About us

This group is for lively, personable professionals of varied age groups who still want to have fun, meet interesting people, and believe that the best of life is still ahead!
I'll schedule a variety of interesting activities, some casual after-work-get togethers, and always have time to say hello and meet some positive people. Happy hours, parties, dancing, and other activities will be included.
Events will span various price ranges and interests, so people can pick and choose what appeals to them.
If you have a suggestion for an activity, please let me know!

    As written up in the latest *USA Today, 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.
    Forget awkward speed dating. Forget another night of swiping dating apps. This "hot takes" night makes dating fun again with a room full of people who actually match your energy.
    How it works: Ladies will receive a complimentary drink upon before a 7:30 pm 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 have a minute 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.
