**Gold Mine and Great Falls Overlook. A Moderate 6.5 Mile Hike** SEE IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON REGISTRATION UNDER NOTE This hike features the remnants of a quirky gold mine and the classic overlook of Great Falls. The mine was established by a Union soldier who was stationed along the Maryland side of the Potomac River near Great Falls during the Civil War. He noticed a glint of gold and after the war, he returned to the area, bought some farmland, and started mining for gold. Eventually, 30 small mines were opened by various prospectors.

The hike starts near Old Angler’s Inn, passes by the mine remains, then goes down to the classic overlook of Great Falls before returning to the woods and hiking back on trails with splendid views of the Potomac River.

🎉 DC Ravers Project Glow Afterglow Happy Hour 🎉 Project Glow 2026 may be over, but the memories, favorite sets, and new discoveries are still fresh. Join DC Ravers for a relaxed happy hour at Cuba Libre in Penn Quarter as we reconnect after an incredible festival weekend. Whether you attended one day, both days, discovered a new favorite artist, met up with fellow members, or missed Project Glow altogether, everyone is welcome. This is a chance to connect with fellow EDM fans, share experiences from the weekend, and continue building the DC Ravers community. Festivals are amazing for music, but they aren’t always the easiest places to get to know people. Between multiple stages, conflicting set times, large crowds, and long days, many of us only had a chance to say a quick hello before heading off to the next set. This happy hour gives us a chance to slow things down and connect. We’ll be talking about: 🎶 Favorite sets of the weekend 🎶 Biggest surprises and discoveries 🎶 Funniest festival moments 🎶 Artists we’re excited to see again 🎶 Upcoming shows, festivals, and events 🎶 Ideas for future DC Ravers meetups Most importantly, we’ll be meeting fellow ravers, making new friends, and strengthening the welcoming and inclusive community we’re building together. 📍 Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar 📍 Penn Quarter, Washington, DC 🚇 Easy walk from Gallery Place–Chinatown Metro 📅 Thursday, June 4 🕕 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM 🌱✨ Some of us will have sprouts, kandi, and wristbands, so we will be easy to find. 😅😀 See everyone there! 🎧✨ Note: While we’ll be sharing our Project Glow experiences, this is an independent DC Ravers community event and is not affiliated with or officially sponsored by Project Glow.

This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance". Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
