Re. Intravenous
"Mr and Mrs Czensa were married for 40 years. Suffering from a rare form of a terminal illness Mrs Czensa was near her end. While working late into the night, a local chemist, Dr Amrex discovered Cyclacryptozine. An intravenous drug that could change the nature of all illnesses forever. After relentless years of research, he had found his answer to wealth. He decided to sell Cyclacryptozine at a price that was payable only by the very elite. When Mr. Czensa got news of the drug, he knew he would go to any length to save the life of his beloved wife. Coming to realize that he only ever had a 45 minute window to get the Cyclacryptozine, it was now or never. He was going to save her life and it's worth the risk!”
This room is 45 min. in length. Per tradition, we'll do optional coffee/drinks/dinner/dessert afterward if people want to hang out.
Important details about the escape rooms only:
1. We will book the spots for the escape room, so no planning needed!
2. This is a prepaid event, so you must pay the fee to join in.
3. Please arrive at the listed time. This is scheduled 15 mins ahead of the room time so that everyone can arrive, check in and sign waivers if applicable.
4. No shows or last minute cancellations after the booking has been paid for will not receive refunds due to the non-refundable nature of the escape room businesses.

7. Please share the puzzles! We can be big groups thanks to your patronage, and sometimes escape rooms don't have multiple puzzles to work on at one time, so only a few people may be able to work on a given puzzle. Share the love! If you've been the leader on a few puzzles in a row, kindly step back and let someone else have a turn.

Re. Amnesia
"Emily has just awoken from a long and peaceful slumber. She Has no idea where she is or what she is doing here. Its a pleasant enough place, but she doesn't remember how she got here or how she can get out, if that is at all a possibility. She has faint recollections from a previous life which seems like someone else's from a time long, long ago. The memories are fading quick and she has minutes to escape before it all fades away.....”

The "Low-Down & High-Up" Boyne Valley Trek
## Details
Get ready, team. This Saturday, we’re taking you low before we get you high. We’re diving deep into the Boyne Valley watershed, weaving through the forest, and eventually conquering the **512-meter lookout** for a 360-degree vista that’ll make your Instagram followers weep with envy.
You don’t want to miss this—unless you have a personal vendetta against fresh air and spectacular views.
**📍 The Game Plan**
* **The Rendezvous:** Meet at the **Subway** sandwich store at Hwy 10 & Hwy 89.
* **The Time:** **9:45 AM sharp.** (That’s "9:45" in human time, not "9:45ish" in hiker time).
* **The Logistics:** With gas prices being what they are, please carpool—or ensure your Tesla is topped up with enough electrons to get us there and back.
* **Pro Tip:** This is your golden opportunity for a "civilized" bathroom break and a caffeine infusion before we vanish into the woods.
* **Distance options:** 9 km (The Appetizer) or 13 km (The Main Course). We’re ranking this a Level 2.5 effort and 5.0 views, enough to justify that post-hike snack."
**🚗 Parking Tetris**
Depending on our numbers, we’ll drive two minutes north to the **Lilliputian parking lot**. If we show up looking like a motorcade, we’ll leave a few sacrificial cars at the Subway lot to keep things manageable.
**🗺️ Don't Get Lost (It's Embarrassing)**
For the directionally challenged, use these for pinpoint accuracy:

**🎒 The "Must-Haves"**
Please bring **water and snacks**. You’re all big girls and boys now; I shouldn't have to remind you that dehydration isn't a personality trait.
**One last thing:** People ask if we’re climbing mountains or just "hill-areas." Honestly? It’s going to be **hill-arious** until we hit the incline—then it’s just business.
See you on the trail.

CMG Gives Back: Serve Brunch at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “create a better world” by helping serve those in need. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for BRUNCH from 10:30am to 12:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 10:20am and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1
week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events!
Should be another good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan
Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup (4th Tues)
Jimmy V's Grill & Pub in Grandview Heights. You are responsible for your own meal/drinks. We usually don't have any agenda other than eat, drink and talk. :) If the weather is nice we will be on the back patio, otherwise we are in the cigar room.
This group has been meeting every Tuesday evening for over a decade. Many attendees do not RSVP on meetup. Please don't let the small number here discourage you. Anyone/everyone is welcome to come. We'd love to have you join us.
COTA bus #5 comes to W. 5th and Wyandotte Rd. And it's a minute walk to the restaurant.
In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
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.
