We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/round-rock-tx/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott

**Goal**: Connect with fellow writers looking for social and moral support--and to get at least 1+ hours of solid writing done. **Structure**: 1. We begin with 15-20 minutes of discussion: about writing, what we're working on, who we are. This is just about connecting with each other as people and creators. 2. We finish with 1+ hours of quiet writing time: head's down, at our own pace. Just like if we're at home, only in a public space and with company! **Vibe**: This is a no pressure, no judgement writing group. Unlike many writing groups, there won't be sharing, reading, or critiquing (you are welcome to meet up separately for that purpose). We talk, then we write! **Projects**: Any project (novels, articles, poems, scripts--whatever) at any stage. Many of us cycle through projects, so there's a little bit of everything, every time. Come when you can, stay as long as you want. This is for you, just among friends. :)

**San Gabriel River from Blue Hole Hike & Georgetown Red Poppy Festival** This was a fun event last year - let's do it again! We'll hike about a 5-mile portion of the San Gabriel River Trail. We will meet at 9am on Saturday, April 25th, 2026, at the Blue Hole Park trailhead. (Reference: [https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/texas/san-gabriel-trail](https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/texas/san-gabriel-trail)) The Blue Hole Park trailhead is at the corner of Rock Street & 2nd Street in downtown Georgetown, next to the Encantada Cocina-Cantina (formerly El Monumento). The [Red Poppy Festival](https://visit.georgetown.org/events/red_poppy_festival/index.php) is a fantastic event. After the hike, we can have lunch at Encantada or a food vendor at the festival, then enjoy booths and live music throughout the rest of the day. Also, I have been doing a lot of travel in 2026 and that will continue for a while. I'm looking for one or two more co-organizers who want to schedule local Austin-area hikes for this group, and I'll plan only a few out-of-state hikes this year. If you're interested in being a co-organizer, come on out to this event and let's chat.

# Aquatic Entomology * Saturday, April 25, 2026 * 10:00 AM 11:00 AM * Memorial Park600 North Lee StreetRound Rock, TX, 78664United States [(map)](http://maps.google.com/?q=600%20North%20Lee%20Street%20Round%20Rock,%20TX,%2078664%20United%20States) We often get questions along the lines of “How will I know what fly to use and when?” While there is no shortcut for time and experience, there is a path of study that can prepare you for most destinations: learning to identify your aquatic and terrestrial insects! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn to identify local aquatic insect species, how to properly match your Hill Country hatch, and the part our insects play in fly selection and design. This class is fun for kids and adults alike! If you would like to be part of the sampling, please wear waders and boots! Otherwise, the remainder of class will take place on the bank.
