🩷 Valentine’s Day can feel tender, especially if you’re going through a breakup, feeling a little alone, or simply wanting to do something meaningful for yourself this year. So instead of forcing the day to look a certain way, we’re creating our own. This is a gentle, feel-good Valentine’s Day experience for women who want to connect, create, and leave the day with something beautiful. ✨ The plan for the day: • (Optional) We’ll start by meeting up to buy flowers for ourselves and create a small bouquet to take home. • Then we’ll head to Paint It Easy, where you can choose to: – paint ceramics – paint a canvas – or do beading • (Optional) Afterward, whoever feels like it can join for dinner, to keep the connection going and end the day together. 🌸 Important notes: • Everyone covers their own flowers, ceramics/creative activity, and food. • The only confirmation needed is for the ceramics studio, so we can secure the spot. • Women between 25-35 years old. Come as you are and create something beautiful just for you 💞 We’ve got you 💝

**Join us for a refreshing Saturday morning cold-water swim at Katzensee!** We’ll meet at **9:00 AM** at the usual spot by the lake, do a short warm-up, and then go into the water together. All levels are welcome — beginners and experienced winter swimmers. **What to bring:** * warm hat * towel * water shoes (optional) * warm clothes for after the swim * a thermos with tea (optional) We’ll swim for a short time, enjoy the fresh morning energy, and warm up together afterwards. If you’re ready to start your weekend with nature, cold water, and good people — join us!

This Valentine’s, join us for a fun and relaxed Fast Friending evening where connection comes first. No awkward speed-dating lines — just easy, guided conversations woven naturally into a mix-and-mingle setting, hosted to help everyone feel comfortable and included. Whether you’re single, new in town, or simply open to meeting new people, this event is about good conversations, great energy, and forming genuine connections — no pressure, just good vibes ❤️ **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://zurich14thfeb.eventbrite.co.uk](https://zurich14thfeb.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout.

Naturally you can always choose who to speak with based on your preference! **Here’s how our Fast Friending works:-** \- We will meet at 7\.00 and have time to get settle down and get a drink\. \- From about 7\.30 to 8\.30 we will run the fast friending system\. Half of the group \(mixed gender\) will stay in a fixed place and the other half of the group \(mixed gender\) will be asked to rotate\. During these intervals\, each pair of people will get the opportunity to talk to each other\. \- Neo will be hosting the evening and she will organize the fast friending process\. She will indicate when you should move to the next person\. \- From 8\.30 onwards we will stop the system and people will have to chance go chat and interact with those they have met as well as others\. If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Daryna will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. \- We are not a close knit tight group\. Our evenings are warm and comfortable for members attending for the first time and those coming alone\. You will not feel alone\! \- We have many groups in this city\. Members of our other groups who RSVP are included as guests of the organisers in order to give you an indication of expected people\. \- This evening is for ladies and gents in the 25 to 40 age group\. \- Our evenings are not about 'dating' or for 'romantic' connections\. 'Fast friending' is NOT 'Speed dating'\. 'Fast friending' is designed to help members meet other like minded ladies and gents\. It is about new friendships and connections\. Naturally\, new friendships can lead to dating or romantic connections\, but that is not our focus\. Why do we have tickets? 1. Cover our costs - Our host is compensated for their time and work. We also pay meetup and have dedicated staff to manage our events, hosts, venues and communication. 2.

\-\- Deutsch \-\-\- Für diesen Event der achtsamen Fotografie treffen wir uns auf dem Zwingliplatz beim grossen Baum. Unser erster Halt führt uns in den Kreuzgang des Grossmünsters. Danach schlendern wir in aller Ruhe weiter durch die verwinkelten Gassen der Altstadt. Dabei richten wir unsere Blicke bewusst nach oben und schenken den zweiten Fensterreihen der Gebäude unsere volle Aufmerksamkeit. Es ist erstaunlich, wie viele kleine und liebevolle Details sich dort verbergen – Dinge, die uns im Alltag oft entgehen. \-\-\- English \-\-\- For this mindful photography event, we will meet at Zwingliplatz by the big tree. Our first stop will be the Kreuzgang of the Grossmünster. After that, we’ll take a relaxed stroll through the winding alleys of the old town.

Hares are **One Night Wonder** and **Big Top**. Still recovering from roses, romance, or catastrophic Tinder decisions? Come hash it off at the ZH3 Sunday hash. You can expect a mildly enthusiastic winter trail, romantic falsies, committment-phobe checks, boozy schoggi, cold beer, and well, being cold ❄️. And because nothing heals a broken heart like Guinness, crisps and loud, drunken over-sharing, we will congregate in the nearby Irish Pub for the On-After! Hope to see you there ❤️☘️ **Where**: Wollishofenplatz. Look for English speakers wearing running gear. **When:** We'll meet at 1:45 pm to start at 2:00 pm. 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. • 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.

Wear boots and clothing you don’t mind getting dirty. Feel free to bring a filled water bottle. On sunny days a brimmed hat and sunglasses may be helpful. Sunscreen is also suggested.

Join our partners Watermark Woods Native Plants, Loudoun County Public Library (LCPL), and Birch Tree Bookstore for the Read! Plant! Grow! Book Club, which focuses on native plants, sponsored by Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy and LCPL. At this meeting we’ll discuss the book Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver. Both memoir and journalistic investigation, this book explores how the Kingsolver family took on a new challenge: to spend a year on a locally -produced diet, paying close attention to the provenance of all they consume. Concerned about the environmental, social, and physical costs of American food culture, they hoped to recover what Kingsolver considers our nation’’s lost appreciation for farms and the natural processes of food production. You can either buy the book from Birch Tree Bookstore or contact Allison Forbes at [Allison.forbes@loudoun.gov](mailto:Allison.forbes@loudoun.gov) to borrow a copy of the book at the library. There are two ways to participate: attend the event online via the library website or [sign up to participate in person at Birch Tree Bookstore](https://www.birchtreebookstore.com/event-details/read-plant-grow-2026-02-24-18-30). ***Questions:*** *Contact [info@loudounwildlife.org](mailto:info@loudounwildlife.org)*.
