Single's Cruise

**Coffee. A Sunday morning. A table of people who get it.** **NoVA Single Parents Village is a new group for single parents in Northern Virginia who want actual community — not advice, not a support group, not a dating app in disguise. Just people navigating the same messy, meaningful reality who could use a few more faces that understand it.** **The first meetup is at Caboose Brewing in Mosaic District. No agenda. No icebreaker games. Show up, grab a drink, and talk to people who know what it’s like to be doing this largely on their own.**

LOCATION CHANGE: In May we are back at Pump House in Rockville! \*\*\* The community-singing event where where everything's made up and the point — to sing for our lives — matters. Our leaders will teach you parts to sing for spontaneously-composed choral pieces. We play a variety of listening/music/singing games, and create safe opportunities for participants to improvise as little or as much as they might like. Good for all skill levels, shower-singers to seasoned pros, no sheet-music-reading required. \*\*\* We usually meet on the second Sunday of the month, and will continue to meet in-person as long as it makes sense. We encourage and provide masks. We will also plan on continuing our Zoom circles from time to time. So please check the day before/day of the meetup each month to confirm date & details. This world needs more song; join in the fun, and be the music you want to hear in the world. Hope to see you there! \~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~ L❤️ving this?

This is the first event of the year where you can rent a canoe or kayak. Scroll down for more information on renting from Prince George's County. Postponing this by a week, so hopefully the forecast is warmer and less breezy. I've adjusted the times so there will still be plenty of water to explore Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens. We'll shove off from Bladensburg Waterfront Park promptly at 1:30pm and head downstream towards Kenilworth, about two miles downstream. We'll do a loop around the wetlands and hopefully see some early blooms and plenty of birds. Once everyone regroups, we'll turn around and paddle back to Bladensburg, arriving before 4pm to accommodate rental returns. This is event is suitable for paddleboards (including iSUPs), recreational/touring kayaks, and canoes, but not inflatable kayaks. Everyone must WEAR, not just bring a USCG-approved life jacket or PFD. **RENTERS** The Prince George's County Parks Department rents single and tandem kayaks or canoes at this launch. You MUST reserve beforehand (several days before a nice weather weekend). Rentals run from 1pm-4pm. We will start paddling at 1:30 and be back at the ramp just before 4. **As a reminder, this group is geared towards paddlers with at least a modest amount of experience.** We do not offer instruction and highly advise against joining any of these events if you have never paddled before.

Calling precious amazing single women without children. Is that you? Then this is for you! Do you find Mother's Day a little tricky? Do you find the fact that churches sometimes prioritize families over singles occasionally disappointing?

A few of the men from the SingleFaith community in partnership with Grace Baptist Church want to celebrate and YOU! You deserve it!

**💝 Real Speed Dating Online with Fort Wayne Locals — Matched by Quiz** On the night, you'll sit down for quick private Zoom rounds with Fort Wayne people compatibility-matched and age-grouped, as a skilled host keeps the pace natural. Right after registering, there is a short quiz about your personality and preferences — your personality profile from that quiz to put the right Fort Wayne singles in front of you, ensuring your matches are intentional and not random. After all the rounds, mutual match details are distributed — only when both people made the same choice — and everything that follows is on your schedule. **Pick your age group and register:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=30-46&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=40-58&face_v=3.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=476.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=collective-of-singles-planning-dinner-parties&ar=55+&face_v=3.0) **⚠️ Confirmation needed:** Clicking rsvp here is not the same as registering, so select your age range link above, fill in the registration, and answer the personality quiz — spots fill quickly so do not leave it too long, and the registration is what actually counts, not the RSVP. --- **This is for you if:** - Someone from the Fort Wayne area leaving behind endless scrolling and zero real dates and are ready for a genuine first impression. - Locals within Fort Wayne leaving behind profiles instead of real people and want actual face-to-face conversation. - Daters living in Fort Wayne moving beyond swiping left and right with no results and want actual face-to-face conversation. - Individuals within Fort Wayne moving on from apps that waste evenings for no return and value real conversation over curated profiles. - Anyone at all from the Fort Wayne area getting away from shallow connections that never lead anywhere and are ready for something that feels natural. **What to expect** 1. **Pick your age group** – through your age range link above, then take the brief personality quiz, because registration and quiz together hold your seat. 2. **Jump on Zoom** – via the Zoom link when the event begins, no Zoom account is needed — just click the link, and everything from that point is handled by the host. 3. **Start the rounds** – private video rounds with compatible Fort Wayne area locals your age, as a dedicated host runs every round from start to finish, because no round here is random — everyone was selected. 4. **Review your matches** – mutual connections are confirmed and sent after the session, as your data only goes to someone who matched you back, and from there you call every shot. **The Basics** - **Where:** All online — from any device you are comfortable with, all tech requirements are camera mic and Wi-Fi, and whichever room suits you best is ideal. - **Host:** An experienced host guides the whole session and makes it genuinely easy, leaving the logistics entirely in their hands — every detail of the evening is managed for you. - **Vibe:** Refreshingly easy short conversations with Fort Wayne singles who are here for the same reason you are, and it never feels forced or awkward. - **Duration:** Most sessions run for an hour to 90 minutes across all rounds, and it rarely feels that long. ⭐ *"Genuinely fun evening — so much more personal than apps"* – Fort Wayne local who came back twice 💡 **Before you join:** clear your background or find a tidy corner, which takes the pressure off in the early rounds, and it is the one small thing that makes the most difference. --- ✨ Done with digital connections that lead nowhere — grab your place above before it goes and we will have you matched and ready whenever you are set. First round nerves always fade fast. 🦋 ✨
