Welcome to all levels. For the beginners, I will teach you some basic skills and demonstrate and you'll pick up easily. Practice makes perfect!

The equipment and balls will be provided at the driving range. ★★PLEASE let me know through Whatsapp or Calling before u sign up or RSPV and my HK number is 93798380. Otherwise, the chance of attendance will be passed to the one who did say hi to me first. Lastly, remember to let me know 24 HOURS before the Meetup if you will be late or can't attend. Otherwise, the one who absent without notice would be blacklisted and not welcome to join this Meetup anymore. Cheers, Terry Wong

**普及禪修課程 黃毅弘老師主講** **「拼圖出，理想的命運」** **每堂課為獨立單元，不需報名，歡迎大家參加。** 如果我們理解業的法則，會理解如何透過捨棄導致不幸的惡行及修習帶來快樂的善行，控制自己的未來經歷。 正如一位園丁種下豌豆的種子，一定是長出豌豆而不是麥子，當他甚麼都沒有種時，一定甚麼都不會長。因此，當我們進行善行，一定會經驗快樂的結果；當我們從事惡行，一定會經驗痛苦的結果。 在這系列的課程，我們將探索如何把佛法融入自己所有的日常活動當中。最終，得以實現我們的基本願望 — 得到快樂並遠離痛苦。 20/3 理想達到 27/3 去舊迎新 **黃毅弘老師**跟隨尊貴的格西格桑嘉措仁波切修習佛法逾十五年，是位現代噶當巴修行人。現職為專業攝影師。他對噶當佛法的信心及多年來修持現代佛法的經驗，啓發他積極鼓勵別人運用佛法，來解決日常生活中遇到的問題。 歡迎大家隨喜功德，建議捐助：每課 $50。所有捐款均用於中心的運作及發展，為大眾提供學習珍貴佛法的機會。 詳情: https://www.meditation.hk/2021/twcgp/ #現代佛法 #禪修課程

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
