Try the Events Board instead
Or see Gone, But Not Forgotten for more information.
Original page
Okay, people. Here's my brilliant idea.
This page should list various activities that are open to all and which originate by means of RocWiki community members.
This is different from external links that lead you to community organizations. Those require membership and are too much trouble for people like me (as nice as those people may or may not be).
For example: last weekend was a beautiful weekend. I played tennis with friends at Cobbs Hill. If I would have posted this perhaps more people would have shown up and doubles could have happened. Now that I think about it, why are there not informal tennis, softball, frisbee, etc. leagues? Even my little neighborhood organization can manage that.
Another example: my friends cheat at boardgames and the cat is a terrible referee. "Potluck" also involves me cooking more than anyone else.
Are people open to this idea? Comment away and maybe someone with more knowledge and experience can guide us in the right direction.

2007-04-25 11:40:54 I like this idea, but maybe we should rename it to Wiki Community/Community Activities so that it doesn't get confused with all the general pages listing stuff to do around town. The description could note that these are casual activities open to anyone, started by members of the RocWiki community. —RachelBlumenthal
2007-07-23 11:10:07 I agree with Rachel. Cool idea but call it RocWiki Community activities so that people know it's based from RocWiki. —EmilyYang

2009-03-24 09:14:39 Hey Rochester!
Come hula hoop! Wednesdays at Genesee Valley Park (weather permitting of course!)
NEW WINTER MEETING SPOT - Flying Squirrel Community Space 285 Clarissa St. 14608
6-8pm
Do you already hoop? Then come join us! New to hooping? Give it a whirl then!
Hula Hooping is a lot of fun and a great way to get in shape! Hooping has inspired me and I want to help spread it in Rochester! This activity is exploding in popularity in other cities. So fun, simple, and healthy! Bring your own hoop, or I have extras for people to use. Come spin your stress away! Don't be afraid if you think you can't hula hoop! These aren't light, small little kid hoops. They're heavier and bigger, adult sized. I have kid hoops too! Everyone is welcome!
Interested?
For more information about hula hooping in general... www.hooping.org
If you're interested in hooping in Rochester... email RochesterHoops@Gmail.com
(First meeting is April 1st @ 5:30. I'm hoping to gather any current hoopers, as well as reach out to people who've never been exposed to hooping before, or have always wanted to try it. I would love to help you get started or work on some tricks, but this isn't a structured, formal, fitness class. This will be structured like a club, where hoopers of all levels can come together and learn from each other. Missing a meeting or arriving late isn't a problem at all. Come when ever your schedule allows for it!)
2009-05-18 14:48:16 Greetings. I am interested in playing some organized volleyball. I looked into hotshots but its way to much money,esp since i am college student. I was wondering if anybody new of a place where people play volleyball for fun like once a week or so? or could we organize one?
