Rereading the thread, I had a similar thought.

It is a great way to meet people and make friends.

Harris or local politician 's campaign
Hospital/seniors volunteer
Or

Recreation Centers & Program Facilities - place to socialize and meet people

Maybe put that music talent to work:
teach guitar or music to kids
or another hobby

We're just touching the surface of possibilities.
