Speed Dating at The Center, Long Beach

Approximately 20 men and 20 women took part in the Valentine’s Weekend Gay and Lesbian Speed Dating event at The Center Long Beach on February 12 and 13. Some may have found love, while others made a new friend or two, but all agreed it was a lot of fun. Based on the success of the event and the positive feedback we received, additional speed dating events will be held at The Center, Long Beach soon! Thanks to all who attended!
