No matter the season, there are always things to do. A snowy hike or a stunning spring walk -- we have breathtaking trips for you to enjoy. You can also join us at some great events in the city including Happy Hours and Scavenger Hunts.
We have been doing this for over 17 years and we are excited to have you! This group is open to all but you’ll find the majority of the groups are in their 20s to 40s.
Don't worry about coming out alone, that's what many do... and you’ll walk away with new friends. You will always have a host to greet you and introduce you to other members at our events.

Check out the newest and "hottest" type of speed dating! Skip the small talk and share your personal opinions on some interesting topics! The idea is to accelerate finding compatibility by being your true authentic self.
How it works: Ladies will receive a complimentary drink upon before a 7pm arrival time. During the speed dating, ladies will sit and men will rotate. At the beginning of each round, there will be a question/topic in which each participant will offer their “hot take” on the subject matter and question posed.
As you sit across from your new potential match, each person will be allotted a 1 minute timed window to offer your personal opinion/viewpoint, and then both participants will have 3 minutes to ask further clarifying questions and have a conversation on the matter in a respectful, light hearted manner.
Your matches will be delivered the next day, and everyone will receive a complimentary after party going on in the same venue until 10 pm.
What To Expect:- New and innovative speed dating concept which accelerates true compatibility
- Ladies receive complimentary drink upon entry before 7pm arrival
- Ages of the speed dating will be eligible singles who are in 20s & 30s
- Complimentary after party with additional singles in the same age range
- Your matches delivered the next day via email or text
As venue is waiving their rental fee, a 1 item minimum spend is for men in food or drink at the venue, and only for ladies who miss their complimentary drink after 7 pm.
Dress code: Dress to impress/business casual.
Please arrive at the starting time of the event so you can settle in, enjoy complimentary billiards, ping pong if the mood strikes you.
