Who We Are<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>

Pittsburgh PrimeTimers\u00ae (PPT) is a group of gay\/bisexual men who gather to enjoy the social community and activities in the Pittsburgh area. Our purpose is to provide opportunities to come together in a supportive atmosphere for social, recreational, and educational activities. We welcome you wherever you are in your journey, in a comfortable, non-political environment that respects your privacy. PPT offers a friendly, low-key way to meet others in a relaxed, welcoming environment.<\/span><\/p>
