Ever walked through a quiet park only to realise you’re standing above a buried British fort—one that’s currently undergoing upgrading and quietly hidden from view? Or passed by a historic bungalow that commemorates Albert Einstein’s visit to Singapore, marking his meeting with a Jewish philanthropist that helped shape the future of higher education? This evening journey begins in a tranquil seaside park where history lies just beneath our feet—though parts of the original fort site are currently closed for enhancement works, we’ll still pass through the area via open paths. From there, we ease into a breezy coastal stretch framed by open skies. As the sun dips, we follow the waterfront along a peaceful bay—often alive with kayaks, dragon boats, and the rhythmic splash of paddles from a nearby water sporting arena. This is a free community walk, led by volunteers who enjoy the Great Outdoors (GO) and would like to share them with u too! 🤎✌️😃 The route is about 6-8km. Kindly RSVP responsibly to give others a chance to join. The 'going' list may not necessarily follow a strict sequence. 🔄 To protect your privacy, we do not collect telephone numbers 📵. Communication will be through the Event Chat. Kindly check for any updates, especially on the day of the event. The route may be amended or the hike postponed in the event of inclement weather, for the safety of our walkers. 🚶🚶‍♂️ \*Disclaimer: By joining this walk, you assume responsibility for your own safety and well-being 🚸, and will not hold the organizers/hosts liable for any loss or injury or other unforeseen events, ensuring a shared commitment to a safe and enjoyable experience for all. 😊 Thank you. 🙏

Hi members, ready to explore some lesser known places? Or check out some of those lovely lush grasslands, shaded forests, nature trails with flowing streams and spectacular lake views that we used to do some time back? How about taking photos at a picturesque waterfall & enjoy the experience? For some me-time, one of the quiet unknown hikes that I used to do years back hidden in the lesser known part of Mandai and Woodlands offers some breathtaking views especially in the early morning when it is misty and is an ideal place for all who love nature and 'forest-bathing'. Enjoy the sounds of the chirping birds, the rustling flow of the meandering streams, memories of forgotten kampongs and farms, shaded canopies, the reflection of the lake etc. These will be our morning workout hike in nature. **Total distance : 10 km** (Woodlands South PCN to Mandai Waterfall & Mandai Boardwalk) So let's all get our hiking boots ready and check out these beautiful tranquil nature trails again that offers some amazing lookouts! To have an idea of what we'll be doing and some of the lovely places that we're gonna take you to, check out some of the photos below. **Note:** As we have **LIMITED SLOTS,** this Event is reserved for TLC & SG Hiking members only.

A session on using Claude Code, Anthropic's AI coding agent, in real Unity development. We'll cover what coding agents are, where Claude Code fits, and how to apply it to an actual game project.
