Join Us for a Morning Swim at Humboldthain Outdoor Pool! Hey everyone, We are doing another relaxed swim meet-up at Humboldthain outdoor swimming pool, and I'd love for you to join! We'll be gathering for a casual 30-minute swim - nothing competitive, just a chance to enjoy the water and start the day on a refreshing note. Afterwards, if you're up for it, we can go to a nearby cafe for a coffee and chat, but no pressure - totally optional! 📝 **Bring** - ID/passport (mandatory, checked by the pool staff) !!! - swimsuit - towel - 1 Euro coin (for a locker) - ticket is around €5.50 (buy online or at the pool) **RSVP** Please un-RSVP ❌ if you cannot come! Otherwise we would unnecessarily wait for people to never show up. 📍**Where** At the pool entrance (see the map pin) and wait for 15 min for people to gather. You need to enter Humboldthain park. 🎟 **Pool tickets** [https://www.berlinerbaeder.de/baeder/detail/sommerbad-humboldthain/](https://www.berlinerbaeder.de/baeder/detail/sommerbad-humboldthain/) ☕ **Coffee** A wonderful coffee shop a few minutes away from the pool [https://maps.app.goo.gl/os3WHTSfYzbDyKQh7?g_st=ac](https://maps.app.goo.gl/os3WHTSfYzbDyKQh7?g_st=ac) Looking forward to seeing you there!

Join our Backgammon Meetup to play, socialize, and enjoy this classic game! Everyone’s welcome! Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced player. Expect fun, friendly games, laughter, and new friends. With the nice weather and the beautiful lakeside setting, it’s a perfect place to enjoy a few games and spend time together. Hopefully we can make the most of a sunny summer afternoon! ☀️🎲⛲️🍻🌳 👉 Please RSVP only if you plan to attend. 👉 Bring your own set if you have one. **How to Play (Quick Guide):** - Each player has 15 checkers and moves them toward their home board. - Dice rolls decide how many spaces you can move. - Land on an opponent’s single checker to send it to the bar. - Once all your checkers are home, start bearing off (removing them). - First to remove all checkers wins! **Fun Fact:** The Origin of Backgammon: Backgammon is one of the oldest known board games, with roots deeply embedded in the ancient civilisations of Mesopotamia. But it is in Persia, where the game truly flourished and evolved into what we now know as 'Takhte Nard'. Archaeological findings suggest that early forms of backgammon were played in Iran over 5,000 years ago. Artifacts such as game boards and dice have been discovered in sites like 'Shahr-e Sukhteh' (The Burnt City), indicating the game’s ancient origins.

Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin. We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.

If the weather is great, swimming is a must. Depending on you, we would either go for the tour around in Müggelsee with dips in the Kleiner Müggelsee and Strandbad Müggelsee or we turn to Erkner and can go towards the direction of Kagel. There are several lakes on the way and according to Komoot, the bike path through the forres has been newly renovated. We would then pick a nice spot for a picknik break and would go back to Erkner to leave for home. Time schedules are just indications. The Müggelsee round is a relaxed 2,5 hours, the other is unknown. Please bring your skates, protectors, sufficient water and maybe some first aid equipment with you. Of course swimming gear.

Hosted by Bespectacled, it's a short-form improv jam by and for FLINTA\* folks! We'll pick some improv games in a range of difficulties, and if you want to play, just sign up. For this night, we're asking all the amazing cis-gender men in our community to give space through absence. We aim to create an atmosphere where both first-timers can feel comfortable and supported getting on stage, and more experienced performers can get some fun practice. Doors: 19:30, Jam: 20:00 Tickets are free, but limited in number, get yours in advance to avoid disappointment: [https://www.improvworksberlin.com/shows](https://www.improvworksberlin.com/shows)

🦩 The Lab of Dreams – Summer Solstice Gathering🦩☀️ My definition of a dreamer is simple: A dreamer is someone who is grounded in reality and still believes that dreams can come true. And goes towards them. The Lab of Dreams is a space for curious minds and open hearts—a place where we will explore dreams, aspirations, goals, intentions and possibilities together. On the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, we gather to celebrate light, growth, and the courage to imagine what is possible. Through playfulness and reflection, we will explore: ✨ What dreams are alive within us right now ✨ What wants to grow and be expressed ✨ What possibilities are waiting for our attention ✨ What small next step feels aligned and inspiring Bring your curiosity and openness and let's enter the Lab of Dreams together. 🦩To ensure each person and their dream receive proper attention, sessions will be limited to a maximum of 4–6 participants. 🦩If you resonate with this space and feel curious to explore, connect and have some fun together, you are warmly welcome ✨ 🦩Duration: Approximately 2.5–3 hours, or maybe more depending on the number of participants. Afterwards, feel free to stay for tea, snacks & socializing for another 1–2 hours :) 🦩Where?
