We get together for fun and unique events including trivia nights, visiting museums, art galleries, classes, wine tastings, music, social mixers, parties, theater, walking tours, scavenger hunts, and more.
Our events are casual and fun with plenty of opportunity for socializing. Anyone can join. Most of our members are single, but it is not a requirement. If your plans change, all we ask is that you please update your RSVP's at least 24 hours before an event.
