New Twist to Speed Dating
Sunday, November 16, 2003, 11:08:52 PM

From The KCRG-TV9 Cedar Rapids Newsroom

Speed dating in eastern Iowa is about to take on a new twist.

You may recall how we introduced you to the "8-minute dating" concept earlier this year.

Single, young professionals in Cedar Rapids were meeting each other at the first eight-minute dating event in January. The past five events have all been at bars.

But this Thursday, eight-minute dating is going alcohol-free at the Java Room in Marion.

Organizer Susie Hamilton told TV9, “I think the coffeehouse is a more intimate, cozier atmosphere. People really seemed to enjoy talking at the Java Room, so I thought it would be a perfect place for an eight-minute dating event."

The event is for 25 to 35 year old single professionals.

Again, it will be at the Java Room in Marion this Thursday at seven. It costs $35 to sign up. Go to http://www.8minutedating.com for more information.
