UPDATE: New Friends in Lakewood
Hello Lakewood! I made a post a little over a week ago about putting together a “new friends” night at one of the bars in Lakewood for people in a similar situation as me (26M looking to make new friends). That post is still up on my profile, so go check it out if you haven’t seen it.
I wanted to provide an update here as I got several DMs and comments asking how it went, and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised with just how well everything turned out! We had a group of 15-20 people show up and everyone to my knowledge had a great time! Towards the end of the evening we were able to take a photo of the group, so I’ve included it on this post to share! Thank you to everyone who showed up and made it a great evening and thank you to Speed Trap for hosting us!
I got several additional requests to join a similar event, but on the weekend. We will likely be going out again Saturday evening next weekend (August 22nd) and we have a groupchat on WhatsApp. If anyone who is not already in the group is interested in being added, send me a DM (ideally those in their 20s/30s).
Edit: Saturday we will be having a cookout in the park followed by Mahall’s if anyone is interested!
