MindShift Gym has graciously offered to host our January meetup again! This event is technically free, but donations are strongly encouraged. MindShift has granted us access to their space at no cost to us, but at meaningful cost to *them*. Please consider helping them out a little, as you're able. For those of you who'd like to continue playing after this event is over, you'll have the option to stay for an additional (free) open gym session. To help MindShift get a sense of how many folks intend to come (and so that we can get your waiver taken care of ahead of time), please register for this event here: https://mindshiftgym.sites.zenplanner.com/event.cfm?eventId=260B7229-A645-43A9-BBE3-D768DEC17B16 We're looking forward to seeing you! This meetup is non-binary inclusive and open to all ability and skill levels. Whether it's your first time trying parkour or you've been training for years there will be fun challenges for everyone.

Ready for adventure? Join us at our open-table D&D night, where the only thing you need is your imagination and a thirst for excitement! We love welcoming new players. Whether you're a battle-hardened hero or just rolling your first d20, you're invited to join the fun. All we ask is that you ***only sign up if you’re sure you can make it***. Seats are limited, and there’s often a waitlist of eager adventurers hoping to jump in. Help us keep the party full and the dice rolling! **What's an open table?** An "open table" is a style of TTRPG play where the game is flexible and inclusive, allowing players to drop in and out of sessions without needing a regular commitment. Instead of a fixed party, each session forms with whoever is available that day, and adventures are designed to be self-contained, starting and ending in a common location. This setup lets players explore the game world at their own pace, without the pressure to attend every session. It’s ideal for players with unpredictable schedules or those who just want to try out a game for a session or two. The open structure keeps the campaign ongoing, with the world evolving based on what happens in each session—even as the player roster changes. **Setting: The Western Frontier** The Crown Prince has done the impossible: a road now traverses the once-impassable mountains at the western edge of the kingdom, opening a gateway to a mysterious and unexplored land. Known only as the "western frontier," this vast and enigmatic wilderness is filled with towering trees, hidden glades, and shadowed depths. Rumors of ancient treasures and bizarre creatures spread quickly across the Known World, drawing the bold and the brave to answer the prince's call for adventurers. But be warned—the western frontier is no mere backwater. By day, it may seem like a land of promise, ripe for exploration and riches. By night, however, strange dangers stir beneath the boughs. While some who brave the darkness return with tales of terror, others are not so lucky. On occasion, adventurers disappear without a trace—or worse, they come back changed, haunted by something unseen, their minds never quite the same. Will you rise to the challenge and uncover the secrets of the forest? Or will the frontier claim you as one more lost soul? The call has gone out. The road is open. Will you step into the unknown? Learn more on the [campaign website](https://skyreach.alexgs.me/)! Join our [Discord](https://discord.gg/54PN3u8x9E)!

Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05. Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half. Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day. This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend! By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
