1. Pack a picnic and head to Dunn Meadow.

3. Attend Salsa Night at Serendipity!

Serendipity, a trendy bar in downtown Bloomington, will let you get close to your date. Learn some new dance moves and something new about your gal/guy. You know what they say about women and men who can dance!

4. Jump off the Quarry.

If you’re looking for an adventurous date this is the one for you. Rooftop Quarry is about a 10-minute drive away from IU. The thrill of jumping off the cliff and into the water-filled quarry below is something you and your date will never forget.

 

5. Kirkwood and CoCo

Around Christmas time downtown Bloomington is lit up with lights hanging from every building. Grab a cup of hot chocolate and enjoy the mesmerizing views.

 

6. Support your Hoosiers!

One thing IU students all have in common is their love for the Hoosiers! So why not take your date to watch a game? Most of the games are free with your student ID and they often give out t-shirts. Every time your date wears that shirt they’ll think of you.
