How it Works
1. Arrive & Check-In
Come to the venue, grab your name tag, your free drink, and settle in. The vibe is relaxed, casual, and fun. No pressure.
2. Meet 15-20 Singles
You’ll have a series of short, 5-minute conversations with other singles in your age group. When the bell rings, you rotate and meet someone new. It's fast, fun, and surprisingly easy.
3. Mark Your matches
After each mini-date, you privately note whether you'd like to connect again. No one sees your answers.
4. Get Your Matches
If the interest is mutual, we'll send you each other's contact information the next day.
That’s it. One evening. Multiple real conversations.
Let The Chemistry Begin!
What Sets Us Apart
1. Start On Time
All events begin and end on time. Being busy professionals ourselves it's vital we respect our attendees time and busy schedule. Common Sense Right?
2. Includes Free Drink
All events include a drink from the bar. Come and sign in early, grab a drink and/or food from the bar, and settle in for a fun and relaxing evening.
3. Our Venues
First, all venues allow for ample room to spread out for private conversations. Second, we choose venues with great food, drinks, and customer service. Finally, all venues are in safe areas with well lit parking lots.
4. Professionally Run
With over 25 years of creating and managing social and fitness events, Carolyn get's it! You will spend 5 minutes with each meet, not 3 minutes one round and 8 minutes the next round.
That’s it. One evening. Multiple real conversations.
Let The Chemistry Begin!

Hi, I'm Carolyn, founder of Boy Meets Girl.
I’ve lived in the Cedar Rapids–Iowa City corridor my entire life and have always loved the community here. Over time, I noticed so many incredible people who were single—not because they wanted to be, but because they didn’t always have the right opportunities to meet.
That’s what inspired me to start Boy Meets Girl. I wanted to create a space where people can meet in a natural, comfortable way and build real connections.
The right connection can happen at any time—you just have to be in the right place at the right time.
Boy Meets Girl is here to help create that place.

Still searching for my "My Right", but this beats the heck out of online dating!

I've been having a blast meeting a lot of different people and the venues are amazing. Haven't met my forever but my dating options are much much better speed dating, and it gets me out of the house.
