Our neighborhood has someone who visits all new people within a few days of their moving in and invites them to our monthly meeting.

There, all new arrivals are mentioned and, if you are there, you are introduced.

So ask around and see if your neighborhood has meetings - monthly entertainment, men's breakfast, ladies' luncheon - as it's a great way to meet people.

Plus, at this time of year, many sports/social groups have only half their members present and would love new people to join. Our tennis group has thirty people turning up in the winter, but only ten or so in the summer. Look in the weekly guide to find something you like and just turn up to it. May seem daunting, but I think you'd be surprised by the reception you get.
