MINNEAPOLIS, MN (PRWEB) May 11, 2003 -- City Date Connection, a locally owned and operated 'speed dating services company, recently opened its doors to meet the growing demands of single men and women throughout the Twin Cities area. Singles choose to attend unique, organized gatherings based on personal preferences and interests. Immediately following each event, attendees have the opportunity to communicate with one another through a safe, secure online environment hosted by City Date Connection.

City Date Connection will host its first event on May 20th, 2003 at Pracna on Main (St. Anthony Main, Minneapolis). Interested parties can sign up to attend events online (www.citydateconnection.com) or reserve spaces via telephone (952-926-3283). And, unlike other dating companies, City Date Connection will have both an online and offline presence, combining the latest web-based technology with events designed as a prelude to a first date (or dates!).

Spaces at alternative dating events are in high demand, with many singles waiting weeks, even months to attend events. The national trend has quickly established itself in the Twin Cities as a legitimate alternative to more 'traditional ways of meeting others, shaking off stigmas that the only way to meet someone special was to either be set-up by friends or meet them at a bar.

We love meeting new people and introducing people to each other in fun, non-threatening environments," says one of City Date Connections four co-founders, Audrey Benjamin. By hosting events for singles and providing them with easy-to-use methods for communicating after events are over, weve combined the best of fast dating and Match.com into a service thats attractive to both men and woman."
