You could always start with the Red Bar, from 12p-3p on Sundays, followed by kickball at 4pm. You will quickly meet many people in your age range if you are not too shy.

No need to be shy SJ-you know everyone is very friendly.  I know I was excited to discover a sizeable year-round population of 30somethings.  Nothing against the 20 somethings like Miss Kitty or the 40 somethings like Jessifunn, but you know what I mean:rolling:
