The Jewish Families Meetup Group is a general meetup group for Jewish families in the Tallahassee area, regardless of synagogue affiliation (whether Shomrei, Chabad, Temple Israel or no synagogue at all).  It’s primarily geared toward families with kids, and the meetups will range from playdates to park outings to movies to book readings to arts and crafts to pretty much any sort of activity you can think of.

This is a way for Jewish families and kids to come together and make friends over synagogue lines.  People in the community tend to socialize within their own synagogues – which is great, but with a Jewish community as small as Tallahassee’s, what our community is lacking is a general group for all Jews regardless of affiliation.  It’s a way for us and for our kids to get to know each other–something that we might not need if we lived in a place like Miami or NYC, but something that is needed here, where there are just not that many of us.

 To join the group, all someone has to do is visit the following URL and fill out a short (two questions) questionnaire.
