Ottawa Women's Social Group

My appologies for double booking! I hope you all can make a Thursday night?!

Book club where we can wind down and chat about the current book we are reading.

We may not read the same genre, or at the same speed. Each of us has our preference and style, but we can still get excited over what we have uncovered between those pages, and share what currently inspired us to find that time to get to the next chapter!

Our fall gathering was so successful, that I wanted to do it again! How many took some suggestions and started reading for yourself?

This will be a 4-cycle series, the last Friday of the month. For those of us who are trying to capture some much needed reading time, I'm excited to have this time to share, keep me focused, as well as be inspired with what my lovely ladies are also reading.

IKEA gives us a great space to unwind, have a coffee or glass of wine, dinner or dessert, or just cozy up in comfy chairs!
And if you get inspired by someone's current read, hit up Chapters in the same complex to make it your next read!

Ready to lace up your sneakers and soak up some nature? Join the Ottawa Women's Social Group for a refreshing morning hike through the beautiful South March Highlands Conservation Forest!🚶‍♀️🌳

We’ll tackle an 8.5 km trail with moderate difficulty – think a mix of different terrains, a few uneven paths, and lots of adventure. Our estimated walking time is about 1 hour and 55 minutes, but we’ll be taking a break halfway to rest, refuel, and snap a few fun group photos! 📸

📆Date: Saturday, May 24
⏰Time: 10:30 AM
📌Location: South March Highlands Conservation Forest, Kanata
💲Cost: Free!
🐕Dogs okay, as long as they are friendly

What to bring:

• Your own snacks for our halfway break
• Water to stay hydrated
• Comfortable shoes for uneven ground 👟
• Your best hiking spirit!

This is the perfect chance to get active, enjoy the outdoors, and meet some amazing women. Whether you're a hiking pro or just looking for a fun challenge, we can't wait to see you there!🌈

Let’s hit the trail together! 🍃

we are a full house!
let's hope to do this again in the fall!

In collaboration with our Sisters from SheSetsSail travel group, we present:

Our first 'Me Time' get away for all our lovely ladies that are ready for some time away. No partners, no kids or pets, no extra responsibility. Just some good relaxing and rejuvenating time, AT THE LAKE, in the beautiful regional area close to Mt Tremblant (2hrs from Ottawa)
