You're guaranteed to meet at least 10 new friends! Oh YEAH! Come join me this afternoon to take in the buzz of the pre-game show, grab some hot bar food, and watch the 49ers take on the Vikings with a lively crowd. We will kick things off with about an hour of quick 1-1s to break the ice, and then we will group up with our favorite people to secure a table for kickoff. We are going to spend the first chunk of the afternoon chatting one-on-one with other fans. The Gist IRL app takes the guesswork out by matching you up, giving us an easy way to talk football, trade predictions, and see who we really click with. Once the rounds wrap up, the best part starts. You get to pick the folks you had the best time chatting with and team up. We will grab a table together, order up some drinks and game-day snacks, and settle in to watch the game. By kickoff, you're sitting with an energized group of fellow fans to cheer on every play together. Whether this turns into your regular Sunday football watch crew or just an awesome afternoon of high-fives and touchdowns, it is going to be a blast. The Plan: - 4:00 PM: Check-In. Follow the link to set up your quick profile on your phone to get started. - 4:05 PM - 5:25 PM: One-on-One Rounds. The app pairs you for focused chats. Find out who shares your game-day superstitions, fantasy football takes, and love for the Niners. - 5:25 PM+: Form Groups. Reconnect with your favorite matches to form a squad of 4-6. Together, you will grab a table, order food and drinks, and settle in for kickoff together. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/WxizruzDuOxmxNyEIMJF **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

Lake Merritt Loop: East Bay Morning Walk + Coffee ☕🌳

Hey hey, so thought it be dope to start a Saturday with an easy loop around Lake Merritt and some good company.

These walks are just as fun with 5 people as with 25, no awkward standing around, just moving and chatting. 🐕 Dog friendly 👟 All fitness levels welcome, walkers and joggers mix just fine ⏱️ About 2 to 3 miles, 1.5 hours total including the coffee hang 🅿️ Free parking nearby, and walk ups are always welcome RSVP so we have a rough headcount.

An Evening with Noah Siegel: When Primates Go Full Forager Mode

**\*\*Register [here](https://forms.gle/khFPU5JZiwGxfKi5A), NOT on Meetup:** [https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule](https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule)[**](https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule**) **Register [HERE](http://[https//www.forkinthepath.org/registration-noah-talk%5D(https://www.forkinthepath.org/registration-noah-talk) "\[https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule\](https://www.forkinthepath.org/schedule)")** Join Noah Siegel, Co-Author of California Guidebook, "Mushrooms of the Redwood Coast," in San Francisco for "Mycophagy in the Miombo: When Primates Go Full Forager Mode." Learn what mushrooms monkeys have been foraging in Tanzania. ***Mycophagy in the Miombo: When Primates Go Full Forager Mode*** Mycophagy is a widespread yet understudied component of primate foraging ecology, with roughly one quarter of primate species known to consume fungi. Despite this prevalence, little is understood about which fungal species primates target, the nutritional benefits they obtain, or the mechanisms by which they identify edible versus toxic taxa. In this talk, we will explore western Tanzania, and the ecological significance of fungal consumption by Chimpanzee, Yellow Baboon, and Red‑tailed Monkey, where fungi contribute approximately 4% of chimpanzee and red‑tailed monkey diets and 17% of baboon diets! November 12th, 6:30-8pm, in San Francisco All registrations must be completed on our website [here](http://[https//www.forkinthepath.org/registration-noah-talk%5D(https://www.forkinthepath.org/registration-noah-talk) "\[https://www.forkinthepath.org/registration-mushroom-farm-tour\](https://www.forkinthepath.org/registration-mushroom-farm-tour)") **About Fork In The Path** Fork In The Path offers transformational foraging experiences in California for the adventurous of all ages.

Julia Morgan in Piedmont

Julia Morgan designed about twenty houses in Piedmont. Eleven of these can be incorporated into a walking tour. One of the houses was created from a watercolor of a very old English school the client had attended near London. See the main photo of the house in Piedmont and the water color here. And we'll get a chance to make the comparison. Plus, we'll stop by the location of the first brown shingle house in the Bay Area. Rev. Worcester's house from 1876. Maximum distance will be between 3 to 4 miles with uphills. Wear sturdy footwear. Sunscreen advised. Dress in layers. Bring water. (I'm working on finding a great, everyday, locals' favorite restaurant, not too far from the tour. If you have one of your own, please let me know, as an option for lunch.)
