'Evergreen Games' is back. This one day event is to raise money for the Cure Brain Cancer foundation. There will be open gaming space for everyone to come and play your favourite board games in, and we are planning other events to help raise money for charity, such as a raffle for some great games. A suggested donation of $10 will be charged for entry (children free), after which you can come and go throughout the day. For those new to modern board gaming, we will have volunteers ready to help select and teach new, interesting games from our extensive library of modern board games that will be available to play on the day. The Clyde has a large room to accomodate around 100 people, and a fully-licensed bar and restaurant, so food and drink can be purchased during the day (please do not bring your own food or drink along). Save the date, RSVP and please do spread the word - sharing this event or inviting others is a great way to let them know this is happening, and help make this event a huge success. This annual convention has been established to commemorate the life of a dear friend and gamer Simon "Evergreen" Pearce who enjoyed and gave so much to the hobby, before being taken from all of us far too soon, and to raise money to help fight the cancer that took him from us. Please note that if you are unable to make it down but would still like to make a donation the easiest way to do so is via the memorial page hosted by the charity at https://curebraincancer.org.au/fundraising/in-memory/in-memory-of-simon-pearce-5d15031c

Instead of intense one-on-one chats, you’ll connect in relaxed groups of four - making it easier to find your rhythm, bounce off others, and let conversation flow naturally. Every 15 minutes, we’ll reshuffle the groups at random to keep the energy fresh and the dynamics interesting. After a couple of hours, the structure will drop and anyone who’d like to stay can continue connecting organically. This format is ideal for men who: • Prefer something social and low-pressure • Enjoy group dynamics • Want something structured, but not rigid The event is facilitated by a mental health professional and is designed to feel welcoming and safe. Discrimination and harassment will not be tolerated. If you have accessibility needs, questions, or are experiencing financial hardship, please reach out - we’re happy to chat.

**🥰 Face-to-Face Speed Dating Online for Singles near Columbus** Round by round, you'll sit down for quick private Zoom rounds with Columbus singles paired for compatibility by age and quiz, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural. On completing your sign-up, there is a short quiz about your personality and preferences — the matching data comes from to organise compatible Columbus locals for your session, so every round is informed by more than just looks. When it is all done, mutual matches are shared privately — strictly for mutual matches only — and you connect at whatever pace feels right to you. **Register by age group:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Columbus&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Please note:** This rsvp is not enough to hold your place in the rounds, so complete registration via your age bracket link and finish the short personality quiz — places close once the group is full so sign up early, and skipping either step means your place is not held. --- **This works best for:** - Women and men based in Columbus who have given up on conversations that fizzle before a first date and are ready for something genuine instead. - Members around Columbus finished with matches that fade out before meeting and want to try something that actually works. - First-timers near Columbus done with the app treadmill that goes in circles and are looking for real connection. **The format** 1. **Choose your bracket** – by clicking your age group registration link, then answer the personality questions, because registration and quiz together hold your seat. 2. **Log in** – by opening the Zoom link at the event start, works on any device without requiring a download, and the host takes over from that moment forward. 3. **Speed date** – short Zoom speed dating rounds with Columbus locals in your personality-matched group, while a host ensures every round feels natural, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet. 4. **Find out who matched you** – we reveal mutual matches once the session ends, and your details are only exchanged when the match is mutual, and the follow-up is yours to manage however feels right. ⭐ *"Did not think I would enjoy it but — laughed more than I expected"* – Columbus local, first event --- ✨ Meet Columbus singles from home — register before spots fill and the evening takes care of itself and we will get you all set up. One click and you are on your way. 🌟 ✨

**💗 One-on-One Speed Dating Online for Cincinnati Locals from Home — Live on Zoom** The format means you'll have back-to-back curated Zoom speed rounds with Cincinnati singles your age curated by personality quiz, as a friendly host guides every transition. Ahead of joining, a two-minute quiz captures your personality — your personality data from the quiz to give you a personally matched Cincinnati lineup, so you are not just talking to strangers but to matched locals. When it is all done, we send out mutual matches — so you only hear from someone if they chose you too — and you decide your next step from there. **Click your age bracket to register:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cincinnati&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cincinnati&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cincinnati&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Cincinnati&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Please note:** Rsvping here does not hold your place in the event, so use the link for your age range, complete sign-up, and submit the personality questionnaire — numbers are intentionally limited so register early, and without both steps done your spot is not held. --- **This is for you if:** - Daters across Cincinnati fed up with swiping with nothing to show for it and are ready for a genuine first impression. - Residents in Cincinnati moving beyond shallow connections that never lead anywhere and prefer meeting people in person first. - Daters locally in Cincinnati looking beyond shallow connections that never lead anywhere and are after something more than a swipe can offer. **The Essentials** - **Format:** Hosted in a live Zoom room with personality-matched video rounds, matched thoughtfully by age and personality data throughout. - **Where:** At-home — from your desktop laptop or phone, the only requirement is a device with a camera and internet, and wherever you can focus comfortably is all that is needed. - **Host:** A seasoned host keeps it comfortable and on schedule throughout, so the evening runs without a hitch — all the structure and timing is entirely off your plate. - **Duration:** Usually wraps in around an hour and a half across all rounds, and most people wish it were longer. **How it works** 1. **Pick your age group** – using the link that matches your age bracket, then take the brief personality quiz, because registration closes once spots fill. 2. **Click into Zoom** – through the Zoom link provided after registration, browser-based so no special app is required, and the host introduces everyone and gets the rounds started. 3. **Speed date** – quick private video rounds with Cincinnati area singles in your age range, as the host signals round starts and ends, as the quiz results already did the work of choosing who you meet. 4. **Receive match results** – once the event closes we share mutual match results, since no information is ever shared without mutual agreement from both sides, and then the rest is yours to decide entirely. ⭐ *"Genuinely fun evening — worth every minute of the 90 it took"* – Cincinnati first-timer 💡 **Before you join:** get your lighting sorted ahead of time, so you can be fully present from round one, and once it is done you are completely set for the whole session. --- ✨ Short rounds with real Cincinnati locals — pick your age group and sign up and you are completely set in this round. You might be surprised what one evening can do. 🪷 ✨
