If you are new to the area (like I was a year ago) and you don't want to meet
people through dating services, there are other ways to meet people besides
the singles scene.

You can take fun classes at a local high school or college.  Lots of adults
take fun classes and it's a good way of meeting people.  You can also try
to teach those classes.  I got involved in a volunteer program to teach high
school mathematics and basic engineering and met lots of single people.

I don't know if you can just walk into a racquetball club or tennis court and
play a game with someone, but it's worth a try.  Anybody else made friends
doing this?  I guess it is harder if you're shy, or you think you're not so
good and everyone will beat you :-)

Are there any more Welcome Wagons in the world?  I thought they were supposed
to introduce new people to their neighborhoods?
