May 23 | Kismetrix Social — A Hosted Singles Evening at Secret Garden
🎉 **KISMETRIX \| TRUE CONNECTION**
[Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/may-23-kismetrix-social-a-hosted-singles-evening-at-secret-garden-tickets-1988384078304?aff=oddtdtcreator)
**Kismetrix Social — Drinks, Conversation & Connection Under the Sunflowers**
Hosted by KISMETRIX \| True Connection
📍 Secret Garden Bar: 7/60 Fitzroy St, St Kilda VIC 3182
📅 Saturday 23 May 2026
🕖 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM *(venue open late)*
## A SATURDAY NIGHT TO ACTUALLY CONNECT
There's a place in St Kilda where sunflowers hang from the ceiling, the garden feels like a secret you've stumbled into, and the night just slows down a little.
That's where we're hosting Kismetrix Social — our most relaxed evening, designed for singles who want real conversation, good company, and a Saturday night that actually feels like one.
Think less "dating event"… more a Saturday night you'd actually choose to go out for.
## 💫 ABOUT THE EVENT
Tired of dating apps that go nowhere? Over environments that feel forced or awkward? So were we.
KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human — real conversation\, real presence\, genuine connection\.
You'll walk into a room full of people who:
🌻 Are open to meeting others
🌻 Enjoy good conversation and social energy
🌻 Prefer real-life interaction over apps
🌻 Are simply here for a good, intentional night out
Come for a drink. Stay for the vibe. See where the night goes.
## 🌻 THE VIBE
Picture it: warm lighting, hanging sunflowers above your head, the garden buzzing softly around you, and the kind of crowd where it's actually easy to start a conversation.
Expect:
🌻 A welcome drink in your hand within a minute of arriving
🌻 A warm, hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost
🌻 Hosted introductions early in the evening to help conversations get started
🌻 Free-flowing mingling with light support from our hosts throughout the night
🌻 Conversation prompts on each table, if the room needs them
🌻 A relaxed, social crowd of intentional singles
No rotations. No forced formats. No hookup-bar energy. Just a thoughtfully designed night under the sunflowers, with people who actually want to meet someone.
## 👥 AGE GUIDE: 28–45
Kismetrix Social is open to all singles who care about meaningful connection. We provide an age guide so you know what to expect — most of our guests will fall within this range.
The focus of our events is intentional people, not strict age groups. If you're slightly outside this range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book.
## 🎯 WHO THIS NIGHT IS FOR
This event is for singles who:
🌻 Prefer a relaxed, social way to meet people
🌻 Enjoy conversation without forced formats
🌻 Want something more grounded than the apps
🌻 Appreciate good venues, good drinks, good company
🌻 Are open, friendly, and easy-going
Come solo or with a friend — most people come solo. You'll be in good company.
## 🍽️ FOOD & DRINKS
Your ticket includes a welcome drink on arrival.
Secret Garden has a great food and drinks menu throughout the night, available directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it — and many of our guests do.
## 🎟 TICKETS
🌻 Early-Bird — $39
🌻 Bring-a-Friend Early-Bird — $35 each (paired bookings only)
🌻 General — $45
🌻 Last Minute— $55
Welcome drink included at every tier. Tickets are limited to maintain a comfortable, social atmosphere — early booking is recommended.
## 💡 WHY PEOPLE LOVE KISMETRIX EVENTS
🌻 No swiping. No apps. Just real people
🌻 No awkward formats or forced interactions
🌻 Thoughtful structure without rigidity
🌻 A genuinely enjoyable night — even if you come solo
🌻 Hosted by people who actually care about how the night feels
Many guests come "just for a drink"… and end up staying all night.
## ✨ WHERE KISMETRIX SOCIAL FITS
Kismetrix Social is our most accessible event — a relaxed, hosted evening for singles who want real connection without the structure of our Elevated Evenings or the formality of our Dinners.
It's the easiest way to experience how we do things, and many guests go on to join our other events from here.
## 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES
🌻 This is a hosted social experience — not speed dating
🌻 A welcome drink is included; additional drinks and food are available at the venue
🌻 Participation in introductions is always optional
🌻 Respect, boundaries, and good energy are essential
🌻 Tickets are non-refundable but transferable

**🚙 Carpooling Makes It Happen**
At Social Hikes Australia, carpooling is a big part of what makes our hikes possible. Every extra seat means another person gets to join. Fewer cars, easier logistics, and a more social, fun start to the day.
Carpooling is also a great way to meet people before the hike even begins, share a few laughs, get to know each other, and arrive together. It’s simple, social, and one of the best parts of the experience 🌿
💡 Carpool tickets are offered at a discounted price to encourage drivers to offer seats and make the hikes accessible for everyone.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
👉 **For Drivers**
If you’ve got spare seats, offering a lift makes a big difference. It helps others join, reduces parking stress and makes the ride more enjoyable from the start.
👉 **For Passengers**
Passengers are to contact drivers directly using the details provided in the carpool sheet (linked at the top of the description). The sheet shows information from carpooler tickets (Drivers Offering Seats).
✨ **Best practice:** Try to organise your ride before purchasing a ticket to avoid last-minute stress.
**Please note:** Drivers and passengers should stick to the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion.
If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with.
⚠️ **Important Notes**
* Please stick with the carpool arrangement you agree on.
* Avoid swapping drivers unless everyone is clearly informed and agrees.
* Petrol, parking, and other costs are not included in the ticket price. These should be agreed directly between the driver and passengers.
* Social Hikes Australia is not responsible for any issues with private carpool arrangements.
📍 **Pick-Up Info**
Drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations, such as major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne.
For this hike, **the nearest station to the trail i**s [Pakenham](https://maps.app.goo.gl/QcwJAMKQJXzxTQWz9 "https://maps.app.goo.gl/QcwJAMKQJXzxTQWz9"), though drivers choose whichever spot is most convenient for them. Passengers can then join from those locations.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**🤩 Why Join?**
🌟 Make new friends in a relaxed, casual way.
🌟Enjoy nature and fresh air while meeting like-minded people your age
🌟Friendly vibes full of laughs, chats and good times guaranteed
🌟You never know. Today’s hiking buddy could be tomorrow’s uni mate, housemate, or travel buddy!
🌟Your safety is our priority. Equipped with a first aid kit on hand.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
🎟️ **Tickets:**

\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-

📌 **How It Works:**
After purchasing your ticket, you’ll receive a link to our private Instagram group chat.
All final details will be shared there: Hike route, meet-up location and any last-minute updates.
Friendly pace, friendly faces! This hike is intentionally slow–medium so everyone can enjoy and chat along the way.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
🍽️ **Food Arrangement**
After our hike, we love keeping the good vibes rolling with a meal together. We’ll suggest a café or restaurant that’s usually on the way back toward the city,y so it’s easy for everyone and avoids extra driving.
It’s always a highlight of the day swapping stories from the trail, sharing laughs, and getting to know your fellow hikers even better over some good food.
Joining is optional, but most people stick around because it’s such a fun way to finish the adventure. Everyone just covers their own meal, and we’ll confirm the spot in the Instagram group chat on the day.
When booking, you’ll be asked if you’d like to join: Yes / No / Not Sure. The organisers will confirm the restaurant or bar on the day, based on feedback.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**⚠️ Important:**
Must be 18+ years old to attend.
Hike at your own risk. You are responsible for your own safety and belongings.
Respectful, kind behaviour is a must. We are a positive and welcoming community.
Zero tolerance for any unwelcome behaviour. We’re here to have fun, together!
For this hike, we recommend that all participants download the AllTrails app before the event. This will help you:
* View the trail map in advance
* Track your progress during the hike
* Stay on course in case you get separated from the group
Having AllTrails ensures everyone can enjoy the hike safely and confidently.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-

**🌧 Rain Policy**
If the forecast shows over 15 mm in 6 hours or 20+ mm during the day, we may postpone or adjust the hike to keep things safe and enjoyable. Slippery trails, flooding, and poor visibility are no fun or safe.

**Abstract**
Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod.

Short North Street Skate | Weekly Rollout
Short North Street Skates return Saturday, April 4 and we’re excited to get back rolling together.
These weekly rollouts are a chance to move through the city as a group, build community, and create more visibility for skating and small-wheeled movement in Columbus.
Details:
Meet: 1160 N High St
9:30 AM meet
10:00 AM rollout
All wheels welcome
We’ll be skating through the Short North and surrounding areas at a steady, social pace. Routes will use a mix of streets and bike lanes, so comfort navigating the city is helpful, but you don’t need to be an expert.
If you’ve been meaning to come out, this is a great place to start.
Come solo or bring a friend!
Three Creeks Metro Park
We'll get in around 4 miles at Three Creeks Metro Parks, primarily natural trails. 17-18 minute miles, no one left behind, and faster walkers are free to lead out.
Optional lunch after!
If you're joining for hiking all the metro parks, this is the sixth one!
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for June is "Roadtrip"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
Men's Group meetup
**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.**
How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently?
Then we will go into a topic discussion.

**COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS**
\*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\*
1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group.
2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another.
3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up.
4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space.
5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable.
6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
