1741 Pub and Grill

<h3>Finding someone can be painful. But board games are always awesome. So what if you combined board games and searching for a partner?</h3>
Picture this: Check out the vibe at 1741 Pub &amp; Grill at Lyman Orchards Golf Club for a night of games and mingling. You sit down for a night of games. A gaming concierge walks you through several games over the course of the night. You play classics you love and discover brand new games you've never heard of, playing each with a different group of fun singles. Explore the menu and nosh on amazing selections of food and drink, from savory entrees to craft beers that pair perfectly with the fun. At the end of the night, you give your gaming concierge a list of the folks you met that you'd like to date and a list of those you met that you'd like to just hang out with as friends. If any two people put down the same name as each other in either column, then your gaming concierge will make sure you get each other's e-mail address and you can coordinate a time to hang out.&nbsp;Best case scenario: You find true love, discover some awesome board games, and make some new friends.&nbsp;Bad case scenario: You accomplish only one of those three things, which is still pretty great.&nbsp;Worst case scenario: There will be alcohol.&nbsp;Thursday, November 5th from 6 PM - 8 PM

Before you decide to buy tickets, a few basics we should cover:1) This event is for men &amp; women, ages 25-39. We also have events for gay men and queer women. And we're hoping to add events to serve even more people in the future! Head over to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.quirkevents.com/connecticut?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0ZygxIS9rhop8I6_umnyDSWsVL2oJ2IE5GBMA8xit-lrDqan46lxa4WWc_aem_h0uws9Qzz9zDmUp_S1-Zxg" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://www.quirkevents.com/connecticut</a>&nbsp;to see what else we have to offer. (If you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, you'll be able to join our mailing list and get notified about future events. Plus, joining our mailing list gets you 50% off your first ticket purchase!)2) To stay up-to-date on everything we have going on at Quirk Events, follow us on Instagram @quirkeventshq!3) Refunds are only available to those who cancel with more than 48 hours' notice, in order to make sure we have enough time to find a replacement for you and keep the event well-populated. (Exceptions will be made for emergency situations on a case-by-case basis). After that, we're blowing the money from your ticket sale on something awesome and nonrefundable.4) If we get to 24 hours before the event and still haven't sold five tickets for each gender, we will cancel the event (and notify you). When we have run this event in the past, tickets have consistently sold very well, so we don't expect this to happen. But we thought we should cover this in case it came up.5) How many games we have and which ones we use will be based in part on how many people attend, so we can't tell you for sure what we'll have right now. But the goal is for all of them to be fun, light, easy-to-learn games. Selection will include games from both the something-you-have-played-before category and the something-you-haven't-played-before category. The games are also chosen because they often tend to spark conversation and leave room for chatting with new people as you play. All games will be group games, meaning you'll get a chance to meet a handful of people with each new round.

Middletown House Concert Series presents

The trio of artists that is The Refugees emerged on the music scene as a verifiably unmatched force of talent, diversity, and experience. Each successful in their own right as a solo artist, Cidny Bullens, Deborah Holland and Wendy Waldman formed their unique and innovative group in 2007 and since that time have been wowing audiences, radio DJs, and music critics alike with their soaring harmonies, indelible musicianship, and unforgettably humorous stage presence.
Individually, The Refugees have logged almost five decades in the industry, with more than twenty solo albums and multiple Grammy Award nominations to their credit, featuring musical styles that blend country, rock, folk, blues and Americana. To describe them as eclectic would be an understatement. These three artists have utilized their intense drive and relentless passions to create an entirely new sound. They have produced four critically acclaimed albums—Unbound, Three, How Far It Goes, and 2024’s gem California. To commemorate The Refugees 20th anniversary, they are releasing a “best of” album that will include several new songs in January 2027.
They continue to tour around the country and together have become a songwriting force sought after by some of music’s top artists and songwriters.Suggested donation: $35

Lyman Orchards Apple Barrel Farm Market

<h3>Buy your holiday gifts and support the next generation of young entrepreneurs!</h3>
The Kids Market is an award-winning program that gives kids the opportunity to experience what it's really like to run their own business. Children ages 5-17 can create a product or service, set up their own booth, interact with customers, take payments and experience the excitement of making their first sales!
<h3>Is your child ready to be a young entrepreneur?</h3>
Their product can be almost anything (except food!) handmade items, store-bought products, games, crafts, services and more. Most importantly, it should be something people want to buy!
This is a chance for kids to take the lead while parents sit back and watch them build valuable skills in entrepreneurship, innovation and leadership.
Children must be able to, with minimal adult help:
<ol><li>Complete their prep work</li><li>Take and fulfill orders and answer customer questions</li><li>Take payment and make change</li></ol>
Parents can assist when needed, and children with disabilities or special needs are welcome to participate with any necessary parental assistance.
Children may not sell goods on behalf of their parents. They must have an active role in the acquisition and/or production of their product.
No fundraisers, MLMs or animals are permitted. No refunds or credits will be given for any reason.

<h3>Coming to shop? Make a day of it!</h3>
You don't have to be a vendor to enjoy the market! Come out and shop the creative products and services from local young entrepreneurs, then make a day of your visit to Lyman Orchards.
While you're here, you can enjoy Pick-Your-Own and stop by the Apple Barrel Farm Market for all your favorite Lyman Orchards treats and seasonal goodies.
Bring the whole family and spend the day at Lyman Orchards!
