Sarasota News Leader November 8, 2013 Page 104 NEW GROUP ARRIVES ON THE SARASOTA SOCIAL SCENE By Vicki Chatley Contributing Writer Last Friday, Nov. 1, I put on my reporter hat and went in search of a story. What I found was a group of friendly, interesting people — along with some good food and drink, and a very pleasant evening — at the first event of a new singles group, Sarasota Singles Society. So, as noted in a news release, she set about establishing "an elegant … yet comfortable social group that not only helps area singles meet people but develop life-long friendships while enjoying the best in area dining and culture plus fabulous travel opportunities." Sherry Janes, an attractive, charming former interior designer, experienced what many discover on moving to a new area: It can be difficult to meet potential friends and dates. This concept has been successful in other areas, including Chicago, where Janes' friend, Carol Erickson, was president of The Single Gourmet.
