What if a tennis class became the easiest way to meet new people? **The Best Group** combines structured, level-based tennis group classes with an optional social matching experience. Here's how it works: 🎾 Join a tennis group class with players of a similar level 🤝 Having joined a class, you can choose to be matched with **three other people you've never met before** for dinner. The difference? **Everyone at the table will already have completed a tennis group class with The Best Group.** Instead of meeting complete strangers with nothing in common, everyone shares the same experience, making conversations feel far more natural from the very beginning. Think of it as a Timeleft-style social experience—but with a built-in shared connection before you ever sit down for dinner. **Join the waitlist for early access:** [https://thebestgroup.base44.app/](https://thebestgroup.base44.app/)

**WHO SHOULD ATTEND?** This group is ideal for anyone who’s new to trail running in the forest. Whether you prefer a slow, moderate, or fast pace, you're welcome to join — we each run at our own speed, with no pressure to keep up with others. *** **WHAT TO EXPECT ?** Our participants range in age from 29 to 65, and everyone has a different level of fitness. That's why we encourage everyone to run at a pace that suits them — **we do not pace one another**. Each run typically lasts **30 to 40 minutes**, depending on individual fitness levels. We usually have around **9 to 12 runners** per session. After the run, we often gather for a quick drink or casual dinner — a nice way to wind down and socialize. *** **DISTANCE COVERED** Approximately **5 to 6 km** per run. *** **VENUE** We explore various trail locations across Singapore, but our **main base is Bukit Timah Nature Reserve**. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ \*This Sunday Trail Run_28th June, 2026\* \*MacRitchie Reservoir\* RSVP: **\*LEISURE & FUN RUN\*** **MacRitchie Reservoir** **This SUNDAY_ 28th June, 2026, 5pm** **\*RSVP\*** ***https://www.meetup.com/lesiuretrailadventures/events/315339674/?eventOrigin=group_upcoming_events*** **\*Meeting/Start Point\*:** Main Pavilion (where the water dispensers & toilets are located) 1km away from Caldecott MRT, 10-12 min walk **\*Run Start Time\*:** 5pm Please be at the meetup start point by 4.45pm.

To confirm your participation, please email **completeme@outlook.sg** or WhatsApp **(65)** **81252321** us at least 3 days before the event. Please note that marking yourself as “Interested” on Meetup does not confirm your slot. Kindly contact us early to secure your place. **Walk-ins are not allowed.** This is not a typical singles event. Our Private Singles Event is a carefully curated experience for invited singles who are genuinely seeking meaningful, committed connections with like-minded individuals. Guests are thoughtfully selected based on key factors such as age group, educational background, interests, religion, career, and family goals. We all naturally hope to meet someone who shares many of our preferred qualities. While it is wonderful when these align in one person, it may not always happen perfectly or immediately. This experience is thoughtfully designed around that. Instead of focusing on “finding everything in one person,” we bring together individuals with meaningful overlaps — creating space for genuine chemistry and connection to develop naturally. With a more curated guest list, this format is intentionally designed to improve mutual match compatibility more effectively compared to our usual speed dating events. By thoughtfully selecting participants based on key compatibility factors, we aim to create a higher-quality environment where conversations feel more aligned. To elevate the experience further, we have specially rented a private function room in a 5-star hotel, providing an elegant, comfortable, and premium setting for this exclusive gathering. **How it works:** All interested participants are required to register their interest by 14 June, 12pm first. It is free-of-charge. We will then carefully review and select the final list of invited singles by 17 June. Selected participants will be given 24 hours to **complete payment of $88 via PayNow or PayLah** to confirm their seat. If payment is not received within the timeframe, the slot will be released and offered to the next person on the waiting list. We are expecting a group of 16 - 24 participants, ensuring a comfortable and engaging atmosphere. Each participant will have the opportunity to meet everyone of the opposite gender. This is not a direct matchmaking service where we pair people one-to-one. Rather, most participants within the curated group will share some common overlaps and similarities, allowing individuals to naturally explore who they feel the strongest chemistry and connection with. At the end of the session, our mutual matching process helps your newfound connections continue beyond the event, giving meaningful connections a chance to grow. Your experience doesn’t end there. You will be invited to a private Telegram group for one week, providing the opportunity to continue conversations either in the main group or privately with your matches. Your ticket includes: ✨ 1 coffee/ tea & 1 slice of cake ✨ Guided group rotations ✨ Mutual matching ✨ A week-long facilitated Telegram chat group If you’re looking to meet new people, expand your circle, and potentially discover someone special — this is an event designed for you. **Cost:** Lady's Ticket $88 Gentleman's Ticket $88 This event is organised by **CompleteMe Dating Agency**. Founded in 2012, CompleteMe is a Singapore-based dating agency known for its curated dating events and speed dating sessions designed for working professionals. Having organised over 1,000 dating activities, the agency has helped countless singles meet, connect, and build meaningful relationships over the years.

🏛️ **WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?** Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎 Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic. The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌 📓 **HOW DOES IT WORK?** Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going. When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, it’s important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture. **General Meeting Agenda** Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline: * 19:00-19:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start. * 19:15-19:25 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines. * 19:25-20:45 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them. * 20:45-21:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo. * 21:00 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other. **🧧PRICING?** Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a café, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though! 💛 **WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY** 🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam 🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel **🤓 FAQ** * ​What will we talk about? What's the topic? ​The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t). * Do I need to study or read anything to attend? No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required. * Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on? The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school. * Is it mostly men that attend? Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms. * Can I come alone? Of course you can, we encourage it :) * Can I be late? Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation. * Where do you meet? The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group!

**For ages 17 and above.** Influenced by the Spanish and African culture, the Tango is sensual and passionate, one of the most fascinating dances. Stylized strides dominate this dance, along with periodical sharp and staccato movements. Tango’s passionate nature evokes a strong connection to the music, your partner and the audience, a dance that is exciting and often easy to learn.

Let's get together and listen to **[Eric Rico](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ericrico/)** from Unity3D (**From Joints to Gestures: Reading Hands in Unity**). A hand tracker gives you joints, not a gesture. This talk shows how you get from raw joints to a "thumbs-up" in Unity: the pipeline that cleans up the data, how a gesture becomes a few 0-to-1 values within tolerance, and why orientation matters as much as finger shape. Includes a live demo of tuning gesture thresholds. Eric also runs the **[Columbus Unity User Group](https://www.meetup.com/columbus-unity-user-group/)**. Check it out! ***Bring your laptop and expect to write some (non-AI-generated) code!*** Food and drinks will be available. **LOCATION:** 6515 Longshore Loop, Suite 300, Dublin, OH 43017 **FREE PARKING:** 6725 Longshore Street, Dublin, OH 43017

**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.
