Then join us! Did you come of age during the Cold War and scandals like the Iran Contra affair? Did you spend hours watching MTV when all it showed were 24-hour music videos? Did you play with a Rubik's Cube or try to clear the last level of Pac Man? Did you ever have the hallmark "big hair?" Do you rem …

Join us for weekly group runs on Saturday AMs and Tuesday PMs. We run up to 5 miles and do a great mix of running workouts. Every run starts with an easy group pace before we split into levels appropriate for your level. All levels welcome, from just past the 26.2 finish line to just off the couch. Some run races, some just love a reason to be outside. Here's the secret: you don't have to be or become a runner to run! If you are interested in better running technique, or running pain free, Coach …

Want to see the future of exercise? Look backward. We're joining the pillars of the original training halls: kettlebells and swinging clubs. The old ways emphasized skill over brawn, gathered traditions from around the world, connected body and brain, and held health paramount. Can we get an amen? Kettlebell practice mixes strength and cardio together—so you'll metabolize those expanding energy stores faster than conventional exercise (and studies prove it!). The integrated, natural movements …

Our money?  Our child? .... Our decision! This meetup brings various people together to reclaim the right of parents to decide which school their child should attend. We awaken parents that it is their responsibility to guide their child's education  -- no other adult in the system understands their unique child better, or is more invested in their specific child's future.  This responsibility cannot be safely handed off to any other adult. We empower parents by educating them about the entire r …

This group is for hikers who enjoy easy or moderate trails, or who want to try more advanced hikes but at a slower pace than many of the other hiking groups.  Our goal is to enjoy hiking at a slow and steady pace, for everyone to make it to the top and back down again without any pressure to go at a faster pace than your true comfort level.  It is not a race, let's hit the trails and enjoy the journey!

Any one interested in walking, running, or bicycling. Let's keep our brains and bodies healthy and active!

This group is for everyone! Individuals, families, small business owners, self-employed, and anyone who wants to take control of their financial lives are welcome. Most of us never learned about financial planning and money management in school or in college. Much of what we do comes from listening to friends and family, reading books and online articles. Most of us never think about how to plan our finances, and by the time we get to it, it is usually too late to change anything. Instead of avo …

The Parent Network and Medfield Youth Outreach have partnered with Medfield Public Library to host the first in a series of book groups for parents promoting acceptance and anti-bullying conversations. It is our belief that conversatio …
