Behind The Curtain
"Behind the Curtain" is a
womenâs group built around real conversations and genuine connection. Itâs a place where you can show up as yourself, talk about the things that actually matter, and feel truly heard â without pressure and without judgment.
We intentionally leave work, small talk and our phones at the door, making space instead for honest stories, thoughtful questions and meaningful connection. To keep the space intimate and make sure everyone has room, spots for each gathering are limited.
While each event stands on its own, the hope is that familiar faces will return over time, allowing trust to grow and real friendships to form. Whether you come with something on your heart or simply to hold space for others, youâre welcome here exactly as you are.

ZH3 Hash # 1722: Going Down Down the Rabbit's Hole
**Change in bag drop/meeting location**
Meet outside Simply Theatre Academy,
Gladbachstrasse 119, 8044 ZĂźrich. (Thank you very much, Sloppy Seconds!) Although the map location has a different name, it is the same spot.
https://maps.app.goo.gl/GzaLvSNkJ8mdqUfy6?g_st=ic
Curiouser and curiouser - Just Alice and Saddam are haring (setting the route), so it looks like we're getting lost in Wonderland. Although it's an A to A trail, some points will feel like going down is up and up is down (but there will be a simpler route for our Tweedle Dums). We'll have a mixture of pavement and trails, and just the tip of a forest for all you Queens of Heart, as well as water on trail and some "Drink Me" bottles at a shot stop for the Mad Hashers.
**Where**:
Meeting and bag drop outside Simply Theatre Academy, Gladbachstrasse 119, 8044 ZĂźrich. Although the map location has a different name, it is the same spot. Look for English speakers wearing running gear.
**When:**
We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm.
There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.
**All Welcome:**
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
⢠We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful.
⢠The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun.
⢠'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
⢠The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
⢠There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
⢠**After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards.
**Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?**
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it.
'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.*
We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

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).
Saturday Bonfire Comedy Experience With 2 other groups
if youâre **tired of doing the same boring thing** every weekend, this is your excuse to **do something different.**
This is **not just a comedy show.**
Itâs a full **Saturday night experience** at Shadybowl Speedway â a **BYOB** potluck cookout, **live racing,** a late-night **bonfire**, open mic **comedy under the stars**, and **free camping** if you want to stay the night.
Weâre basically **throwing a party in the middle of nowhere** â about an hour west of Columbus and an hour north of Dayton
### The experience
**Start early with the cookout**
Come out around **4:00 PM** for a potluck-style cookout. Bring something to share, hang out, have a few drinks, and meet people before the night gets rolling.
**Then head into the races**
Racing starts around **7:00â8:00 PM** at Shadybowl.
**Bring a chair** and sit with us in **Turn 4** â best seats in the house. **in front of concrete spots** 58,59 **ask for Chance**
Think **racing isnât your thing?**
Thatâs fine. **Bring something to drink** and come for the atmosphere, the noise, and **the wrecks.**
**Then the real vibe kicks in**
Once the races wind down, we head back to the fire for **Late Night Bonfire Comedy** starting around **11:30 PM**.
This is open mic style, so you might catch comics traveling through, a local favorite, somebody trying stand-up for the first time.
Either way, **youâre getting laughs around a bonfire** with drinks, good people, and nowhere else to be.
**Stay the night if you want**
No rush. No long drive home if you donât want it.
**Free camping on-site** â bring a tent, **sleep in your car,** or just **hang out late by the fire.**
### What to know **Saturday, May 9, 2026**
* **Cookout starts around 4:00 PM**
* **Racing starts around 7:00â8:00 PM**
* **Bonfire comedy starts at 11:30 PM**
* **BYOB, No glass inside the race.**
* **Free camping, Bring a chair**
* **Shadybowl admission is $15 cash only.**
* **Free parking**
### How to reserve your spot
This is a **ticketed group experience**.
A **$5 reservation** helps us organize the night, reduce no-shows, and make sure the people coming are actually coming.
Send **$5 per person**. Send **$20 and i will get your Admission ticket for the races.**
**Venmo preferred / PayPal, Cashapp accepted**
**@WiseUnlimitedLLC $WiseUnlimitedLLC**
Include your **name + event name** in the note.
Links will be posted in the comments.
Be sure to Drop a comment on this post after you RSVP this helps the algorithm.
Come for the cookout. Stay for the races.
Laugh around the fire.
Camp if you want.
Hike Blacklick Woods and The Canopy. Optional lunch after.
**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**
