Beachvolley for Beginners at Sportplatz Buchlern ☀️
Hello everyone,
Since there will be sun, I changed the location to Zürich Buchlern. Therefore, we will also get 2 fields :)
During this event, you’ll have the chance to meet new people, play friendly matches and learn the basic techniques, if you wish.
This event is aimed at everyone that has never played before or a long time ago and is not sure to be able to pass the ball properly over the net or to someone. If you think you're comfortable playing, I invite you to join the advanced events of Marius: https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-avsypajv/.
Let's meet on Court 1 and 2 at the Buchlern sports centre in Zurich.
**Tips:**
\- Bring a water bottle \(there’s a drinking fountain next to the courts\)
\- Bring sunscreen/sunglasses/a cap
\- The court can usually be watered\, except in rare cases — so it’s good to bring suitable socks if it’s hot
**A few practical details and participation conditions:**
\- A small contribution is required for court rental and other organisational expenses\, please pay before the event via TWINT at \+41784053495 by **writing your name and date of the event** or cash the day of the event.
\- Please only sign up through Meetup for an easier organisation
\- Please cancel at least 24 hours in advance if you can’t make it\, so others can sign up or I can reschedule the session
\- If you don't cancel and do not show\, please cover your share to keep it fair for everyone\.
**Price per person:** CHF 6.5
**!No shows!**
Lately, there has been quite some no-shows. Therefore, I remind you to please sign out 24 hours before the event if you're not sure to come. So that people in the waiting list can join instead. The court is not free, any no-show means wasted cost. In case of two no-shows, I have no choice but to impeach you from signing up again by excluding you from the group 😣
If you want to join the Whatsapp group for any updates, events and other activities, let me know after the event 😊

walk Altmatt to Wädenswil ending with a classical music concert
**Hike description:**
The hike starts before the train station Altmatt at 11:15
you need to be fit and have good hiking shoes.
The concert begins at 7:00 p.m., so let’s aim to finish the hike 15 min before it starts to have a good place. The last kilometers are along the Zürich lake. If we are late, we can take a bus. If we are too early (and the water not too cold), we can swim,

**More information about the concert**
the concert starts at 19:00 in the Ref. Kirche Wädenswil

It’s free, but donations are very welcome.
**dedicated Whatsapp group**
[WhatsApp-Gruppeneinladung](https://chat.whatsapp.com/HlsJBlVKqd1JSvHrAYZmJI)
**If the hike is not long enough for you:**
The hike start only at 11:15 because I suppose walking 7:30 is already long for a lot of people but, don't hesitate to tell in the whatsapp group if you what to make it longer by starting earlier. The only constraint is to be in Altmatt before 11:15 to join the main group.
**Registration:**
To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity:
[🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V)
If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group)
If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group).
Please sign up only when you are certain!
You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

Open Sharing Circle ✨ (Deutsch)
Open Sharing Circle ✨
Dieser Circle findet auf Deutsch statt.
Wir kommen zusammen, um im Moment präsent zu sein und uns so zu zeigen, wie wir wirklich sind.

Niemand muss etwas teilen, und jede\*r ist willkommen.

Worum geht es?
• Stärkung von Selbstwahrnehmung & Selbstvertrauen

• Aufbau tiefer Beziehungen & Vertrauen
• Menschen auf einer echten, menschlichen Ebene kennenlernen
• Sich frei fühlen, sich authentisch auszudrücken

Teile aus deiner persönlichen Perspektive: deine Erfahrungen, Gedanken, Gefühle und Wahrnehmungen.

Respekt & Vertraulichkeit

Was im Circle geteilt wird, bleibt im Circle.

Eigene Bedürfnisse
Kümmere dich selbst um deine Bedürfnisse (WC, Essen usw.) und respektiere den Gruppenraum.
Raumhalter
Das Organisationsteam wählt Raumhalter, die den Ablauf des Circles unterstützen und darauf achten, dass die Vereinbarungen eingehalten werden.
Der Circle kann bei Bedarf sanft unterbrochen werden.
