Date & Dash

Have things been a little pokey in the love dept.? Join us for DATE & DASH, a Chicago-based dating service! At Date and Dash events, ladies sit at the tables, and guys move from one woman to the next as soon as a whistle blows.

After each "date," participants circle "yes" or "no" on their cards to indicate if they'd be interested in seeing their "date" again.

A few days later, participants receive an e-mail connecting them with their "yes" matches...

Spaces are limited, so sign up today!
