You are too funny, anyway I think you should start a home wresting group down Frankston way. I know many women who would love to join such a club, but have problems finding places which have these activities. Best of luck!

I referenced a link to articles from Biztimes.com for you to read about building connections although I am not sure they will really satisfies your question.  The site also has a calendar of events for the Milwaukee area which includes several business related clubs, which I mention in hopes there is something similar in your area.  Other ideas are things like attending your local toastmasters meetings.  (Toastmasters is a national public speaking club that I think helps develop the presentation skills of professionals)  You may also look out for small business convention in or around your states major cities.  Milwaukee has a small business expo every year where thousands of small business owners congregated for a weekend.  Feel free to contact me directly and I can help you search for some other social networking opportunities in your area.  As mentioned it is hard to make suggestions without a location.  A good place to start researching is to go to your local SBA website and also try googling “(your area) small business expo”  \n\nGood luck!

Some universities publish a list of Aumini on their websites. I would use this as a first point. Alternatively try Friends Reunited but not everyone logs onto that.

You can go to their website (http://www.freemasonry.org/) and check out the local chapters in your area.  Many have their own websites with information on becomng a member of the society.

I really recommend joining some clubs that relate to your interests.  Even so, you will have to step outside your comfort zone a bit and strike up conversations with people.  Don't wait for others to make all the effort as friendships take two working on it to develop.

There are a couple of ways. \nwww.helpyourcommunity.org\nwww.idealist.org\n\nIf nothing else google the word volunteer and you should be able to find what you are looking for. Also, check into Boys and Girls club in your area and you could find that they have needs or know of some needs that would fill what you are looking for.

Toastmasters International - http://www.toastmasters.org/\n\nI heard about them for years, and often would people reccommend them to me. I had lots of excuses: "I'm an instructor! I talk in front of poeple all day!" "I am too tired when I get off work to add something else" "I took Speech class in school"\n\nWhen I finally got around to going I was amazed - it worked! A few tips -\n* Try different clubs as a visitor until you find one that fits. Each club is run by the members - which means that each club is a little different.\n* Once you join, make a committment to stay at least long enough to finish the first book. It will help you work through the rough spots. Because Toasmasters is ongoing, there is no "end" like there would be with a class.\n* Toastmasters really helps you work through your specific issues whatever they are. The variety in my club is not unusual: IT guys, non-native speakers, trainer/instructors, retired, unemployed, FT employed, student...etc. Everyone starts from thier own place.

Join some young professional clubs like the Junior Chamber of Commerce.  Try http://www.friendfinder.com I'll be your friend.  I'm looking to make about 50 new friends this year so we can all get together and party year around and go places.  Sounds like fun, give me a holler.\nScott

There's an internet site know as "meetup.com" that has all sorts of groups and clubs on it.  You can either join or contact them to find out what they're up to.  Yes, these clubs exist in the East Bay as well.\nFinally, anyone who hasn't heard of the Bay Area per se must have spent the better part of their lives hiding-out somewhere in the whiles of 'never-never land'. :)

In our area we have the Kiwanis, Lion's Club, etc.  You might check with various "thrift stores", as they often are also sponsored (behind the scenes) by ministry- based services.  Also, you should have in you community, possibly even through the Adult Education portion of your college, an advocate for any "school" issues that arise.  If this does not work - do not be afraid to make an appointment to see the Dean of your University - explain the situation and I'll bet you get some answers and avenues real quick!  Have courage!

Most campuses have a Young Republican or Young Democrat club you can join.  Also, get involved in your college as a President of the Student Body, you usuasally can get pretty involved in not only campus politics but also local politics.  I would also recommend internships over the summer or as a job.
