We will also have ice breaker games for a chance to win the door prize!
This idea first stemmed from repeatedly hearing from people that they’re looking to build new friendships, but aren’t sure where to start as adults. With so many new people coming to Cochrane, we see the need and interest for this type of event even more.
YES! Most people do tend to come alone to these events, but you’re welcome to come with a friend – you’ll just have some time to chat with them too.
