Washington DC Gay Career Professionals Dating Event

When you sign up, you complete a short personality quiz — your personality data from the quiz to identify compatible Washington DC gay singles for your rounds, giving the whole evening a better shot at real connection.
Once the rounds are done, contact details for mutual matches are shared — exclusively for mutual selections — and you reach out whenever you are ready.

**Great for:**
- Queer people from around Washington DC moving on from endless swiping with nothing to show for it and want to try something that actually works.
- Queer people within Washington DC moving on from profiles instead of real people and are serious about meeting someone.
- Gay men and women from around Washington DC moving beyond Grindr fatigue and empty match queues and value real conversation over curated profiles.
**What happens**
1. **Select your age range** – by clicking your age group registration link, then answer the personality questions, as the quiz plus registration is what counts.
2. **Get online** – via the link provided when the event is live, no download is needed since it works in any browser, and a friendly host manages everything once you are on.
3. **Enjoy the rounds** – back-to-back private Zoom rounds with Washington DC area gay singles in your age range, while a live host keeps the pace comfortable throughout, as the work of finding compatible gay people was done for you.
4. **See your results** – mutual matches are sent to you privately after the event ends, with non-mutual picks remaining completely private, and the conversation continues on your terms from that point.
**Details**
- **Format:** Private via a live hosted call featuring timed private Zoom rounds, paired by age bracket and quiz results throughout.
- **Where:** No venue required — on any Wi-Fi-connected device, a stable internet connection and a camera is enough, and you can join from your couch or anywhere else that works.
- **Host:** A warm host manages all transitions so you can focus on conversations, leaving the logistics entirely in their hands — every transition and every call to move on is handled.
- **Vibe:** Relaxed private Zoom chats with local Washington DC gay people looking for connection, and you will find it hard to believe this replaced a swipe.
- **Duration:** Around ninety minutes or so overall, and most people wish it were longer.
⭐ *"Really enjoyed it — easier and more fun than I expected"* – Washington DC gay attendee, second event
💡 **Worth knowing:** use headphones if you have them available, which takes the pressure off in the early rounds, and two minutes of sorting this saves the whole session.

Profs & Pints Northern Virginia: Artemis II and Beyond-Door tix. avail.
**Advance ticket sales have ended but plenty of additional tickets remain available at the door.**
[Profs and Pints Northern Virginia](https://www.profsandpints.com/washingtondc) presents: **“Artemis II and Beyond,”** on how the recent space mission fits into long-term plans for the Moon, with Michael J. Neufeld, retired senior curator for the Space History Department of the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum.
[Advance tickets: $13.50 plus sales tax and processing fees. Available at [https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/northern-virginia-artemis-ii-beyond](https://events.ticketleap.com/tickets/profsandpints/northern-virginia-artemis-ii-beyond) .]
NASA’s recent, spectacular Artemis II mission is a sign that the United States is serious about sending humans to the Moon again.
Gain an understanding of how Artemis II fits in both past and planned lunar missions with historian Michael Neufeld, who was lead curator of the Smithsonian’s Destination Moon exhibit. He has taught at Johns Hopkins, Colgate, and other universities, and is the author or editor of nine books dealing with the history of technology.
He’ll start by looking at the aftermath of the Apollo program of a half century ago and why it ended only four years after its first lunar mission. He’ll consider why no lasting lunar programs emerged from major announcements by two presidents, George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush, that astronauts would be going back to the Moon and on to Mars.
His vividly illustrated lecture will then explore how Artemis is a product of a human spaceflight program that has changed dramatically over the past 50 years. We’ll look at how collaboration with Europe, Canada and Japan became integral to the shuttle and International Space Station programs, and how the rise of new commercial space companies such as SpaceX has enabled NASA to buy both space services and space craft.
Both international and commercial partners are involved in the latest Moon efforts, with SpaceX and Blue Origin expected to supply the landers to take astronauts down to a planned base on the Moon’s South Pole. How soon will any of this happen? Probably not as quickly as NASA says, but the specter of a Chinese landing on the Moon by 2030 is one obvious reason to keep things moving along.
We’ll look at the sustainability of the Artemis space program for at least the next decade or so. You’ll emerge from the talk with no doubt that exciting days are ahead for space fans. (Doors: $17, or $15 with a student ID. Listed time is for doors. The talk starts 30 minutes later.)

Meaningful Conversation and Coffee - Northside Social Falls Church
**Join us in Falls Church for conversations that go beyond small talk.**
Higher Grounds – Falls Church is where this growing network of gatherings began: a space for thoughtful, authentic dialogue about what matters most. Whether we’re exploring the nature of happiness, the challenges and possibilities of midlife, spirituality, culture, capitalism, parenting, or the role of art and travel in a meaningful life, every conversation is shaped by the people in the room.
There’s no set leader or rigid agenda—just a shared commitment to listen as much as we speak. We start with brief introductions focused on what makes you *you* (not your LinkedIn bio), then dive straight into whatever is on people’s minds. The direction of each meetup emerges organically, making every event unique.
MANDATORY: PLEASE REVIEW OUR COMMUNITY GUIDELINES IN THE GROUP DESCRIPTION. Everyone is expected to engage in respectful conversations and listen deeply as well as share. We have a zero tolerance policy of sexual harassment and hate speech.
Come ready to share, reflect, and connect with others in Falls Church who are also seeking deeper conversations.

Washington DC Polished Gay Professionals Virtual Meets
**🌻 One-on-One Gay Speed Dating Online connecting Washington DC Gay People**
Throughout the event, you'll have back-to-back focused short video rounds with Washington DC gay people compatibility-matched and age-grouped, while the host manages transitions so you can focus on the person in front of you.
When you sign up, a short matching quiz is included in the process — those details are used to connect you with Washington DC gay singles who fit your profile, so the format works harder than any dating app.
Post-event, match results are sent privately — with no one-sided reach-outs ever happening — and the next move is yours to make at your leisure.
**Choose your age group to get started:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=507.0&productType=onlineSpeedDatingGay&city=Washington%20DC&groupurlname=open-minds-inclusive-gay-social-circle&ar=18-32&face_v=2.0)

**⚠️ Heads up:** Rsvping on meetup does not confirm your spot at the event, so register through your age group link above and complete the personality quiz — spots run out faster than you would expect so register now, and that combination is your actual confirmation.
---
**The Essentials**
- **Format:** Fully hosted on Zoom with personality-matched gay video rounds, compatibility-matched within your age range.
- **Where:** Entirely virtual — on any device with a camera, all you need is Wi-Fi and a webcam, and at home or wherever you are most relaxed is fine.
- **Host:** A friendly host manages all transitions so you can focus on conversations, which means nothing technical or logistical is on your plate — everything from round one to the final match is handled.
- **Vibe:** Comfortable Zoom date rounds with Washington DC gay locals who value a real first impression, and you leave with more energy than you arrived with.
- **Duration:** Around 60 to 90 minutes from beginning to end, and the format keeps things moving.
**This is for you if:**
- Gay residents near Washington DC who have given up on shallow connections that never lead anywhere and want to talk to real gay people tonight.
- Members of the community living in Washington DC who no longer want shallow connections that never lead anywhere and need a better way to meet gay people locally.
- Queer people who live in Washington DC ready to move past matches that fade before you ever actually meet and are serious about meeting someone.
- Queer people locally in Washington DC finished with app conversations that never convert to real dates and prefer structure over ambiguity.
- Gay daters near Washington DC who are tired of profiles instead of real people and are ready for a genuine first impression.
**Step by step**
1. **Get started** – via the link for your age group above, then submit the quick matching questionnaire, as without this your RSVP holds nothing.
2. **Launch Zoom** – at the event start time via your Zoom link, works on any modern device with a camera, and the host takes over from that moment forward.
3. **Have your dates** – short timed video rounds with Washington DC gay singles matched to your personality and age, while the host controls the pace so you can relax, knowing that each gay local was matched to you by age and personality.
4. **Check your results** – we send match results after — mutual picks only, as your data only goes to someone who matched you back, and the next step is entirely in your hands.

Volleyball - B/BB - Quincy Park
If you’ve already learned the basics of volleyball and want to keep improving your skills while having fun, this event is for you!
**Skill Level:** Advanced Beginner (click [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PojSi4qdlRsv1msCHhvpQ43iDc4FfzQwpWCc3kafVMY/mobilebasic) for details).
**Reminders**
1. Attendance: We’ve noticed that the waitlist is growing, so please make sure your name is on the Going list if you plan to play. Our number of nets is limited so this helps avoid too many rotations. If your name is on the list but you don’t show up, it will count as an absence according to Smiley Social rules. Please update your RSVP at least 12 hours in advance if your plans change.
2. Waitlist: The waitlist is not first come first serve. We prioritize regular attendees, and will fill empty spots with new faces closer to the event date.
3. Injuries: Play safely and be mindful of others on the court. Respect positions and avoid risky moves that could lead to injury. If you’re not sure the ball is yours, call it before going for it to avoid collisions.
4. Game Rules: Let’s follow the basic volleyball rules, especially the three-touch rule so we can play properly and improve as a team!

Quads & Doubles Volleyball - Competitive BB+/A
Let's get together to play some competitive quads and doubles volleyball.
**COST**: FREE
**Court Type**: Outdoor grass
**Minimum Skill Requirements**: BB+ (click [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PojSi4qdlRsv1msCHhvpQ43iDc4FfzQwpWCc3kafVMY/mobilebasic) for details)
Attention:
1. This event is **NOT on a first come-first serve** basis and players with higher skill level and players who can bring a net/ball will get priority over others on the wait list.
2. Since skill levels are **self-reported**, some new attendees may not meet the expected level. For doubles, we encourage you to choose a partner you can enjoy the game with, and since this a competitive event, it is okay if you make a strong team and win all the games.
3. Each person must help set up and take down one net, leaving some nets unset for latecomers.
4. Please answer all questions, so it's helpful for us to organize the event.

You can be the best at what you do and still be invisible. If local buyers cannot find you, the phone does not ring.
Marketing Monday Lunch + Learn is a monthly working lunch for Columbus business owners focused on building relationships, local networking, and local marketing. Every kind of local business welcome. No pitch round, no pressure, no upsell.
**This month**
Most local businesses pick one or two places to be visible and call it good. The result is inconsistent calls and a feeling that marketing is not working. We will walk through the three places every local business needs to show up, plus the fourth place most owners ignore that quietly produces the warmest leads.
**What to expect**
Doors open at noon. Order lunch and drinks at the cafe counter or bring your own. You get real conversation with other local owners and a focused marketing lesson. You leave knowing people and with one to three actions to run that week. The room is reserved through 1:30 PM.
**Who this is for**
Any local business owner who wants clearer marketing direction and real local relationships. Service businesses, retail, home services, professional services, online owners building local presence, anyone serious about being part of the Columbus business community.
**Not the right fit if**
You are here to pitch the room or recruit for an MLM.
