Making friends can be difficult to do when you get older. You don’t know where to go to meet people and it’s not like you can casually strike up much of a conversation at the bank or at the grocery store. If you are looking for a way to meet new people, consider attending Colorado Springs local events and festivals that are meant for people 50 and older. These events include bingo nights, golf, bridge nights, chess clubs, and more. Here you can mingle with people that are your age and make new friends along the way.
