Ultimate Frisbee Pickup! All experience welcome! Main details: • For first-timers: you're very welcome, no experience necessary, we can teach you the rules and how to play. You just need a willingness to run around a LOT! Bring trainers (or cleats/football boots) and clothes you can run in and plenty of water • Please try to bring both a light top and a dark top as this makes splitting into balanced teams easier • Throwing from 2:00pm ish, we'll kick off a friendly pick-up game around 2:15. It's fine if you can only make it later on - we play with substitutes so you can join in at any point. If no one is there when you arrive, don't worry, people are probably just late! If the meetup is not cancelled, frisbee will be happening! • Afterwards we always head to a pub garden and have a drink or two :) • Frisbee is a non-contact sport, but the occasional bumps can happen, we're all playing at our own risk

Scotland, Lake District National Park - Saturday 4th April to Monday 6th 2026 (Easter weekend) ​During the 3 days we will visit the most beautiful views in Southern Scotland (Dumfries and Galloway) and the Lake District National Park. Starting on Saturday morning in Scotland, this event is only suitable for members that are in or near Scotland during this period. The below itinerary is very full, so only suitable for members that are energetic and keen walkers. Easter is a great time for this adventure, not too hot for our walks and sunset is around 7:30pm so will have over 13 hours of daylight each day to explore. ​Saturday 4th April: Scotland: Solway coast with sea views, bays, lochs and forest trails Sunday 5th April: two Scottish walks: 1.Circular walk of Loch Trool (lake) + 2. Merrick walk Monday 6st April (Easter Monday): Lake District - Cats Bells (fantastic lake views) For the above three days event I only have 8 FREE places for members that are fit, regular walkers and have access to a car as there are no public transportation to our walks as we are in remote areas. I am also organising a “non free” 4 days event leaving London (Colindale) on Good Friday morning 3rd April via mini bus, returning late on Bank holiday Monday 6th April. If you are interested in the full "non free" 4 day event, just email michaelwk16@yahoo.com.

In the Lakes you will find proper mountains, wild and rugged. We will walk along the best Lake walks, Cat Bells with Derwent Lake this walk have been voted as one of Britain’s top 5 walks. All the photos you see below are the places we plan to explore during the April event. There are no mountain climbs on this event just big hills to get to high viewpoints for the fantastic lake views. I have lead walks in the Lakes for over 20 years and believe the walks I have selected are the best for scenery. ​ Southern Scotland (Dumfries and Galloway) Our walk in Scotland will be very contrasting to the other 2 National Park in the Lakes and Peaks, giving you a memorable experience. There will be lochs (Scottish lakes), coastal views, bay and wild Scottish forest. On Saturday our Scottish coastal walk is along the Solway coast encompassing splendid sea views, bays and lochs. On Sunday there will be two walks, the first is a circular walk around Loch Trool and is arguably the finest short 5 miles walk in the Dumfries area. We will walk around the whole lake with high hills all around.​ For the free offer I can ONLY send you essential details for the three hike days i.e. walk description, meeting points & kit list but cannot provide info on accommodation or transportation.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

Have you always wanted to check out a rave… but didn’t know where to start? This is your chance. Whether you're a seasoned headbanger or completely new, we’d love to have you out. On April 11, Jessica Audiffred is taking over Otherworld — and this is *not* your typical venue. It’s a massive immersive art space filled with surreal rooms, hidden passages, and interactive exhibits… and for this show, almost all of it is open. So you’re not just going to a concert — you’re stepping into an environment: 🎧 A high-energy bass set that you *feel* 🌀 A labyrinth of trippy, explorable art spaces 👯‍♂️ A group to go with so you’re not figuring it out alone You can lose yourself in the crowd, disappear into another room, find something completely unexpected, and then come back right as the drop hits. No pressure, no “right way” to do it — just explore, move, and take it in at your own pace. 📍 Otherworld, Columbus 🗓 April 11 🕙 Doors open at 10:15 PM (music does not start in the exhibit space until 10:30 PM.) If you’ve been even a little curious about what this scene is like, this is one of the most unique ways to experience it. RSVP if you’re in 👇 There’s no cost to attend with the group—just the event ticket for Otherworld. Tickets are $40, plus some fees 🙄. You can use code "BassBuds" or "Bangers" for $5 off, which makes it \~$43 out the door. 🔗 [https://otherworld.ticketspice.com/jessica-audiffred](https://otherworld.ticketspice.com/jessica-audiffred) This is being posted to Central Ohio Friends and Columbus Social Connection. Please only RSVP to one group.
