Mob Programming at Mofer Coffee
Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together.
Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions.
If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming!
Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event!
Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event!
**Discord**:
We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event!
https://discord.gg/yvAGbh4PpD
**Event policy**:
* We have 0 tolerance for harassment.
* We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets.
* The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do.
* Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

John and William Hogg, sons to James Hogg, subdivided the marshy land that became "Hoggs Hollow."
It took a little time to encourage settlers to develop the land due to the inhospitable environment, but settlers moved in over the following decades. With the historic village of York Mills adjacent, a school, post office, pottery, blacksmith, livery, stable, store, cemetery and St. John's Anglican Church served Scottish, Irish and English immigrants.
The history of modern Hogg's Hollow began in the 1920s with the creation of lots, and homes reflected the beauty of the English countryside. The Baron Renfrew School opened in 1925 to replace a structure at 45 York Mills Road that was destroyed by fire.
Hogg's Hollow is certainly far from the tourist centre to the south, and is well worth exploring. With Yonge Street its main street, the community has a fascinating history that has long gone uncovered. Give Hogg's Hollow a look and you might stay awhile. I promise!
This walk is for all walking levels. Please dress for the season and bring water. Our Hogg's Hollow adventure walk begins at the Yonge Street doors of the York Mills Subway station. We head south and downhill and return to our starting point. Hope to see you there!
This tour has a ticket price of $15.00 per person!

Your new social coffee hangout.
Step into a relaxed afternoon built for real connection. A laid back setting with great coffee, easy conversation, and a room full of people open to meeting someone new.
This experience is designed to make connecting feel natural. Through a mix of casual games, shared tables, and lightly guided moments, conversations happen without force. Whether you are outgoing or more reserved, you will find your rhythm here.
In a city like Toronto, it is easy to feel like everyone is busy and hard to reach. This is a space to slow down, be present, and actually connect with the people around you.
By the end of the event, what begins as a room of strangers often feels like a group that has known each other longer than an afternoon.

A welcoming social atmosphere where people are open and engaged
A curated daytime setting with music and movement
Coffee, drinks, and food available throughout the event

This is a companion event for [Vegetarian trek for omnivores](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/events/313774090). You don't have to do the hike to join this, but it's more rewarding if you do.
[Hawker](https://www.hawker.to/) is perhaps the most innovative vegan restaurant in Toronto. Drawing inspiration from one of the oldest vegetarian traditions, several of their dishes fuse Indian influences with modern sensibilities. Take their biryani, for example, spiked with smoked poblano and lavender. Other dishes reflect the global experiences of the chefs. It's fine dining standards with casual prices.
If there are many people on the waitlist and it's at least 5 days before the event, we may arrange another table.
**Payment**
* The $5 event fee is a deposit. It will be refunded when you show up.
* After signing up for the event, you have 24 hours to e-transfer the fee to globaltorontoeats@gmail.com
* If you're on the waitlist, you don't have to pay the deposit until a space opens up. You have 24 hours to pay the deposit after you've made it off the waitlist.
* When sending the e-transfer, please add a note that mentions your meetup.com name.
* If you don't pay in time, you will be removed from the attendee list. The spot will be given to the next person on the waitlist.

We make an effort to find pubs that are quiet and introvert friendly, with a section to ourselves. We make no effort to muffle our extroverts, but should they get out of hand, our resident INTJ will use their death stare, to pull them back in line.

🌿🚶 LEASIDE SPUR TRAIL, WILKET CREEK & EDWARDS GARDENS WALK (10KM) 🚶🌿
Forest Trails, Flowing Creeks & A Spring Garden Pause
Some of the best parts of Toronto don’t feel like the city at all.
Join us for a longer, energizing social walk through some of the city’s most scenic green spaces — from quiet trails to winding creeks, with a beautiful stop at the gardens along the way.
We’ll explore the Leaside Spur Trail, connect into the peaceful paths of Wilket Creek Park, and make our way toward Edwards Gardens — where you’ll have time to wander, take in the seasonal blooms, and enjoy a little moment of calm in the middle of the walk.
This is not a formal tour.
It’s a social, active walk with great scenery and even better company.

We’ll begin at McDonald’s and head onto the Leaside Spur Trail, easing into the walk before connecting with Wilket Creek’s forested paths.
From there, we’ll continue toward Sunnybrook Park and into Edwards Gardens, where we’ll take a relaxed break so you can explore, enjoy the flowers, and recharge.
After our stop, we’ll loop back along the trails, returning to our starting point.
Once we’re back, those who want can grab a bite at Jersey Mike's Subs for a well-earned lunch. 🥪
No pressure to join — totally optional.

Vegetarian trek for omnivores: Liberty Village to Kensington Market (9 km)
**Attendance policy is enforced for this hike** because it's a popular one. See below for details.
This one is for the vegetarians and vegans who have been missing out on past hikes. And meat-eaters who turn their nose at the mention of vegetables.
This hike will highlight restaurants that showcase vegetables in their natural glory. No vegetarian burgers or vegan cheese. After all, why eat poor imitations of meat when you can eat the real thing? Great vegetarian dishes should stand on their own.
The best variety, quality, and density of vegetarian food is at downtown. Starting from hipster Liberty Village, we'll make our way to hippie Kensington Market. We'll pass by a veritable mix of Chinese, Indian, Italian, Jamaican, Lebanese, Vietnamese (and more) restaurants, each with their own take on veg food.
This hike ends at an Indian-inspired vegan restaurant in Toronto. Guarantee your spot at our [companion event](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/events/313789223/).

Origami Seed Pot Workshop
🌱 Origami Seed Pot Workshop
Saturday, April 11
10:00 AM
Many gardeners start seedlings in small plastic containers that eventually get thrown away. In this workshop we’ll learn a simple and practical alternative: folding biodegradable planting pots from ordinary paper grocery bags.
Using a traditional origami-style fold, we’ll turn brown grocery bags into sturdy seed-starting pots that can go directly into the soil when it’s time to transplant. The folded shape holds soil surprisingly well and breaks down naturally in the garden.
This technique is simple, practical, and easy to repeat at home throughout the growing season. If you're curious about the folding method ahead of time, you can watch a short demonstration here:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dlGQP81yfo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dlGQP81yfo)
During the gathering we’ll:
• Learn the folding method step-by-step
• Make several planting pots together
• Talk about seed starting and spring gardening
• Share ideas for reducing waste in the garden
After the workshop, those who’d like can continue the conversation over a casual lunch nearby.
If you have **brown paper grocery bags**, please bring a few if you can. If not, no worries—I’ll have extra bags available for anyone who needs them.
— 🥾 Difficulty —
Very easy. No experience with gardening or origami required.
— 💲 Cost —
Free.
— 📍 Location —
Rockville Memorial Library (Rockville, MD)
The library is about a 7-minute walk from the Rockville Metro (Red Line), with parking available nearby.
We'll be in room Rockville 1 at Rockville Memorial Library.
— 📝 Registration —
Please RSVP on Meetup so we know how many people to expect.
— 🎒 What to Bring —
• Brown paper grocery bags (if you have extras)
• Scissors
• Garden curiosity
• Optional: seeds you may want to start this spring
— 🚗 Carpooling —
Once the location is confirmed, we can coordinate optional carpooling through the Meetup event page.
Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit
**Agenda :**
* 4.45 to 5.00 PM ET: Food and Networking
* 5.00 to 5.50 PM ET: "Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit"
Hello Everyone! Please join us for our April 14th edition of the AI-ML MeetUp. **Please note this is an in-person meeting and light refreshments/food will be provided. You will need a government-issued ID to enter the facility.**
**Title:** Hands-On : GitHub Copilot SpecKit
**Description:** Spec-Driven Development **flips the script** on traditional software development. For decades, code has been king — specifications were just scaffolding we built and discarded once the "real work" of coding began. Spec-Driven Development changes this: **specifications become executable**, directly generating working implementations rather than just guiding them. In this hands-on lab, we will be covering building your application using SpecKit. Pre-requisites: VSCode v1.107, GitHub Copilot, Python 3.13 + uv, Git installed.
**Location:** The meeting will be hosted in the Applied Information Sciences ( AIS ) office in Reston, at 11440 Commerce Park Dr # 600 · Reston, VA. The location is also right off the Silver Line metro's Wiehle-Reston Metro Station.
**Parking:** Parking is paid and can be validated at the AIS office reception.
We will meet in Room Lake Anne.
We hope to see you all there!!!!
[Agent-Investor Series] How to Control Inventory and Dominate Your Market
This training is designed for real estate agents who want to learn how to play the Agent Investor game. The goal of this training is to help you flip your income into ownership.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
**Inventory is the lifeblood of every market.**
**And whoever controls inventory controls the opportunities, the buyers, and the leverage.**
How to Generate a Steady Stream of Motivated Sellers teaches you a focused, repeatable system to consistently find and serve motivated sellers—without chasing random lead-gen tactics or relying on luck.
Motivated sellers create multiple pathways: traditional listings, cash offers, creative solutions, rental opportunities, and investor deals.
When you know how to help people in distress, you create impact and income at the same time.
In this session, you’ll learn the core framework for building predictable motivated seller opportunities using ZONE:
* Zero in on your target
* Own the mindshare
* Nurture the list
* Expand your influence
You’ll also learn the highest-probability seller funnels, including:
* Pre-foreclosures (homeowners who need real help and clear options)
* Absentee owners / tired landlords (10+ years ownership, deferred maintenance, vacancies, tax pressure)
We’ll walk through the exact steps to build your first seller ZONE:
get the list, segment it, create messaging, call the list, market weekly, build relationships—and control inventory.
You’ll also get a proven seller message that converts because it offers real options:

In Person - Discover the Expanded Awareness of Soul Travel!
You are an immortal Soul. As Soul, you are a unit of awareness, who uses a
physical body to experience this world. It is your spiritual birthright to freely
explore and enjoy all of Divine creation. It is up to each of us to claim that
freedom for ourselves!
Examples of Soul Travel include out-of-body experiences and near-death
experiences. One aspect is your dreams, where you explore other spiritual worlds.
Another aspect is the expansion of consciousness. All aspects increase your
awareness and understanding of life.
This world is a spiritual laboratory. If you would like to learn some Soul Travel
techniques, please join us!

AI Tool Explorers Night | Connect & Make New Friends
Most AI meetups end up as just networking. **We’re different.**
At **AI Tool Explorers Night \| Connect & Make New Friends**, you’ll:
✨ Walk away with a *real learning nugget* (a tool, workflow, or strategy you can use immediately)
✨ Connect with people who share your curiosity for AI, productivity, and automation
✨ Enjoy a fun, casual setting where new ideas and friendships spark naturally
👉 **Our promise:** every session delivers structure, substance, and takeaways you can use when you get home.
### 📅 Event Flow
* **6:00–6:15 PM** → Arrivals & intros
* **6:15–6:45 PM** → AI demo / learning nugget
* **6:45–7:00 PM** → Q&A and group discussion
* **7:00–8:00 PM** → Networking & contact sharing
⚡ Please hold networking until after the presentation so we can all learn together. Plenty of time at the end to connect and exchange cards!
**Let's explore AI Tools that actually *work* in our day-to-day life!**

Energizing Walk for Busy People!
Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy nature! We meet Saturdays at 10am, by the bike racks and benches 150 feet in front of BUBBLES Hair Salon in Reston, leaving no later than 10:05.
Every week we'll walk the Green Trail to Lake Anne Plaza (\~1 mile), pause there for 5-10 minutes (water, bio, and from April-Nov a Farmer's Market), then circle the lake (2 miles) before returning to our starting point. It's roughly 3.5 miles and takes about an hour and a half.
Afterwards, some members will often head to a local restaurant to refuel and relax before tackling the rest of the day.
This event is open to all ages and fitness levels, and both friends and dogs are always welcome! We recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water bottle, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll always walk, rain or shine.
By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
