ATTENDING SINGLES EVENTS ARE A GREAT WAY TO MEET NEW PEOPLE

Fish In The Sea® events are described by some to be like private parties hosted by friends. Fish In The Sea® events are specifically designed to facilitate interaction among guests.

Our goal is for attendees to get to know one another in a casual environment -- mixing it up with our original brand of party games. Most of our events employ our unique Beneath The Surface IcebreakersSM.  For example, at one of our January events, the icebreaker was What Resolutions I Made And Already Broke Even Though January Is Not Quite Over YetSM.  At a St. Patrick's Day party that we hosted, one of the icebreakers was Name Everything Green...SM, where our guests showed off their creativity by naming things from The Beanstalk (as in Jack and The Bean Stalk) and Mr. Greenjeans (from Captain Kangaroo) to that wonderful piece of music Greensleeves and that comedic tv show Green Acres.

Other events employ our Ultimate FishingSM mixers. For example, one of our mixers was Flags of the WorldSM, where each attendee was given a flag from a country that contains Red, White &/or Blue and had to locate his or her counterpart with the same flag. Participants really enjoyed this mixer, as it gave people the perfect excuse to meet and maybe make that extra special love-connection.

Other events we host are held after-work for professionals interested in mixing business and pleasure. Our Singles Business NetworkSM events generally draw a nice mix of professionals -- from models, artists and entertainers to lawyers, medical professionals and bankers.  This format takes the pressure off and ultimately is a win-win, as people know that that even if they don't make a love connection, they may make a valuable business connection. At these events, we either invite up to four attendees to give a few minute presentation about their business or have outside speakers.  For example, at one of our events we had two great speakers, who lectured briefly on Financial Issues for Singles (no one ever said you should wait until you get married to start your 401K!).

New Amsterdam Ventures, LLC, which hosts Fish In The Sea® events provides at least 5% from the registrations from each event to one or more charities. Among the charities that we have supported in the past are The Elephant Sanctuary; American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (also known as the ASPCA); Family Dynamics, a charity whose goal it is to prevent child abuse and neglect in Brooklyn; and American Cancer Society.

With multiple types of events to choose from, Fish In The Sea® has an event for everyone: Singles Business NetworkSM, Wonderful Weekday SeriesSM, Saturday Singles SeriesSM, Boomers SeriesSM, Seniors SeriesSM and Just Jewish SeriesSM. There are also Sea-Change Special EventsSM.

Currently we are hosting events in New York City where our home office is located, but we plan to expand to other areas soon. Visit www.FishInTheSea.com for more information about our upcoming events.
