Hi Laurel,
This could be perfect for you, The Newcomers Club of Reno/Sparks.
Although it is not specifically for singles, I'm sure many of the 800
members will be. It is a "non-profit organization whose objectives are
to welcome newcomers as well as those whose lives are in transition."
http://www.newcomersclubofreno-sparks.org/
As a recent divorcee you definitely qualify as someone in transition.
They have a good range of activities:

The next three are the remainder of what I could find in Reno
(excluding swingers clubs). Perhaps you could give speed dating a go
(the folk there should know of other ways to meet singles) or email
Reno Date Night and enquire about the extra activities they mention.
