Gil&#8217;s and Growler Guys are both local community hangout spots where people tend to talk to strangers a bit more than other bars and restaurants. I think it&#8217;s important to know, it just simple takes a little while. It was a year for us.&#8221; &#8212; Gretchen<\/h4>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h4>&#8220;I would recommend putting yourself out there, getting involved in a gym! I would recommend not being shy and going to populated places (even if it means going by yourself). I&#8217;ve gone to Growler Guys a few times alone and have found that it is a great place to meet people. Everyone is friendly and interested in talking. I wish that I would have become more involved in groups like the Southern Oregon Running Enthusiast because I like to run and I think that&#8217;d be a great way to meet people. &#8221; &#8212; Gracie<\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashlandchamber.com\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect1.jpg\" alt=\"connect1\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland Chamber of Commerce<br \/>\n110 East Main Street<br \/>\n(541) 482-3486<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashlandchamber.com\/\">AshlandChamber.com<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashland.or.us\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect2.jpg\" alt=\"connect2\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">City of Ashland<br \/>\n20 East Main Street<br \/>\n(541) 488-5300<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashland.or.us\/\">Ashland.OR.US<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashland.k12.or.us\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect3.jpg\" alt=\"connect3\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland School District<br \/>\n885 Siskiyou Boulevard<br \/>\n(541) 482-2811<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashland.k12.or.us\/\">Ashland.K12.OR.US<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashlandymca.org\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect4.jpg\" alt=\"connect4\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland YMCA<br \/>\n540 YMCA Way<br \/>\n(541) 482-9622<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashlandymca.org\/\">AshlandYMCA.org<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/jcls.org\/ashland\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect5.jpg\" alt=\"connect5\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland Public Library<br \/>\n410 Siskiyou Blvd<br \/>\n(541) 774-6980<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/jcls.org\/ashland\">jcls.org\/ashland<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www2.sou.edu\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect6.jpg\" alt=\"connect6\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Southern Oregon University<br \/>\n1250 Siskiyou Blvd<br \/>\n(541) 552-7672<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www2.sou.edu\/\">www2.SOU.edu<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www2.sou.edu\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect7.jpg\" alt=\"connect7\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Oregon Shakespeare Festival<br \/>\n15 S Pioneer St, Ashland<br \/>\n(541) 482-2111<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www2.sou.edu\/\">OSFAshland.org<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ashlandfood.coop\/\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect8.jpg\" alt=\"connect8\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland Food Coop<br \/>\n237 N 1st St<br \/>\n(541) 482-2237<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ashlandfood.coop\/\">AshlandFood.coop<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashland.or.us\/SectionIndex.asp?SectionID=426\" target=\"_self\" itemprop=\"url\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/southernoregonrelocationguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/connect9.jpg\" alt=\"connect9\" itemprop=\"image\" height=\"200\" width=\"300\"  \/><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Ashland Parks &amp;
