Singles Seated Speed Dating and Twenty Questions Party
Friday, May 18 at 7:00 PM
Professionals in the City invites you to join us for a fast-paced evening of meeting new singles, enjoying great drinks, and non-stop laughter! At this Speed Dating Washington DC event, you'll enjoy speed dating but with a twist!
Here's how it works: when you arrive, you will mix, mingle and then we will seat you. Every few minutes, we will have you rotate and meet someone new. Each time you rotate, we will announce a question that you and your "date" can talk about for those few minutes. We promise that none of the questions are "What's your sign?" or "Do you come here often?" That’s just boring! During this speeddating event, boredom is not an option! We will announce a different question after each rotation. Enjoyment and excitement is the name of the game at this event!
Enjoy a celebration that you will remember all the way into 2013.
