It’s out first time for trivia at the Fox. What better way to start it than drag trivia. Hosted by Crash, it’s going to be camp and chaotic (their words). If you’re into trivia or just a local, why not come down for your chance to win a $50 bar tab for your team. If drag isn’t your thing, maybe give this one a miss. Why not check out their menu while you’re there. https://www.thefoxhotel.au/menu A $20 non refundable deposit is required for this event and will be refunded on the night.

It's been a long time since we had a social gathering, let's fix that. Come along and meet members of the group, catch up with existing mates, drink some froths, eat some food, and be merry. Come along to Stomping Ground in Collingwood. There is also an URBNSURF session meetup at the 6-7pm Intermediate Right before this so come along to that too if ya keen! Please update your RSVP if you can no longer make this event so that anyone on the waitlist can be added to the event. If you do not you will be forever cursed into a life of kooktitude and all your waves will close out as soon as your feet hit the deck. Come on and drop into some conversations. Perform a slick verbal cutback into a new friendship. Get barrelled by positive energy and the endless stoke of a great group of people. Enhance your tasting paddling stamina with a nice selection of craft beer. Duck dive into a night that could go anywhere but, let's be honest, will likely end up at karaoke. As the great philosopher Björk once said: "What’s the point in drinking a glass of wine a day ? It’s a waste of money, a waste of time, a waste of wine. Better to drink a litre of vodka once a week and do it properly, really get out of it. I miss all that. I’d rather go all the way once a month, end up naked on a bar table, climbing fences and swimming in someone’s pool."

Tall eucalyptus trees stretch into the sky, fern gullies glow deep green, and a soft creek flows through the forest like a gentle soundtrack. Hidden among it all stands the old **kiln chimney** — a reminder of Victoria’s early timber days — and the peaceful **water wheel**, turning slowly beside the stream. This is a place to slow down. We’ll walk through lush forest trails, listen to the sounds of water and birds, maybe spot a **koala resting high in the trees**, and take time to simply breathe. After the walk, we gather for a relaxed **picnic with fresh fruit**, followed by a short **meditation** in nature — a moment to ground, reset, and reconnect. The day finishes with a refreshing **kayak session on a calm lake**, surrounded by rolling hills and quiet reflections. This is not just a trip. It’s a gentle return to simplicity. 🌿 \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **🌟 What’s Included** ✔️ Guided 9 **km forest hike** (easy–moderate) 🥾 ✔️ **Kayaking** on a calm lake (all equipment included) 🛶 ✔️ Guided **meditation** in nature 🍃 ✔️ Fresh **Fruit Platter** 🍉 ✔️ Unlimited **snacks, soft drinks**, coffee & tea ☕ ✔️ Premium round-trip transport **Mercedes** minivan 🚐 ✔️ Small-group athmosphere & meaningful connections \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ## ☘️ Your Itinerary: A Day at Kurth Kiln 🌅 **7:30 AM** – Pickup at St Paul’s Cathedral, Flinders Street 🚐 **8:00 AM** – Stop break 🌿 **9:15 AM** – Arrival Morning **coffee, tea** & snacks (included) 🥾 **9:30 AM** – Forest **hike** begins *(9 km, easy 190m elevation)* 🍉 **12:30 PM** – Picnic + **fruit platter** *\(Unlimited snacks & drinks \| BYO lunch welcome\)* 🧘 **1:30 PM** – **Meditation** & grounding in the forest 🛶 **2:30 PM** – **Kayaking** session (easy & beginner-friendly) ☕ **3:30 PM** – Relax by the **lake / tea** break 🏙️ **4:30 PM** – Depart back to Melbourne 🌇 **6:00 PM** – Return to city, full of calm energy 📍 Drop-off: Hamer Hall, Melbourne \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **💰 How to Book?** Secure your spot with a **$99 transfer**: 🔹 **PayID:** 0414 661 458 🔹 **Bank Transfer:** **NAME:** KARAPETIAN G **BSB:** 013233 **ACCOUNT:** 226325836 **Ref:** Ku 🌟 **Limited spots available—RSVP now!** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ❗️**Please Note:** **Payments are only credited or refunded if the event is canceled or rescheduled by the organizer.** In all other circumstances, payments are **non-refundable and non-transferable**. ❗️Thank you for understanding and supporting the planning involved in creating these experiences! 🌿 \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **🎒 What to Bring?** ✔️ **Comfortable hiking shoes (or able to supply, let me know size)** **✔️ Wind/water-resistant jacket**🧥 ✔️ **Long pants & long sleeves** 🌿 ✔️ **Hat/beanie** 🧢 ✔️ **BYO lunch** 🍽️ (or can buy on the way) ✔️ **A positive mindset & big smile!** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 📢 **Questions?** Feel free to **DM me anytime!** 📩 ✨ **Let’s make this an adventure to remember** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Visit our sources: [https://www.facebook.com/groups/812911556223655/?ref=share](https://www.facebook.com/groups/812911556223655/?ref=share) Instagram: [nogeography.hike.kayak](http://nogeography.hike.kayak/) [https://www.meetup.com/en-AU/no-geography-hike-and-kayak/](https://www.meetup.com/en-AU/no-geography-hike-and-kayak/) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Credited or refunded only if the event is canceled/moved.

**Connected Westerville Night of Networking** *April Edition: The Introduction Economy* You've been to the networking events. You've done the small talk. Collected the cards. Forgotten the names. And walked out feeling like you just wasted two hours of your life. The problem isn't you. It's the format. Most networking events put you in a room and tell you to figure it out. So everyone defaults to elevator pitches and business talk, and nothing real gets built. Here's the truth about networking that most people miss: Your network isn't just who you know. It's who thinks of you when they're talking to someone else. *That's* The Introduction Economy. And it only works when relationships are real. There's a reason people who come once keep coming back. It starts with seven minutes that feel nothing like networking. Then we open it up. Free networking. More conversations. More momentum. This is a room full of corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and career builders in the Westerville and Columbus area. The mix is the magic. You might never do business with everyone you meet tonight. But someone in this room will think of *you.* **By name**. So, the next time someone needs exactly what you do, you get the recommendation. **April 14th. RSVP now.** **When:** Tuesday\, April 14th \| 6:15 PM \-\- 8:00 PM **Where:** Vineyard Community Center \| 6000 Cooper Rd\, Westerville\, OH 43081
