What we’re about
This group is dedicated to friendly mature singles who want to meet quality people right here in the neighborhood for friendship or romance. The Yin to the Yang so to speak.
How many times have you been at home watching TV thinking "I wish I had someone I can call right now and do something fun?" Well this is the group for you! How many of you are looking for romance or friends that have similar interests as you? Flea markets, dancing, watching sports, fitness events, game nights, seeing a play/movie, volunteering, festivals, live bands, seasonal events, dinner anyone?
How many of you are sick of going through the holidays alone ... again?
This group is a friendly bunch so if it is your first time or you have been with us since the beginning you will be greeted and seated among friends who are at the event for the same reason you are. Stop letting life go by and come on out to meet new friends, maybe more than a friend and/or just have some fun.
A CURRENT picture of yourself is required to join this group it used for no other reason but to identify you at events. Your cooperation is appreciated.
We all want to be In Good Company.
Check the calendar for our next event and I hope to see you there.
