and many other surrounding cities, but none for the large city …

Let’s meet once or twice a month to enjoy activities like movies, festivals, biking, dancing, museums, lectures, et …
