BroClub was created to solve a common problem we experience in our late 20's. You may be new in town or your buddies may have relocated, married, or vanished off the face of the earth.

The goal is to form a core group of like-minded bro's that are looking to build new friendships in Chicago. We aim to do at least one event per week. This g …

Even in 1,000+ member groups there are very few people whom you really get to know as good friends. The problem is that most groups are open to anyone, so you end up with a large group, low participation, a lot of "no shows", and a bunch of people with nothing in common. This is a group of awesome desis out of Chicago & suburbs and it is intended to be exclusive. It is a smaller tight knit group making it easier to make friends not just acquaintances and intended to build genuine long lasting f …

Without the initial help & suggestions and input of the original members this group would not be what it is today. Many thanks should go to them and to Liz & Sheila who stayed focus o …
