Sunday mornings are for easy 5k's! Join us on our regular Sunday runs. This run is for EVERYBODY. We created RCB with the intention of connecting runners/people with each other. We know how hard it is to meet new friends in a city full of people. With RCB we want to make that easier. Every Sunday we will meet for a easy 5 kilometers (pace vary's according to people present), with a coffee & a chat afterwards (not obligatory). We believe that running can be much more than performance or pace. Meet-up is at will be at café Maxway, adress: Katharina-Paulus-Straße 2 at 11am.
Hopefully see you there :)

Schon am S-Bahnhof fällt der Blick auf das historische Industriegebäude der Alten Mälzerei, eine ehemalige Malzfabrik, die vor Kurzem zu einem integrativen Stadtquartier umgestaltet wurde. Vom Bahnhof aus gelangen wir durch ein Wohngebiet zum südlich gelegenen Abschnitt des Mauerwegs. Wie bereits im vorherigen Teilstück führt uns der Weg über weite Strecken entlang der Stadtkante durch die offene Landschaft im Süden Berlins. Der ehemalige „Kolonnenweg“ der DDR-Grenztruppen ist hier teilweise noch erhalten; auch einige der Peitschenlampen, die einst den Grenzstreifen ausleuchteten, stehen noch. Schon aus der Ferne kündigt die markante Silhouette der Gropiusstadt den Endpunkt unserer Wanderung an. **Was ist Village Outdoor?** Village Outdoor Events sind monatliche Treffen der we are village-Community und ihrer Freunde, um Outdoor-Aktivitäten in und um Berlin zu genießen. Jeden Monat gibt es einen kostenlosen und unkomplizierten Spaziergang oder eine Wanderung in Bereichen Berlins oder in der Umgebung, die mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreichbar sind. **Hinweise** **Treffpunkt**: 11 Uhr, S-Bahnhof Lichtenrade (S2) auf dem Bahnsteig **Streckenlänge**: ca. 12 km (ca. 4 Std.) **Rückfahrt**: U-Bahnhof Lipschitzallee (U7), **Sprache**: Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe werden wir Deutsch und/oder Englisch sprechen. **Kosten**: Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos mit Anmeldung. *\*\* Diese Veranstaltung ist Teil unseres Programms ‘****[Gemeinsam statt einsam](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‘, unterstützt von der* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/en/)****.

Even at the S-Bahn station, the eye is drawn to the historic industrial building of the Alte Mälzerei , a former malt factory that was recently transformed into an inclusive urban quarter. From the station, we walk through a residential area to the southern section of the Wall Trail. As in the previous section, the path leads us along the city’s edge for long stretches through the open countryside in southern Berlin. The former patrol road of the GDR border troops is still partially preserved here; some of the lampposts that once illuminated the border strip are also still standing. Even from a distance, the distinctive silhouette of Gropiusstadt announces the end point of our hike. **What’s Village Outdoor?** Village outdoor Events are monthly meetups for the we are village community and their friends to enjoy outdoor activities in and around Berlin. Each month features a free and easy walk or hike in Berlin or its surrounding areas, accessible by public transport. **General Information** **Meeting point**: 11:00 AM, Lichtenrade S-Bahn station (S2) on the platform **Route length:** approx. 12 km (approx. 4 hours) **Return**: Lipschitzallee U-Bahn station (U7) **Language:** we’ll speak English and/or German, depending on the needs of the group. **Cost**: free event with registration *\*\* This event is part of the we are village program ‘****[Belonging versus Lonelliness](https://wearevillage.org/village-quartiere/addressing-queer-lonliness)****‘, with the support of the* ***[LADS](https://www.berlin.de/sen/lads/en/)****.

Ditch the old book club, where everyone has to read the same book...this is better! It works like this: Bring your own book. Come chat, have some tea or coffee, get to know your neighbors. Then we quietly read together, side by side, for about one hour, each one reading their own book, and afterwards we talk with each other about what we are reading. The usual agenda: - Arrival and introduction (~20 minutes) - ⁠Silent reading (~1 hour) - ⁠Discussion (~30-40 minutes) - ⁠Join us for a bite at a local restaurant afterwards, if you like! You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you! No registration needed – the event is donation based. All funds support the Offenes Wohnzimmer.

Plus, the opportunity to get involved, connect with others and help those in need. PARTNER AGENCY: This event is hosted by Lutheran Social Services (LSS), which serves thousands of people in need each day in 27 Ohio counties by addressing the four core societal issues of food, shelter, safety and healing.

You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024
