How do I meet people in Dominican Rep?

When we asked people living in Dominican Rep about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"First thing I do in any place is look for the Expat hangouts and sit and chat. I also look for a country/area specific website to make acquaintances. Works for me and I now have parties on 4th of July, US Thanksgiving and Easter Sunday to gather all the expats I can. I get from 125 to 175 people at my events 3 times a year. Great place for networking and making friends and getting to know your new country," commented one expat who made the move to Sosua, Dominican Rep.
