Italian Greyhound

**Come join our group of fun and fabulous friends!** **Please note that is a dog friendly event!** We meet and socialize outside on the Whitestone Brewery patio which is completely open to our four-legged friends. If you are looking to make new friends, you have come to the right place. And we offer an opportunity to get in some exercise. The exercise is a bonus and OPTIONAL! We want you to come hang out more than anything. Too cold or too hot or too whatever might keep you from exercising, but please just show up and honor us with your presence. And Whitestone Brewery has offered us Happy Hour pricing for this event! We will meet at 6:30 pm on the patio of Whitestone Brewery to **start our Run/Walk at 6:40 pm**. Please come prepared if you are going to run or walk. It is always important to be hydrated. If you are new to the event, I will make sure you have a "veteran" to run/walk with on the course. See you there, Mike

All libertarians and folks curious about us are welcome to attend. We'll be in a private room at COVER 3 Round Rock. Ask for the host for the Williamson County Libertarian Party.

**IMPORTANT:** Due to construction at our previous meeting location which closed down the parking lot we've temporarily moved the starting location to **Brushy Creek Lake Park**. The relevant information has been updated to reflect this. Join us for our **recurring** scenic **6.6-mile (10.6-km)** evening at the Brushy Creek Regional Trail in Cedar Park! We’ll take a relaxed pace through one of the city’s most beautiful trails. The hike should take about **2 hours**. **ℹ️ Additional info** The purpose of this specific event is to have a recurring way for us to meet relatively easily. I want to make sure that recurring events are a "low effort" commitment, ie you don't have to drive 2 hours to get there. In the future once we have more organizers I plan to have more recurring events scheduled so we can cover a larger area. Also, you may have noticed that **this event has an RSVP limit**. This is done for multiple reasons. Not only to ensure that a large group is not disruptive to the rest of the Austin community on the trail, but also to allow us to prioritize the "meetup" experience for every attendee, as having +60 people may be overwhelming, and ultimately the goal of this group is to build a community, not just a collection of individuals that like a specific trail. **📍 Where to Meet** 2310 Brushy Creek Rd, Cedar Park, TX 78613 Google Maps **exact meeting spot link**: https://maps.app.goo.gl/yAzHpoVQdXXAG3XD8 Route on **AllTrails**: [Will be added in the future] **🅿️ Parking** Parking is available directly at the parking lot close to where we'll meet. There will be enough space for everyone. **ℹ️ Recommendations** * Bring good shoes (Although the terrain isn't challenging and relatively flat) * Pack some water (More than you need, just in case) * Bring a friend! (That's my attempt at a shameless self-promo for the group. Although even if you don't, I am confident that you'll get along great with the people you'll meet at the event!) * A flashlight! Your phone is better than nothing, but a dedicated flashlight would only be of benefit of you as the sun sets! **👍 Good to know** * 🐶 Dog-friendly * 👨‍👩‍👧 Family-friendly * ♿ Wheelchair accessible **Event Etiquette (Important!)** * If you RSVP'd, but are unable to make it, please update your attendance as soon as possible. The attendance limit prevents new people from joining if we're at capacity otherwise. If we notice a pattern of you RSVPing to events and not showing up, you will be kicked from this group. * Please show up on time. We will start right at the indicated event time. This is to respect everyones time. If you're a few minutes late, it should not be an issue as the "intro" to the event may take 15 minutes or so, but we will not delay the start until you get there. * Other than that, I know all of you will help me make this group great for everyone. So thanks in advance for that! **Event itinerary** Below is the general outline of how the events are going to function * Updates since last event * Official introductions of everyone * Icebreaker question * The event itself * After event: * (As needed) Updates for next event(s) * Exchange goodbyes **🙂 I want your feedback!** I am working on making this description as informative as possible, if anything is missing, you have any recommendations or there are errors/mistakes, please reach out to me, thanks!

The Council of Solace is a special meditation where we gather to direct our spiritual energy to help bring about healing and peace to the world. Many people do this as part of a daily practice in service of others and find it to be a personally enriching experience that provides them with a sense of renewal. Please join us as we gather for a noontime meditation each weekday.

Chess, beer and pizza! Can it get any better? Come join us for a fun filled night of casual, social chess. We will provide the boards just bring yourself.

Winning the first million dollars in revenue is the absolute hardest thing for any start-up. And if you're an introverted founder, an engineer who loves getting into the nitty gritty details of each feature, or someone new to selling, building a sales pitch and pipeline may be an even bigger challenge. The goal for early start-ups remains the same -- create momentum and generate revenue. In this class, you’ll learn strategies and techniques that you can start applying today to: * Develop and strengthen your talk track * Generate leads and * win new clients. Some of the exercises require spontaneous thinking (yes, we call on folks) but the panel provides feedback (the goal — constructive ways to improve as well as compliments) so you learn and grow. This may sound hard, but remember, we all improve with “batting practice.” Oh, btw, we’ll also jump into my favorite exercise — how to pitch a CEO cold about your company and win a meeting. Please arrive early as the agenda is packed and we plan to start on time. *Many thanks to our friends at **Station Austin** for sponsoring Founder-Led Sales for Startups.* *Station Austin is the center of gravity for entrepreneurs in Texas.* *They meet the best entrepreneurs in Texas & introduce them to their first investors, employees, mentors, and customers.* *To sign up for a Station Austin coworking membership, [click here](https://capital-factory.officernd.com/signup?office=5d1bcda0dbd6e40010479eec).* **First-timers, please note:** * Capital Factory / Station Austin is in the OMNI building at the intersection of 7th Street and Brazos St. The building has entrances on 3 streets (7th St, Brazos St, and 8th St). You can enter from any street. Do not be surprised to see a hotel inside the building. The elevators are in the middle of the lobby. * Please check the event page for the details on the event room and which floor it is on. The event venue may change depending on the availability and number of people attending, so always check the event page for the correct information. If it is on any floor other than the 1st, please read the note about the elevators below. * The elevators may be confusing for first-timers. Each elevator is marked by an alphabet (A-F) that sticks above the corresponding elevator. Each elevator also has a touch panel to select the floor. Just select the floor you need to go to on any touch panel and it will show on the panel which elevator (A/B/C, etc.) is ready to go up to that floor. Just walk into that elevator and get off where the doors open which will be the floor you selected in the panel earlier. * Feel free to walk in at any time during the event. We understand that people are busy and may be unable to make it to the events in time. * If in doubt, always ask the people at the front desk (on any floor) for help.

Let’s meet up at 6:15 to stretch in the parking lot on the left side of the restaurant then head out at 6:30 for an adorable 2.5 mile walk! Get that blood pumping then back to the Grove for drinks and/or dinner.

We meet at the Cafe at Central Market South! This group is a great opportunity for others who have studied Italian, are studying Italian or who are native speakers to come together for a cheery, chatty hour. All are welcome. And, native speakers are truly appreciated so those of us who are non native speakers can enjoy hearing your beautiful language. We try to meet every Wednesday. Look for us. We are usually a group of four to eight people. Not everyone RSVPs.

Join us for another great presentation and discussion topic by Watson as he reviews the book "Broken Money" by Lyn Alden. [Broken Money: Why Our Financial System Is Failing Us and How We Can Make It Better](https://www.amazon.com/Broken-Money-Financial-System-Failing/dp/B0CG83QBJ6) *Broken Money explores the history of money through the lens of technology. Politics can affect things temporarily and locally, but technology is what drives things forward globally and permanently. The book's goal is for the reader to walk away with a deep understanding of money and monetary history, both in terms of theoretical foundations and in terms of practical implications.* \-\-\-\- From 6:30 - 8:30PM, the Allen R. Baca Center will be our starting point. We will share an educational topic before heading across the street for Bitcoin Happy Hour in historic downtown Round Rock. Some light refreshments will be provided, but you are also welcome to BYOB. We'll also demo some tools and provide opportunities for a little peer to peer circular economy A.K.A. Satoshi Square. The purpose of this group is 2 fold: \*Share knowledge, tools, resources, and benefits of the Bitcoin network for advancing humankind. - Peer to peer networking with other bitcoiners in order to grow adoption by local businesses within our community. Whether you are new to bitcoin or a hardened node runner, if you live in or around Round Rock, this group is for you. Come join us for The Round Rock Bitcoiners meetup!

**This is a wonderful opportunity to get together with Jason and Aja for a nice run/walk followed by lunch and possibly a recovery beverage of your choice!** This is a dog friendly event. We will stay outside on the deck at Red Horn so dogs are welcome! **We will meet at 9:30 for coffee and head out at 10:00**. The route is a beautiful out and back. We will have a turnaround spot at 1.5 miles but anyone needing to turn back sooner is welcome to. And for our overachievers, you will have time to do go an extra mile if you choose. No special shoes required. Bringing water, sunscreen, and a cap/hat is highly recommended. I hope to see you there! Mike

**The world keeps changing. Fast. The question is whether your approach is.** KAA 2026 is where Agile practitioners, leaders, and builders come to work through what's actually hard right now: delivering real value, building trust across teams, and figuring out where AI fits without losing the human system underneath it. This isn't a theory conference. The speakers are doing the work. Our keynote, **Kevin Koym**, has helped over 6,500 entrepreneurs across 42 countries build something real. He founded Tech Ranch Austin. He's seen what stalls people and what moves them. If you're building something, leading something, or still figuring out what comes next, his talk is worth your whole morning. The rest of the lineup covers leadership, product, teams, and technology. Talks and workshops. Practitioners and executives. A room full of people who take this seriously. **If that sounds like your kind of day, purchase tickets here:** [https://www.agileaustin.org/kaa-2026-ticket-info](https://www.agileaustin.org/kaa-2026-ticket-info) Want to see who's speaking first?
