Sunday Social Dog Walk through Zurich with Coffee
Social City Walk with Your Dog through Zurich on a Sunday morning.
We will stop for coffee between HB and Zurich lake, with our end destination being once again HB.
All ages and groups welcome.
You are also welcome if you just love dogs and would like to experience a bit more of them. I have two dogs which you could walk providing you let me know in advance that you would enjoy that.
ZH3 Hash # 1713: The St. Patrick’s Day Mad Shenanigans Hash
Hares are the 100% Prime Irish Beefy Hashers -Just Beggin’ For Holy Guinness - Cumming Out of a Holy Bush & Prosecco Potato Popper.
Join us on our annual mad gallivant around Zürich city in search of the precious pots of Golden Beer.
Rumour has it our national Saint will make an appearance this year to lead us on a merry Riverdance around Zürich.
There‘ll be rainbows, golden treats and hot chocolate Baileys. Plus the best in Irish souvenirs from BallyBeijing as prizes for the best dressed.
So come dressed in your finest green outfits as we spread some Irish cheer - you‘ve 40 shades to choose from - so no excuses.
This being a Sunday trail it will coincide with the first Horrors Hash of the year. There’s a playground next to circle location to keep your Horror occupied while we engage in circle shenanigans.
**Where**:
See location. Typically within Zurich Zone 10. Look for English speakers wearing running gear.
**When:**
There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.
**All Welcome:**
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
• We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful.
• The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards.
**Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?**
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it.
'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.*
We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Open Sharing Circle ✨ (Deutsch)
Open Sharing Circle ✨
Dieser Circle findet auf Deutsch statt.
Wir kommen zusammen, um im Moment präsent zu sein und uns so zu zeigen, wie wir wirklich sind.

Niemand muss etwas teilen, und jede*r ist willkommen.
⸻
Worum geht es?
• Stärkung von Selbstwahrnehmung & Selbstvertrauen

Respekt & Vertraulichkeit
Wir begegnen uns respektvoll und ohne zu urteilen.

Walk to the Monastery of Fischingen, ending with a visit of the organs (german)
**Walk description:**
We start in Steg at 9:05 and then continue to Fischingen. We must reach it before 14:30 for the visit
[von Steg nach Fischingen | Wanderung | Komoot](https://www.komoot.com/de-de/tour/2792737900?share_token=aU7rKJB5q1VQhYuvxPXjlCv2hhwsiAwZHb6c1TWzasLcNPgJUv&ref=wtd)
This is perhaps a easy walk but it is better to be fit and have good shoes.
**More information about the visit of the monastery organs**
For free, we have a guided visit of the organs in german.

I suppose it will be like last time. i.e. : 1 hour long
It start at 14:30 in case you just want to join for the visit

**Registration:**
To sign up, please select "Yes" in the WhatsApp community survey for this activity:
[🌄 Switzerland Discovery Crew (Preferred Ages 18-35)🌄 | WhatsApp-Kanal](https://www.whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaoercY1XquRrJm58k3V)
If the event will happen in more than 30 days, I haven't added the survey in the channel yet. (Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group)
If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group).
Please sign up only when you are certain!
You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.

Stille am Zürichsee – Mindful Photo Walk
— scroll down for English —
Der Zürichsee ist ein Ort der Weite, der Spiegelungen und der stillen Bewegung. Bei diesem achtsamen Walk treffen wir uns am Seeufer – ein Raum zwischen Wasser, Beton, Holz und Erinnerung.
Wir beobachten das Wasser. Wellen, Lichtreflexe, Strukturen unter der Oberfläche. Wir nehmen uns Zeit für Details: abgeblätterte Farbe, Spuren des Sommers, leere Stege, ruhende Treppen ins Nichts. Die Kombination aus natürlicher Dynamik und stiller Architektur eröffnet spannende Kontraste.
**Warum teilnehmen?**
Du schärfst deinen Blick für feine Veränderungen und minimale Bewegungen. Wasser wird zur Bühne für Licht und Zeit. Die verlassene Badi bietet grafische Linien, Texturen und Geschichten. Ein idealer Ort, um bewusst zu fotografieren oder kurze Sequenzen zu filmen – reduziert, klar, präsent.
**Was dich erwartet:**
* **Ankommen & ausrichten:** Mit einer kurzen Einstimmung starten wir in den Walk
* **Wasser beobachten:** Spiegelungen, Transparenz und Rhythmus entdecken
* **Raum erkunden:** Formen und Strukturen der Badi bewusst wahrnehmen
* **Gemeinsamer Abschluss:** Austausch und Reflexion direkt am See
Dieser Walk ist eine Einladung, Stille sichtbar zu machen – mit Kamera oder Smartphone. Es geht nicht um perfekte Bilder, sondern um Präsenz und Wahrnehmung.
Ich freue mich auf dich.
Daniel
PS: Dieser Spaziergang ist kostenlos, eine [Donation](https://tscharner.payrexx.com/pay?tid=861b78d0) zur Deckung der Unkosten ist sehr willkommen.

**English**
Lake Zurich offers space, reflections, and quiet movement. On this mindful walk, we meet at a lakeside lido, a place between water, concrete, wood, and memory.
We observe the water: waves, light reflections, subtle structures beneath the surface. We take time for details – peeling paint, traces of summer, empty docks, silent stairs leading into the lake. The contrast between natural movement and still architecture creates powerful visual moments.
**Why join?**
You refine your perception of subtle change and minimal motion. Water becomes a stage for light and time. The abandoned lido offers strong lines, textures, and stories. An inspiring setting for mindful photography or short video sequences – reduced, clear, present.
**What to expect:**
* **Arrival & intention:** A short introduction to focus your attention
* **Observing water:** Discover reflections, transparency, and rhythm
* **Exploring the space:** Experience shapes and structures with awareness
* **Closing circle:** Reflection and exchange by the lake
This walk invites you to make stillness visible – whether with a camera or smartphone.
Looking forward to seeing you,
Daniel
PS: This walk is free, a [donation](https://tscharner.payrexx.com/pay?tid=861b78d0) to cover expenses is very much appreciated.

Spring Flex Season
**How does a TennisColumbus Season / League run?**
The league advertises the season dates and builds a queue of committed players for the season.
**Kickoff Day - March 26th**
The start day of the season, players are sent a kickoff email that contains important information about the league, the link where your league standings and players contact information. We guarantee 6 playing partners at your playing level, but have been averaging closer to 15+ partners in most cities. The number of different levels we run is solely based upon the number of players enrolled for the league kickoff. Typically we are running a Skilled-3.0, Competitive-3.5 and Advanced-4.0 in most cities.
**Your Task - "Flexible Scheduling"**
After this kickoff email is sent, it is the **player's task to communicate with other players**. Players should work with their partners to find an agreeable time and location to play the match. While TennisColumbus doesn't mandate your playing schedule, it is recommended that players schedule at least one match per week. By request of the players, we started to allow players to play 1 rematch per season. The regular season is all about playing as much as you can. As of Feb. 10, 2026 we've had an amazing 2,017 players play more than [20 matches in a season](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/info/MatchesInSeason).
**Where to Play?**
Play at your local free tennis courts, tennis parks, condo courts or tennis clubs. The league strongly suggests that players jointly try to pick a tennis court location convenient to both. We provide an extensive list of [tennis courts](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/TennisCourts), including # of courts, lighting, hitting walls, etc. We strive to keep this list up-to-date.
TennisColumbus sets up a must play dates to push players out on the courts. The final deadline is the date marking the end of the season, at which point players with 3-5 wins (Actually total is specified on the division page) will qualify for a post-season playoff to determine the league champion.
**How to Play?**
Players can use three mostly standard playing formats: 2 out of 3 sets, 2 sets with 10 point super tie-breaker or the 10-game pro set (First to 10, used when court time is limited). On Feb. 2018, we added Fast Tennis 4 game pro set format as a valid format.
**Playoffs**
Each season concludes with a playoffs where players with anywhere from 3 to 5 season wins qualifies for a single elimination tourney. The champion is awarded based upon the league [Prize Pool](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/info/prize_pool3). Each singles league champion also receives a playing entry into one of two national championships we run.
**[JOIN TODAY](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/join)**
Full price is $39.95 to play in a season. The earlier you sign up we typically offer discounts during these tough economic times. Just go to the [Join Page](https://www.tenniscolumbus.com/join) and complete the short form. We'd be happy to find you dedicated tennis playing partners.
Fun & easy way to play more tennis (read event description)

These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun!
Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up:

Happy hitting!
