Want to enjoy a meal on us? And maybe meet a special someone? Let Dispatch magazine play matchmaker. We're looking for adult applicants of all sexual preferences for DISMATCH, a monthly feature that pairs folks up for a blind date at a local restaurant, and then details the occasion. Of course we hope sparks fly, but we'll cover your experience even if the evening’s a little soggy.

Just like a relationship, participating requires some commitment. You must complete our questionnaire to help us in the matchmaking. Entries will be selected on the originality of answers and available matches. Before the date, we’ll take a quick, flattering photo of you in our studio in the Old Port. Once it is over, we’ll need you to individually debrief with an "Exit" questionnaire. By submitting answers to us, you agree that we can edit and publish them as part of an article in the magazine we write.

By entering, you declare you are at least 21 years of age. You must be available for a date that we set up, agree to attend that date, and be willing to sign our declaration of eligibility and release. We will not provide transportation to or from the date and we will reimburse dinners up to $100. You and your date are responsible for gratuity.

***Employees of Dispatch magazine and/or Down East Enterprise, Inc., and their family members are ineligible.

To apply, please fill out the application below. One recent photo of you is required to complete the application. You will be asked to email your photos at the end of this survey. Any photographs or written material you submit becomes the exclusive property of Dispatch and Down East Enterprise, Inc. Please read our privacy policy here.
