What we’re about
Anyone single 40’s (ish) and 50’s looking to meet new friends in a smaller group setting and have a great time doing it. And by "smaller" we mean 250-300 members that attend at least a few events a year. We have stabilized at this goal number now, but we continually get many member requests, so we are pausing on adding new members for now!
Why a smaller group? We are keeping this a smaller group with people that attend at least a few events a year because 1) It is easier to get to know others since you are more likely to see them at future events, 2) it's easier to have a variety of event types when you're not trying to accommodate huge numbers, and 3) you will have better access to events.
NOTICE: *******By signing up for these events, you agree to assume personal responsibility for all risks associated with these "The Single Life - Minnesota Edition" events and release the organizers, [Hedy Lin, Tom Lily, and Amy Zajack], event hosts, and other members of the group, or the venues we meet at, from any liability.***

See all- Japanese Garden and LunchNormandale Japanese Garden, Bloomington , MN
Let's enjoy the beauty as we stroll through the Japanese Gardens at Normandale Community College. There is no cost, but donations are appreciated. Afterwards we will get lunch at Itton Ramen, just a short drive away.
Free parking is available in the College’s Parking Lot 3 next to the Partnership Center, which is located off of Collegeview Road. There are signs from there that lead to the Garden down a sidewalk.
A Local Treasure
The Japanese Garden is a one-of-a-kind gem on Normandale’s campus. Exquisite, serene, and picturesque — the Japanese Garden offers visitors a welcome respite from the stresses of everyday life.Built on land reclaimed from a twenty-acre pond, the garden showcases authentic Japanese features. These include a garden wall and entry gate, a waterfall, two shelters, three islands, three lanterns, four bridges, and a Bentendo — a hexagonal structure common throughout Japan and named for Benten, a goddess of wealth, happiness, wisdom, and music.
