Speed Dating & Friending 55+

Wednesday, September 23, 2026 from 11 AM to 1 PM

They say the older you get, the harder it is to make friends (and more). We're here to help!

Speed dating and friending is a social activity where participants have short conversations with multiple people in a limited time. It's all about quickly connecting with others through interesting questions and brief chats. We even give you some topics to start the conversation! Light snacks, water, pens, and note pads will be provided by HCR Manor Care.

Join us at Glenwood YMCA for some controlled mingling. If you wish, stick around afterward to hang out with your new friends from 1 to 2!

Free for members, $5 fee for non-members.
Advance registration required.

For more information, please visit https://www.ymcaerie.org/programs/1152/active-older-adult-aoa-programming/#division_2602 or call 814-868-0867
