DIY : OSU walking tour

June 1st, 2015

OSUtourFrontNone of us were able to attend the walking history tour Larry Landis hosted back on Mother’s Day. BUT. Tianhong found another way we can take part in this sort of activity! She acquired a packet of pamphlets from Susan Padgett, in the Oak Creek Building by 30th street. Feel free to stop by and ask Tianhong if she has any more pamphlets.

Also you can surf by http://tour.library.oregonstate.edu/ to grab the app!

edit: plus, i’ll put a photo of the back of the flyer after the break, so you can read through it all surreptitiously here online.

Darkside offers a free (old) movie each Tuesday @7pm

April 20th, 2015

Ygal Kaufman hosts a free movie each Tuesday night at Darkside Cinemas, and offers some brief trivia to kick each film off.

If you’re planning to go, leave a comment and we’ll try to join you (maybe mention why that week’s movie is exciting). (for example: warren is thinking of going on the 28th, because Fritz Lang was a visionary. If anyone else wants to go, he’ll be 100% more likely to be there).

Ecampus Yoga Class

April 1st, 2015

Linda Coulson, of Peace, Love and Yoga studio in downtown Corvallis has agreed to a private yoga session for Ecampus on Wednesday, April 8 at 5:30 p.m. The yin yoga that she offers basically erases the aches and pains associated with sitting in a desk all day; it’s that good! All levels of ability are welcome.  You don’t need to bring anything with you, she will provide all of the mats and props that you will need. Just be sure to wear clothes that are comfortable and allow you to stretch out.

Because the studio has limited space, 9 people can practice comfortably (10 including Linda), please sign up as soon as you can if you are interested. Amy Theis can answer most questions that you may have, or you may contact Linda directly through her website.

Linda is providing the course for $50 regardless of how many people attend, so the closer we get to 9, the less it will cost each person. Although this was created for Ecampus employees, there may be opportunities for family members to attend if less than 9 employees are interested.

Are you interested, but can attend on the 8th? Let us know so we can set up more opportunities like this!
