OP - w NY Cares you have to take a 1 hr intro then you can sign up for stuff during the week or on the weekend. Have only done one (was helping at a nearby community garden) but it’s been on my list of things to do again. My non profit meets once a month. And classes are usually once a week in the evening for a specific amount of time. You can do summer vs winter activities!

It can be, but I’m excluding it in search of other hobbies 🧐

I’d second the food, so many great restaurants, and the best ones are tucked away and hidden.
