A community event called Speed Neighboring is being hosted at Blakely Hall, where residents can get to know each other in a speed dating format. Attendees will rotate through a series of short conversations with fellow community members. On arrival, attendees will be given a nametag, two drink tickets, and small bites. The event costs $10 per person, and pre-registration is required. The event is open to anyone over the age of 21.

Attendees are encouraged to dress casually and wear something that signifies their hobbies or interests. Most attendees are expected to be Issaquah Highlands residents, but the event is open to the greater community. However, sales pitches or attempts to gain customers at the event are not allowed.
