A reality TV alum is hosting a singles event in Center City next week built around mini golf and a social mixer.<\/p>\n
Julia Rae, who appeared on “The Bachelor: Listen to Your Heart,” will be at Puttshack Philadelphia on Wednesday, May 6, for a two-hour event aimed at bringing together singles in a more casual setting.<\/p>\n
The event runs from 7 to 9 p.m. and is part of Rae\u2019s dating series, \u201cScore Love,\u201d which uses golf as a way to break the ice and encourage conversation.<\/p>\n
Rae\u2019s interest in the sport grew after she was cast in the golf-themed film \u201cPlaying Through,\u201d based on a true story about two women competing in the 1950s. While preparing for the role, she developed a passion for golf and later met her husband during a round when they were paired together by chance.<\/p>\n
That experience, along with her time on a dating-focused reality show, helped shape the idea behind the series and event.<\/p>\n
During the social mixer, attendees will rotate through mini golf while also having time to meet and mingle. Tickets include a round of golf and a drink, with additional food and beverages available for purchase.<\/p>\n
The event is geared toward singles ages 24 to 40 and encourages an \u201cupscale casual\u201d dress code. Organizers say the mixer is part of a larger content series, and attendees may be filmed during the event.<\/p>\n
