Men's Group meetup

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.

ACTIVE WOMEN Photo Shoot!!!

Please humor me. I think this is going to be SOOO much fun! I'd like to get a new pic for our home page on meetup that depicts what we are really about. With FUN being a huge part of that. Still dreaming this and probably will be until the camera clicks but thinking we'll meet a Highbanks. I'll bring big sheets of paper that we can write the letters A C T - you know the rest. We'll make these letters fancy! We will need at least 11 women if we only do the letters and 12 with the 55+. But the really fun part is the props. We're just getting started but I'd like y'all to bring whatever props you can think of that depict activities that we've done - or hope to do. This means bicycles, hiking boots, decks of cards, board games, if someone can bring their dog that would be cool. A paddle board or kayak (I'm imagining a kayak in the front of the group with a woman rowing :). Trying to convince Linda J. to bring one of the APES from the sanctuary :). I've ordered a blow up calf - need a baby bottle to feed it. . . what could we have that would represent recycling or trash? We like to eat out so a plate of food? Mug of beer? Coffee? Bouquets of flowers for the Conservatory etc.? Hoes for conservation work? If you have markers or paints that would be awesome. What else? I hope you think this will be as fun as I do . . . so many fun and creative women in this group! Please list any props you're willing to bring in the comments :). Oh, and we'll walk for maybe 3 miles afterward and then have an optional lunch.

Hike Blendon Woods

Let's meet at the Nature Center parking lot to hike some miles. We'll string together trails to try to get to 4 miles and can always walk the road if anyone is interested in additional miles. I usually walk a 19-20ish minute mile; faster paces are always welcome. Optional lunch following at Harry Buffalo in Westerville at 6150 Souith Sunbury Rd, Westerville.

Ultimate Frisbee on Saturday

Happy Volleyball Club is back!

Ultimate Frisbee at Coffey

NOTE NEW DATE!!! Old Beechwold; What You Don't Know May Surprise You

On this tour we'll enjoy a 2.5 miles stroll through beautiful Old Beechwold. We'll learn about its unique origin, discuss its transformations through time, and witness its hidden gems. Due to the lack of any sidewalks and the narrow, winding roads here the tour size is limited. If you have weak knees or balance issues please bring a hiking pole or two as we may go "off trail" for a bit of our tour, depending on interest. We can discuss lunch options afterward for those folks who would like to go to lunch nearby. I will cancel this tour in the event of likely rain.
