Worcester County Sea Chanty & Folk Music Meetup

Worcester, MA

Hi there! Did anyone else out there see the meme of Stan Rogers singing Barrett’s Privateers with a bunch of friends over beers in somebody’s kitchen and think, “hell yeah, I’d do that!”? Well, I know I did. If you did too, let’s make it happen. That’s literally all I’ve got for now—hit me up and we’ll figure out the rest together.

The New Science of Health and Nutrition

Worcester, MA

## **About this event** Seminar will be interactive= **"not a lecture".** Seminar is intended to be **"Fun/entertaining/informative"** The format will be like "**Trivial Pursuit"**, = questions will be asked, and **prizes** given for the correct answer. All questions will lead to a topic related to health and nutrition. **You do not need a science background**. Most of the questions will not seem like they are science related but they will lead to a health/nutrition theme. I've used this format for an older Veteran's group and they have no science background and it went very well. **If you have a science background=great!! We encourage feedback and your input.** **At Each seminar I will give you an actionable takeaway that you can use that day that hopefully will improve your health/life.** **When: Sundays 10-11AM beginning 8/10/2022** **Where: Beyond Still Waters** **38 Southwest Cutoff. 1st FL right** **Northborough, MA** **$20/pp**

Worcester Italian Language Learners

Auburn, MA

20 / 5,000 **\*\*\*New Group Looking for Members\*\*\*** **Ciao! We usually meet on the first and third Saturday of the month in Auburn.** **Parliamo italiano!** Would you like to practice speaking Italian (hai paura di parlare) ? Would you like to meet with others who are interested in Italian culture and travel to Italy? We welcome and offer an opportunity for all levels of language skills with the Italian language. Join us to meet people with common interests and practice your Italian language skills. **What we're about** This group is for anyone learning or wanting the chance to speak Italian with others in person in the Worcester area. All levels are welcome with the idea that those more advanced will have patience with those less experienced. We would welcome native Italian speakers who are interested in practicing their English, helping others learn to speak Italian, or who just want to be with others who are interested in Italy and la lingua italiana! **What we do** Most of our meetings will be unstructured. The idea is to give participants an opportunity to practice speaking, but feel free to speak in English if that is what makes you comfortable. Also feel free to switch between Italian and English. The idea is to learn and to become comfortable with speaking, the hardest part of speaking a new language. We may incorporate some games or short readings if there is interest. **Where?** We have been meeting at the Auburn Mall at the seating area outside of Macy's (where the first floor of the store opens to the inside of the mall). Check event details to confirm. **When?** We meet on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month at 10 a.m. in Auburn.

"Great discussions and insight on topics/questions asked." "Thank you Lisa, for hosting and moderating this chat - I truly enjoyed the participants and discussions. The variety and depth of topics were interesting, thought provoking, and respectful. I look forward to the next one!" "Nice event to get to meet people and express our thoughts and views."
