Queen Elizabeth Wildland - Sheldon Lake (Day Hike)
Scouting trip on QEW (**Day hike only**, not overnight) - basically we will follow the Ganaraska trail until we hit Sheldon lake. Around 4-5 KM 1 way (1-2 hours). I've done this trail before in the Winter, but it's probably been 10+ years.
\- https://www\.alltrails\.com/trail/canada/ontario/sheldon\-lake\-via\-ganaraska\-devil\-s\-lake
Meeting point is Devil's Lake Access point - 1115 Devil's Lake Road.
Assumes that the weather does get warmer by March and non-SUV /4 wheel vehicles can access the parking lot, which presumably is unmaintained. This also means no registration / parking fees needed.
**The weather will still be cold in March.** Anyone interested ensure you have the right gear to stay warm and for hiking and bring your own breakfast / lunch. **You are responsible for your own safety.**
Unless things change, I'm planning on taking my 4.5 year old daughter along as a weekend outdoor activity, so beginners are welcome and we will likely go slow.
1 - Mainly hike along the trail and see the conditions for future overnight backpacking trip.
2 - If there is time, explore the different camp sites along the lake to see which would be best for a future trip and for different group sizes.
Upliftment Through HU, The Sound of Soul-In Person Event
**"Sing HU, and you will have the secret of truth in your heart."**
—Harold Klemp, [The Sound of Soul ](https://www.eckbooks.org/items/The_Sound_of_Soul-1975-0.html)(https://www.eckbooks.org/items/The_Sound_of_Soul-1975-0.html), p. 15
Welcome to the worlds of HU, an ancient, universal name for God. This sacred word can spiritually uplift people of any religion, culture, or walk of life. It is freely given—a gift beyond measure.
HU is the Sound behind all sounds, woven into the language of life.
It is the wind in the leaves, falling rain, thunder of jets, singing of birds and the awful rumble of a tornado. Its sound is heard in laughter, weeping, the din of city traffic, ocean waves, and the quiet rippling of a mountain stream.
HU offers balance, wisdom and wonder—it brings alignment with your true purpose and highest good.
Join us to experience this sacred Sound of Soul for yourself.

🏛️ Early Years of the TTS: Context, Founding & Mission
🏛️ **Early Years of the TTS: Context, Founding & Mission**
**Sunday, March 22, 2026**, In-person & live on Zoom
Lecture begins at 7:30 PM \| Doors open at 7:00 PM
Join us for an evening with historian and author **Gillian McCann** as she takes us back to the remarkable origins of the Toronto Theosophical Society.
**Toronto's Religious & Intellectual Climate (1890s)**
What did Toronto look like spiritually and culturally at the close of the nineteenth century? This was a city on the edge of something new, where certain educated Torontonians were hungry for spiritual frameworks that reached beyond conventional religion, drawn toward questions of consciousness, the nature of reality, and the deeper currents of human existence. It was precisely this moment that made Toronto ripe for Theosophy to take root.
**The Founding & Early Membership (1891)**
Who were the people who came together to found the TTS, and what brought them into the same room? Gillian will explore the backgrounds, professions, and aspirations of the founding members — what they were seeking spiritually, intellectually, and socially — and what the early life and culture of the lodge actually looked like.
**About Gillian McCann, Ph.D**
Gillian McCann is a scholar of religion whose work focuses on New Religious Movements, the intersection of Eastern and Western spiritual thought, and the history of alternative spiritual communities in North America. She holds a doctorate in Religious Studies from the University of Toronto and teaches at Nipissing University in North Bay, Canada.
Her research into the Toronto Theosophical Society brought her to the TTS archive, where she was given full access — research that became the foundation for her book Vanguard of the New Age: The Toronto Theosophical Society 1891–1945.

The War Room: Intro to War Gaming at The Arcane Foundry
**⚔️ Introduction to Wargaming & Painting Miniature Soldiers at The Arcane Foundry ⚔️**
Join me in **The War Room at [The Arcane Foundry](https://share.google/S5i6DYJnJteHWeKtd)** for a laid-back evening of hobby talk and tabletop fun! For just **$25**, you’ll get a **3D-printed regiment of 20 high quality resin models** of your choice to paint — a **$40-70 value!** Bring your creativity, relax, and let’s make something awesome together.
This is a limited time promotional offer. All regiments are made to order and require **4-5 hours of production time**, so please give me at least a **5 day notice**, so I can have them ready for you!
All miniatures are printed with a commercial license.
**Choose one from Below:**
* 20 Empire Soldiers
* 20 Dwarf Warriors
* 20 Elf Spearmen
Step into a world where strategy meets artistry — and where every painted figure tells a story of battle, honor, and imagination. Join **Daclaud** at **The Arcane Foundry** for an evening that introduces newcomers and enthusiasts alike to the timeless craft of **tabletop wargaming** and **miniature painting**.
My own journey began with a fascination for fantasy — knights in armor, grim and hardened warriors, and monstrous creatures locked in epic battle. That passion led me to **Dungeons & Dragons**, where I painted my first **Basic Heroes set** and felt the spark that comes from bringing a character to life in miniature form. Not long after, I discovered **Warhammer Fantasy** and **Warhammer 40,000**, and I was hooked. The vision of vast armies clashing across the table — each unit meticulously painted, each story unfolding through dice and imagination — became my creative obsession.
During this event, we’ll explore the **origins of wargaming**, from its early military simulations to the richly detailed worlds of modern tabletop battle systems. You’ll learn how to **build and customize your own armies**, paint your first figures, and experience the joy of turning strategy and storytelling into a hands-on art form.
Whether you’re drawn by the lore, the hobby, or the thrill of commanding miniature legions, this introduction will open the gates to a world that has captivated hobbyists for generations.
**🎨 RSVP today and join us at The Arcane Foundry — where every brushstroke and battle tells a story.**
Sharon Woods HIKE

In Person Event: The Secrets to Mental Health
Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it?
How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
