* THIS EVENT IS FOR WOMEN IN THE NEW YORK CITY AREA *
Gals Pals Social Online Speed Friending Event For Women is a revolutionary way to meet new female friends in your area from the comfort of your own home on Zoom.
This is not a dating event... This fun event is for females looking to make new female friends for any of the following reasons...
* Activity Partners
* Enjoying Happy Hours, Dinners and/or Girls' Nights Out Together
* Female Business Networking Connections
* Travel Companions
* Wing Women
* Friendship
At a Gal Pals Social Speed Friending event, our friendly host will welcome everyone and give everyone some fun icebreakers to get started... You'll then be grouped off into Zoom breakout rooms in smaller groups of 3 to 5 where you'll get to meet & chat with the other women in attendance and do the fun icebreakers together.
WHAT KIND OF ICEBREAKER GAMES WILL WE BE PLAYING?
They are fun and simple! Don't worry, you don't need to know how to play anything in particular... The host will explain how each game is played. An example game we like to play is "Match The Group". In this game the host will show you a word followed by a blank. For example: Chicken _________. You'll write down a word that follows the word Chicken such as "Soup". Essentially you're trying to predict what will be a popular answer. We also play an icebreaker game called "Would You Rather" where we ask you fun questions like "Would you rather live the rest of your life without ever being able to watch and movie/TV show or would you rather never be able to listen to any song/music again?". You answer the question and then you have to try and pick the most popular answer. It's so much fun! Another fun game we play is similar to Family Feud (The popular prime time TV show). During this game, you'll be asked fun and easy questions like, "What do you do when you first wake up?". You and your group will try to come up with the most popular answer and then you'll find out if you got the top answer. We do different fun games at each event we throw so you can come on many times and never play the exact same game again!

You're welcome to hop on by yourself or join with friends. About 75% of people sign up by themself so don't worry if you're coming on alone! Our host will make introductions and put you on a team with other people so it's a great way to make new friends. It's a fantastic way to meet new people and we've witnessed countless friendships sparked at this event. In fact, the host gives everyone the opportunity to swap contact info with other people in the group at the end of the night if they'd like to.
If you sign up with friends, the host will make sure to put you on a team with your friends.
* The event host will group you off into teams and you'll be playing as a team against the other groups. You're never put on the spot to come up with answers... you'll be working with your team to answer the questions. You'll answer great trivia questions in all of your favorite categories like pop culture, history, entertainment (music, movies & TV), arts & literature, science and more. The winning team gets a prize!
* If you come on your own you'll be put on a team with others who have also come on their own. If you sign up along with friends we'll be sure to put you and your friends on the same team. (The awesome part about this event is that you'll always be working with your team to come up with answers so you're never put directly on the spot to have to answer anything).
* We have several unique rounds of trivia which keeps it really fun and exciting. Some rounds are like traditional trivia nights (simply answering trivia questions), other rounds are totally unique and change at each event. Sometimes we may show you a series of photos and ask you trivia questions about the photos, other times we play games like "Reverse Family Feud" where you'd have to guess the least popular answers to our question (it's soooo much fun!), or sometimes we'll play a "Find The Common Link" game where you'll have to answer some questions and figure out the common link between all the answers like this:
Question #1: A Tomato Based Dip
Question #2: A High Stakes Scenario Might Be Described As Make-Or-What?
Questions #3: The 2005 Film About Johnny Cash Is "Walk The _________"?
Question #4: What German-Austrian Actor's Breakout Role Came In Quentin Tarantino's Film Inglourious Basterds?
Answers: #1: Salsa #2: Break #3: Line #4: Cristoph Waltz
You and your team would have to first answer the questions and then figure out that the common link between the answers is "Dance".
* QUICK NOTE: THERE ARE LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE FOR THIS EVENT SO SIGN UP ASAP TO MAKE SURE YOU GET A SPOT *
