Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning (TCWP) Meetup

Oak Ridge, TN

TCWP (Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning) is dedicated to achieving and perpetuating protection of natural lands and waters by means of public ownership, legislation, or cooperation of the private sector. While our first focus is on the Cumberland and Appalachian regions of East Tennessee, our efforts may extend to the rest of the state and the nation. TCWP's strength lies in researching information pertinent to an issue, informing and educating our membership and the public, interacting with groups having similar objectives, and working through the legislative, administrative, and judicial branches of government on the federal, state, and local level.

Don't be concerned that you'll be at an event by yourself just because there are few meet-up reservations. TCWP has over 200 members across middle and east Tennessee, many of whom rely on our excellent newsletter (published 6 times a year) rather than this site for information on frequent lectures, field trips, work days, and other outdoor activities.

For more information and to join TCWP go to www.tcwp.org

We invite you to join with us on our journey through life in search of Divine truth and guidance. We believe that messages from spirit are available to all who will learn to listen.

We believe that everyone who attends has come for a reason - there are no coincidences! We wish to make it clear that we are NOT a Bible study group or a Christian group of any kind, though we respect all religions and have members from diverse spiritual backgrounds. We welcome everyone to come and experience our group. If you have specific topics you would like to discuss we are open to that. In addition we discuss a broad range of spiritual topics, engage in spirit communication, and get in touch with our guides and guardians.

KnoxPHP

Knoxville, TN

Looking to meet with other local PHP developers? Want to learn more about a particular CMS? Just getting started with web development and want to learn the basics? You've come to the right place.

KnoxPHP is about meeting up with other local developers to share tips and tricks, and to learn from each other's collective experience.

Want to build a REST api for your AngularJS app but don't know where to start? Want to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of HACK vs PHP7? Need help accessing Zend functions on your Magento instance? Have no idea what any of this means but think web sites are neat?

All skill levels and backgrounds are welcome.

Look forward to talks by local developers, lunch-and-learn opportunities, and chances to learn more about this much maligned, but powerful programming language.

KnoxPHP is sponsored and organized by Radio Systems Corporation in an attempt to foster a vibrant development community in Knoxville and surrounding areas. We recognize that a strong community benefits us all. This group will never be used to try to sell you anything, and although we are also sponsored by a recruitment company, we are not a recruitment drive. We promise to always hold to high ethical standards and do whatever it takes to create a strong PHP community in this area.

Knoxville area singles hiking and adventures

Knoxville, TN

To bring together like minded singles that enjoy things like hiking, biking, camping, music, games ect. Ppl that may be a little introverted or tired of traditional dating apps that would like to meet ppl more organically in a no pressure environment. I will be planning things like small local day hikes, ones further out within the region, usually between the 5-8 mile range. Hikes will not be early morning or fast paced. I generally hike around 2.5 miles per hour, but can see it down a little if needed. I like to soak it in and enjoy the experience and take plenty of pictures. We may also do some biking, some on trail, some greenways. Camping if anyone is interested, maybe some caves, kayaking, rafting, live music, game pubs, local events, and always open to suggestions. One or more of my sons may be joining us at times and I encourage ppl to bring their children’s times if you like. Mine hike and adventure with me often and I don’t let meeting ppl get in the way of that quality time. I think I will have a box, paper and pen at the end of events. This will be for suggestions of places you would like to go or things to do, and I won’t have to try to remember if told. For the introverted and shy like I am sometimes, if you are interested in someone in the group and would like for me to help gauge interest for you or help facilitate the connection then we can use it for that. Also this will cost me some money per month for this app, so I will not be charging ppl to join, but if you enjoy the group and activities then I will gladly accept “tips”, no required. If anyone is interested in being a co organizer and sharing the cost I am open to that. I expect everyone to act like adults of course and if I get complaints about anyone being creepy or disrespectful I will kick them out of the group as this should be a safe and enjoyable space.

Knox Paddle, Bike, and Outdoors

Knoxville, TN

The purpose of this meetup is to provide an opportunity to meet new friends, share new experiences, gain knowledge from one another. We have events at all skill levels from beginner to expert. We look forward to you joining us on the water, bike trail, camping, hiking, traveling, and more! Safety: Paddling at any level is a risky sport. Each individual is ultimately responsible for his or her own safety. Each individual is responsible for having appropriate equipment, for having the requisite skills for padding/sailing a given river or lake, and for the decision to run any river rapid or body of water. Although ultimate responsibility rests with the individual, important safety benefits are gained from paddling with a group of other prepared and competent paddlers. Bike Safety: Always wear a helmet, wear bright colored clothing, use lights at night, and stay alert. Be sure to bring repair tools and have an extra tube when possible.

Dream Doers - Dream Team

Knoxville, TN

Everyone has a dream. It's part of who we are. It's in our DNA to dream but many of us have lost touch with that dream in simply surviving the rigors of life. Just because we've fallen out of touch with our dream doesn't mean it's fallen out of touch with us. Sometimes, as the nostalgic song goes, we just need a little help from our friends. It's hard doing this thing alone. So, if you have a dream, a passion, something that makes your heart beat a little faster, you're not alone. If it keeps you up at night and makes you want to get out of bed in the morning, we're here for you. If you feel like it's time and you want some support in reconnecting with and eventually mastering that dream, this group is for you, Dreamer!
