When I retired and moved here, I spent a lot of time at community events, joined some clubs, and hit up the happening social scenes at places like the bar or bowling alley. From those, I selectively winnowed it down to things that most benefitted me and gave me the most amusement.
Today, I've got tons of local friends and contacts within the community. I am now invited to participate in many social functions and am considered a member of the community.
