East Coast Park Walk
Meet: Marine Terrace (TE27) Passenger Service Centre
When: Thursday 7 May, 5 pm\*\*
\*\*This is a Rain or Shine event. Please take a good lunch or bring along some snacks if you feel hungry along the way. Our walks are usually between 8 - 12 km long. Just so you know, the weather may be hot but as the sun sets, the weather should be cooler.
Please be punctual. You are encouraged to be slightly early to avoid disappointments. There will be 5 minutes grace for attendance taking. Please remember that we cannot wait because this would be unfair to those already present.
This Meetup group is a community-led group by volunteers. Please extend grace in areas of inadequacy. You are most welcome to give constructive feedback; we strive for improvement!
The 185-hectare (460-acre) East Coast Park is the largest park in Singapore, and is built entirely on [reclaimed land](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reclaimed_land) with a man-made [beach](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beach), where swimming is possible. The beach is protected by [breakwaters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakwater_(structure)).
The cityโs most popular stretch of beach always buzzes with activity โ even when itโs not playing host to the wide spectrum of sporting events that grace its shores regularly, like the Singapore Marathon and Xtreme Championship.
Join us as we walk the East Coast Park! Enjoy the beach, the breeze, the scenery, and each other's company :-))
We will end at the Kallang Wave Mall for dinner :-)
See you there! :-)

Thinking Visually, Together
**About This Event**
Most problems feel messy because we canโt see their structure. In conversation, we often talk past each other - not because we disagree, but because weโre not seeing the same thing.
Visual thinking helps make that thinking visible. With simple sketches, we can surface assumptions, compare perspectives, and work through complexity together โ all without needing any โart skills.โ
Join this hands on workshop to
1\. Learn how to use simple sketches to make ideas\, assumptions\, and trade\-offs visible
2\. Work thru realistic scenarios with others to see how different people frame the same situation
3\. Experience how clearer thinking \-not just better tools \- leads to visual clearer communication \(with a short AI demo\)
***Come ready to sketch to align, make your thinking visible and learn by doing !***

[Brisk Walk] Treetop Hike
Meet: Upper Thomson MRT Control Station
When: Sunday 10th May - 2:30 pm\*
Difficulty: Moderate (uneven terrain, forested area)
\*\*\*This is a 12km BRISK WALK (4km/h) from Upper Thomson to Beauty World via the MacRitchie Reservoir. **This HIKE is not suitable for beginners!** **Only join if you are fit, and able to brisk walk @ 4km/h over uneven terrain.** \*\*\*
\*Please note the starting time. We will walk mainly in the forested areas, so there is a lot of shade from the heat. We will need at least 3 hours for the walk. We start early as the Treetop bridge closes by 4:30 pm.
\*\*This is a Rain or Shine event. Please take a good lunch or bring along some snacks if you feel hungry along the way. Our walks are usually between 8 - 12 km long. Just so you know, the weather may be hot but as the sun sets, the weather should be cooler.
Please be punctual. You are encouraged to be slightly early to avoid disappointments. There will be 5 minutes grace for attendance taking. Please remember that we cannot wait because this would be unfair to those already present.
We will walk from Macritchite Park to the Treetop Walk and onwards to Beauty World via Rifle Range Park. This walk will be of moderate difficulty as there will be a fair amount of climbing and uneven terrain.
The TreeTop Walk is a 250m-long freestanding suspension bridge between the two highest points in the Central Catchment Nature Reserve (MacRitchie), and the first of its kind in Singapore. From the suspension bridge, you may delight in a birdโs eye view of the forest canopy and spot different wildlife in their natural habitat. You can also enjoy panoramic views of the verdant greenery of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve and the placid waters of Upper Peirce Reservoir.
Dinner will be at Beauty World.
See you there! :-)
