Sunday Electronics Workshop
This workshop series is a **follow-up to the ESP32 Robotics workshop**, but with a different concept. Here, there will be no subject set in advance, instead **all participants are welcome to join at any point and at any level, from beginner to expert**. Beginners will be guided though the basics (C programming, how to use measurement tools, soldering, PCB design, etc…) and can get advice on what tools and kits to start with, others can come with their own projects to get help or share some knowledge.
## Requirements
* Bring your own laptop (Windows, Linux or Mac)
* Any microcontroller/dev kit to develop your project(s). If you are a beginner and don’t know what to buy, come and we’ll find the best starter kit for you !
* A strong desire to learn stuff, good mood and some patience !

Let's read and discuss non-fiction together.
In **June** we will be discussing "The Pragmatist’s Guide to Life: A Guide to Creating Your Own Answers to Life’s Biggest Questions" by Simone and Malcolm Collins.
For more information about the book check out goodreads:

How it works:
- 10-15min Introduction round
- 1 - 1,5h Free discussion around the book
- 10min selection of the next book. (We will vote between three possible books. I bring two suggestions and we select a third one from the group. So if there is a book you like to discuss feel free to put it forward.)
Don't worry if you cannot finish it in time. Just join us for a coffee or tea and a good conversation. :)
Happy reading!

Deep Conversation - Question Chosen in Session
How do we connect to people? What is so great about being different? Is love selfless? Should we be dreamers or realists? What values are we losing? When are we at our best? Does childhood ever end? Is morality a matter of convenience? What makes a person beautiful?
Such questions, and many more, await you Sunday at Sister's Cafe (second floor) . After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations :-).
Summer Solstice Drumming in the Forest
The Summer Solstice is a time of abundance, vitality, and expansion. Join us in the forest as we celebrate this powerful turning point of the year through the ancient rhythm of the drum and a ceremony to awaken our inner sun - the source of our personal power, creativity, joy, confidence, and inner radiance.
Together, we will honour the light within and around us, celebrate what is blossoming in our lives, and connect with the vibrant energy of the season.
Together we will:
🌿Connect with nature and the energy of the sun
🥁Experience the power of rhythm and ceremony

Walking in the woods+picnic 🌈🥰
Hey Folks,
Sunday seems like it's not going to be super hot :)) We can do for a light hike (8-10km). Let's make the most of the sunshine, enjoy the fresh air, and spend some time in nature!
You can bring your own food and drinks with you, and then we will enjoy it next to woodpeckers at La Cambre.
Very much looking forward to seeing you guys!
P.S. Be on time, we leave at 10:10
Cheers
Yifei
Counting Fireflies 2/2
**Hike #5**
You are invited to join this short hike by the Meetup group "**Walking, Talking, maybe a Picknick**". This is a great opportunity to flee the high temperature and cool down in the forest. 😊
**When**
Sunday 28/06
21:30 Assembly
23:30 Ending
**Intro**
We're going to hike \~8**km** in the Uccle/Ukkel part of the **Forêt de Soigne/Zoniënwoud**, just before twilight until complete darkness.
**Start and assembly location**
Drohme park. Chau. de la Hulpe 53A, Uccle
Assembly on the race track of the Drohme park near the tribune, which is the far end of the picture. Please be on time as we will leave at 21:35
**By car**
Why would you?
**By public transport**
hop off Hippodrome de Boisfort
**Dogs, cats, other animal**
This time no pets allowed.
**The hike and your preparation**
This 8km hike will take approx 2 hours, without breaks. If you have, bring your head lamp, although using it will spoil the whole thing. Just let your eyes adapt to the darkness. That will also make it easier to detect any Firefly.
The weather forecast suggests blue sky, around 27 °C. There is no mention of rain. Anyway make sure to carry water.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
To cover my costs as a Meetup organiser I'm going to ask for a voluntary calendar year contribution.
**Community contribution:**
€5 for non members
What is included:
\*Event organisation
- Group coordination
*Guided community hiking experience
Not included
- Public transport ticket
*Any insurance
- Food & drink
*Personal expenses

Badminton Sunday Social
Join us for some friendly Badminton games- all levels welcome!
IMPORTANT- in order to secure your place you’ll need to both book a spot on Meetup AND pay €8 by Friday morning. This is to make sure we can cancel courts if demand isn’t there, and make sure we’re being fair to people on the waitlist.
Refunds will only be possible after Friday AM if another player is definitely able to take your spot
Always worth joining our W’app group as well for faster, often better, updates!

Tervuren Arboretum
On Sunday we will keep in the shade by enjoying the Tervuren Arboretum, its still going to be warm so not too strenuous. We will start at Jezus Eik, Parking de Bosuil at approx. 13 Witherendreef, and walk 9 km and finally enjoy refreshment at the Café de la foret, Brusselsesteenweg 650, Overijse (Jezus Eik).
There are a lot of roadworks in the area, so I am hoping we can reach the intended start point ok.
I need to phone and confirm how many will stay for lunch.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.
