Morongo Basin singles are invited to participate in two speed-dating events, to be held in Palm Desert. Speed-dating is a match-making event in which participants meet up to 14 people, one person at a time, for a short conversation. After the speed-date night, those people who indicated an interest in meeting again are given each other’s contact information. A speed-dating night will be held 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, February 28, for singles aged 40 to 50; for singles age 22 to 34, a speed-dating night will be held 7 p.m. March 8. Both events will be held at Fix, A Dessert Lounge, 73580 El Paseo. The cost is $39 and the deadline to register is February 20. For more information, see http://www.pre-dating.com/iemp.
