Event Description

Singles' Day or Guanggun Jie (Chinese: 光棍节; Guānggùn Jié; which literally means "bare sticks holiday") is a day of celebration for people who are single. The date is chosen for the connection between singles and the number '1'. So hence 11.11 is SINGLES DAY!

The term "双十一" (meaning "Double 11") was copyrighted in China by the Alibaba Group on Dec 28, 2012 under registration numbers 10136470 and 10136420. In Oct 2014, Alibaba threatened legal action against media outlets that accept advertising from competitors that use this term. UNBELIEVABLE - NOW THEY WANT COPYRIGHT LAW TO MEAN SOMETHING!

Anyway,We plan on having some fun and just want the community to know that we are offering our match making services for our friends!

We have had some fun devising some cool games to play with one another during the evening, but we won't pressure anyone into doing anything they don't want to do.

Come along, should be a blast!
