@OhioMike already planning on itβ¦and this time will get a hotel on Olentangy Rd instead of way out by the airport or up in Dublin somewhere π
@TeaCuddle Iβm down, letβs do this. π€ I missed the last few in CA. This would be great!
@JohnR1972 brought up a really cool idea for a Meet & Greet in Michigan this year for Labor Day. This group of Peace Minded People who tend to be accepting of others no matter their lifestyle preference etc. seems like it would be the perfect environment for something like us cuddle minded peeps.
Looks like $30 a day to attend and if you want to get a campsite or RV spot its around $200 for the weekend. Maybe someone up there in the GREAT LAKES area would be interested in spearheading this?? ππππ¦πβ¨

@JohnR1972 shared about his experience in another thread.
It doesnβt really count as a convention but last September I attended βHippie Living Fairβ just outside Grand Rapids, MI. It features live music, numerous food trucks, camping, vendor booths, etc. I attended with someone I met on this site and we both thought it would be a perfect place to hold a CC meet and greet in September 2024. I donβt know what the vendor booth / tents cost but I the way the event was set up, I suspect the prices were reasonable. There is plenty of parking and the vibe of the whole event was open, friendly and laid back. It truly seemed like an ideal place to do a meet and greet. We were only there for Friday evening but the whole event runs Friday through Sunday. There are a lot of CC members in Michigan and the Ionia Fairgrounds are about 3.5 hours from Chicago where we have a LOT of members. The event is early September which in that part of Michigan is beautiful during the day and a bit cool in the evening. Everyone will need to bring a lawn chair or blanket if they want to watch the live music in the evening (I found out the hard way the stadium seats were closed so you either have to stand or BYOC).
I am definitely interested in any in California. Keeping my eyes open!
Anyone interested in having a Meet and Greet in North Carolina????
I was thinking about having a meet and greet again in Atlanta, but meet at a restaurant. I loved meeting in the park in Roswell, it was amazing, but meeting at a location where we just have to show up may be ideal. We set a time and location then go from there. Nothing to really bring or have to load or unload. Iβm just thinking out loud, lol. Let me know!!!! π€π€π€
@Hollydollhugs you guys did an incredible job the last time you had it in Atlanta. I wish I could have been there with you guys.
Vegas resident here. Would love to join a meet and greet!
Chicago meet & greet coming up soon. Hosted by @coquette and myself. π€π₯³
@JasminCuddles and @coquette I'm out in Darien and would be interested in a Chicago meet & greet.
@Vocalist100 Hey! We recently posted a thread on an upcoming meet and greet in Chicago. I hope to see you there π

Awwwwww thank you! Such goodness here and lots of stuff happening! Excite to see @MollyT trying to get something started in the UK.
Where it all began!!
A destination Meet & Greet sounds absolutely delightful πππ
@Connecticut1977 I would! I live in NC and am looking to meet people, a cuddle party meet and great sounds like a great idea to me.
@Kalo I'd be interested! I live in NC as well. Raleigh Durham area. How about you?
@AHug4You and @Kalo I live in the Greenville NC area.
****February 17th Chicago M&G**** Thank you for your interest! Unfortunately, the vision for this event could not come together. But keep your eyes open for future planning and events!
Sincerely, Coquette & Jasmin
Anyone interested in meeting in the Atlanta area? Very casual, dinner at a restaurant possibly? I was even thinking about a certain location that also has dancing. Just let me know. π
Brand spanking new to CA from MD, ready to cuddle at a moments notice!
Details are still on their way for may 4th Portland Oregon meet up -- just needed a few weeks to regroup and refresh my mental fortitude. π

Please feel free to reach out by sending me a message directly if youβre interested in attending this event. Details are below β¬οΈ
Privately held indoors at a gorgeous location in Evanston, just steps from the lake! Parking is also easily accessible. Bring yourself and good vibes only. Iβve got everything else taken care of for a wonderful time ahead. Thank you for your patience and support ππ€ππ₯³

There has been a lot of talk about different Meet & Greet's and I wanted to ask who might be interested in a Petaluma, CA, WINE COUNTRY Meet?? The mention of a possible connection close to San Fransisco has been hovering between fact and fiction.
-----LET ME PREFACE..... Before anyone gets nervous.... This doesn't mean you have to like wine. Be a Sommelier. Drink wine. Be around wine. ETC. π
WHO IS INTERESTED?????
In a wine country meet and greet? These guys:
@sillysassy I would be interested in a get together close to SF. I'm near San Jose, so that would be an easy drive, plus I enjoy the city. I'm not much of a wine drinker, but I absolutely don't mind being around spirits. π
Hey. I am new to this. Like brand new. And trying to understand how everything goes. Just curious. Have there ever been any meet and greet or cuddle parties in Indianapolis?
hahhahaha Omgosh @BoomerSpooner you are 100% correct. πππ€£
@KateBee what a beautiful picture!!! And I appreciate the beauty of your world. Thanks for chiming in. There has been a lot of feedback around SF and LA so we will see what winds up happening first...
@The_HeartDonor All of the Meet & Greets have been organized by community members. If you look at the beginning of the thread you will be able to get an idea of how things "sort of" happen. THAT BEING SAID.... there are a million different ways to do things. So I suppose the anser to "trying to understand how everything goes" is best described as "it depends on the organizer." @Babichev was the first to introduce this get together in St. Louis after the pandemic which shall not be named. Outside. Public space. NOT A CUDDLE PARTY just a connection of like minded souls. As far as Indianapolis.... The closest was last year when @OhioMike facilitated the "Rose-CO Meet & Greet" in Columbus a few hours away from you. It was LOVELY!!! So much fun was had by many. https://www.cuddlecomfort.com/forum/discussion/16886/columbus-ohio-meet-greet-rose-co-cuddles-saturday-august-19-2023/p1
@The_HeartDonor Welcome to the site. Thank you for being a Pro, I wish you all the best!!! And as always.... May the Cuddle Gods be EVER in your favor!!! πππ¦πΌπ
How about in WY?
