The list of events below focus on ages 40-65 approximately. Some events will be younger – particularly speed dating which is spelled out right in the event’s description. Don’t worry about  who is there – just go and give it a try!

By the way, I don’t run any of these events, I only post them for the event organizers. Please contact them directly for information and registration. And if you know of other events in and around CT, please let me know.
