SocialBot Events, Alexandria

The planners behind SocialBot Events have a knack for putting together social events to help both long-time residents and newcomers navigate the DC area and meet locals. Many of these events are geared toward singles, such as speed-dating nights, which help people pair up without needing to resort to lines like, "So, do you come here often?" or, "You must have fallen from heaven, because your hair looks wind-blown and you seem confused." But SocialBot's events include activities to help folks make new friends as well, such as the winter day trips. Attendees load up into a bus and spend a day together skiing or snowboarding the slopes of Snowshoe Mountain.
