Hyde Park Area Parents is a group for moms and dads who discuss the "fun" of parenthood, plan meet ups, socialize, and create a community for our children. While our kids become friends, we can have conversations. Playdates, story time, parties, lunches, museums, classes, MOMMY/DADDY NIGHTS OUT- just some of the fun meetups in store. Parenting is far from simple, so why not have support from the mom you see at Starbucks or the dad who frequents the same park as you?

I'm interested in meeting other Out (semi/ fully, home/work) Professional, Gay, Black Men (OPGBM). My desire to create this Meet Up group stems primarily from feeling like I'm the only 'OPGBM' on the planet. While it's easy to connect with my caucasion counterparts...in the 10 yrs I've lived in Chicago...I can't say the same about meeting other OPGBMs. I'm a successful, well-educated, ambitous, out, professional, gay, black man. I would love to meet other OPGBMs in the world to discuss music, la …
