We get together for Sunday brunches, potlucks, Shabbat dinners, dining out, art walks, concerts, museum visits, holiday parties and events, synagogue visits, games and poker nights and other activities where people have a chance to talk to one another. We are open to any activities that you might suggest and are willing to help organize.

In addition to our own events, we allow and encourage members to invite other members to join them in specific interests or activities and are happy to announce the invitations in our newsletter. These activities known as MIMs (Members Inviting Members) can be of any nature - from biking or skiing to hikes or dances - as long as the member acts as the host and coordinates the activity.

We also list events in our newsletter for other Jewish organizations and private individuals that are specifically oriented to singles 40 and over.

We also sell the Chinook and Entertainment (2for1 or up to 50% off) discount coupon books so our members can dine out or use business services and save money.

Most of our members live in the Western Washington State area. But we are happy to have participation from any Jewish person beyond these areas. Please encourage your friends to join and spread the word about our fun events.
