**Shut Up & Write Addis Ababa** is your distraction-free space to focus and create. No pressure, no critiques just write. Bring your ideas, laptop, or notebook. Sit down, tune out the noise, and let your words flow. In the heart of Addis Ababa—this is your time to create. 🎯 **RSVP here:** https://forms.gle/obcjw3w7sBz3SQ9h8

Are you new to the tech world? Does "The Cloud" sound like a confusing mystery? Join the **AWS User Group Addis Ababa** for a session designed specifically for **absolute beginners**. We are stripping away the jargon and the complex code to show you how the cloud actually works using simple, real-world stories. **In this session, you will learn:** ✅ **AWS by Analogy:** Why an S3 bucket is like a storage room and a Lambda function is like a barista. ✅ **Meet Your AI Tutor:** Discover **Kiro**, an agentic IDE that lets you build on AWS using plain English. No coding experience? No problem. ✅ **The Architecture Map:** Learn how to "draw" your first app before you ever write a line of code. **Who should attend?** If you have never used AWS, or if you've tried and felt overwhelmed, this event is for you. We are building a community where everyone—from students to non-tech founders—can master the cloud. Come with questions, leave with your first architecture plan. See you there!

Let’s walk the gardens and enjoy what has spring has on display.

Hi ladies. Let's hike the Edward Thomas, Spring Creek, and a little multi-purpose trail - approximately 4 miles. Please bring a water bottle as needed and appropriate shoes. Meet in the Maple Grove Picnic area.

Hi ladies. We will meet in front of the Nature Center and head to the two Observation decks.

Hi ladies. Let's hike the Edward Thomas, Spring Creek, and a little multi-purpose trail - approximately 4 miles so please wear your shoe of choice. Please bring a water bottle as needed and appropriate shoes. Meet in the Maple Grove Picnic area.

We'll hike 3.4 miles on the Killdeer and Yellowlegs Trails - both out and back gravel trails. If we want more mileage we can repeat an out and back. Pace of around 3.5 mph, no one left behind and those who want to go faster sure can! As always optional lunch after. This is the second Metro Park in the lineup for me - with 21 to go (plus more are being added).

**Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in!** **We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind.** **If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward at Prost Beer and Wine Cafe. Www.prostcafe.com**

Hike approx 4.0 miles at approx. 18 minute mile pace. Meet in front of the Nature Center.
