WHY DO THIS AS A PLAY DATE?

Because connection needs a place to start.

Parents deserve a place to play, exhale, and build friendships of their own.

  • Coming alone feels comfortable

    A Play Date host welcomes you, introduces you, and gives every guest a natural place to begin.

  • There is something to do

    Games and prompts create conversation without turning the night into forced networking.

  • Connection can continue

    Leave knowing at least one person you would actually make plans with.

THE PLAY DATE PROMISE

You will not have to make the first hello alone.

MEET A FELLOW PARENT

Hi, I’m Jeremy—a local dad.

I’m also the founder of Fojut Ventures, where I build the infrastructure of connection: real places, shared experiences, and repeated opportunities that help people form relationships and push back against loneliness. I created Play Date to bring that work to families. Each gathering gives kids a natural way to meet other kids and gives parents space to connect, too. We’re starting one event at a time with a simple goal: turn first hellos into familiar faces and help local families build community that lasts. Questions are always welcome before you register.
