Is there an extra cost to participate in CityMoms events?
We offer a number of events throughout the year that are free to attend such as park playdates, hikes, movie premieres, etc. Select events such as dinners out with a group will require individual members to pay ala carte at the establishment. And other select premium events will charge an advanced fee to attend. Costs {if any} will be listed in the calendar of events, and on each event writeup on the member Hive.
Do I need a ticket to attend an event, or can I just show up?
For each event listed in the Hive, members must RSVP through our ticketing system. This informs our hosts you will attend, allows us to prep as needed for the group, and assures you are abiding by our stated member guidelines.
Will I be penalized if I’m not an active member with theCityMoms?
No. We recognize that each member customizes her experience with theCityMoms as she needs, so we do not require a certain amount of activity, attendance, or engagement by individual members.

We do occasionally take photos at CityMoms-sanctioned events that may be shared across our social media channels, newsletter, or website. If you prefer not to be included in photos {or don’t want your child photographed}, simply let the event hostess know.
