  • Little Island Social Walk (50 & Over)

    Little Island Social Walk (50 & Over)

    Liberty Inn, 51 10th Avenue, New York, NY, US

    *TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/little-island-social-walk-50s-over-tickets-1307347604879
    (*Limited # save $5 by using discount code "5" at checkout. This is a prepay event and only way to attend is to get ticket in advance at link above).
    This is the perfect cure for your cabin fever! The temps are going to warm up next weekend and will be the perfect opportunity to go out and meet others your age while also getting some exercise and seeing the beautiful park.
    Our 50 & Over Social Walks are an extremely popular way to make new friends and meet others in a safe and unique setting. This event is very casual and non-awkward + our host will help to make introductions.
    Little Island provides a one-of-a-kind relationship between nature and art—a break from urban life and a connection to spontaneity and joy. It's become NYC's newest and hottest attraction!
    We'll make several stops along the park so that people can take pictures and admire the beautiful views. We'll circle the island a couple of times and then afterwards, we'll continue the walk along the Hudson River.
    During the walk, you will randomly be paired with others in the beginning then rotate at designated times so that you get to meet everyone participating. Afterwards, you're welcome to hang out and exchange contact info with others.
    FAQs:
    Where to meet? Exact meeting location with host contact info will be sent to all paid attendees day of the event.
    How many will attend? We are limiting the # of attendees so that there's enough room for everyone to feel comfortable.
    What if rains? We will email attendees a new date.
    Can I come alone? Yes, about 90% come on their own.
    Ages? 50s & Over. Gender balance is not guaranteed but we usually get a good mix.
    How much? $15-$25 depending upon when you get ticket and spots left.

    *TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT THIS LINK
    https://www.weekenddating.com/event-details.aspx?id=13483#tix

    *Register at the bolded ticket link in the full event description.

    (These sell out quickly so if you'd like participate, please register ASAP. Multiple groups are co-organizing so the RSVP's shown are just a small portion attending. We have a good # registered and we keep the gender ratio even.)

    This is the perfect event to meet singles from the tri-state area - all from the comfort of your own home. Get to meet people online before meeting them in person! You will meet singles via your computer with webcam or smartphone/tablet (strong WiFi connection required if using a phone).

    HOW DOES IT WORK?

    We will break participants into pairs of two, just like we do with traditional speed dating. You will get to speak to each dates for a specified amount of time (typically 4-6 minutes). After the specified number of minutes, the guys will rotate to the next date and the process continues.

    Just like with traditional speed dating, at the end of the event you will be able to let us know who you were interested in. We will send you both mutual matches (you picked them and they picked you) as well as one way matches (they picked you but you did not pick them).

    You are given 20 minutes from the end of the event to let us know who you are interested in and will receive the results the same night (usually within one hour) or the next morning. You will not have to wait 24 hours or more to get your results.

    The minimum number of potential dates will be 5 and the maximum will be about 10. If there are less than 5 members of the opposite sex in attendance, you will get credit for a future virtual event.

    How do I find the Zoom Room?

    After you purchase your ticket, you will get a confirmation appear on your screen along with the Zoom link for you to use to log in.

    Cost? Between $23-$25 depending on how early you register.

    Rsvps on here are not reflective of actual attendance as this is a multi group event.

  • Grand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt (+ After Party)

    Grand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt (+ After Party)

    Grand Central Oyster Bar, 89 E 42nd St, New York, NY, US

    *TO ATTEND GET TICKETS AT - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/grand-central-murder-mystery-scavenger-hunt-tickets-1039615376577
    (This is co-organized by 30+ groups so don't go by RSVPs you see here. We'll have a good # attending. Must prepay to attend.)
    You don’t need any special skills — just a sense of adventure and curiosity! This unique scavenger hunt is all about connecting, uncovering history, exploring Grand Central and solving a mystery.
    Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before!
    How It Works:

    • When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).
    • Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.
    • Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.

    The Theme:
    Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience)
    FAQs:
    Can I come alone? Yes about 90% will attend on their own.
    What's dress code? Wear what you had on at work. It's casual and comfortable.
    What are the ages? 21 and over. We'll have a good mix of ages.
    How much to attend? $25 (goes to $35 as event gets closer).
    Do I have to buy in advance? Yes. Space is limited and this will sell out.
