Starting in mid-October, TBN will again be running a full program of City Walks. As we have done in the last few years, we will run about 10 of our regular, pre-planned walks, which will take us to mid-December, and then follow it in January with our informal walks through the winter until the weather is nice enough to start biking again.
If you would like to contribute some ideas, perhaps lead a walk or two, get together with some of your walking buddies, are curious about the City Walk program, or perhaps would just like to have a beverage or two, please join us on Saturday, August 18, 2018 at 2:00 PM at the Monarch Tavern for a planning meeting. We will be upstairs on the 2nd floor.
The Monarch Tavern is located at 12 Clinton Street, one block south of College St., on the corner of Clinton and Henderson St. To get there you can:
- take the subway to Bathurst station and ride the streetcar south to College, then walk west to Clinton, and south to Henderson,
- or take the 506 streetcar along College to Clinton, and walk south to Henderson,
- or take the 505 streetcar along Dundas to Grace Street, walk north to Mansfield Ave, east to Clinton, and then north to Henderson
Note that there is currently a scheduled subway closure on Line 1 (Yonge Line) for this date, between Lawrence and Yonge-Bloor stations, in case that affects your travel time. However, before heading out, please check the TTC Scheduled Subway Closures site at https://www.ttc.ca/Service_Advisories/Subway_closures/index.jsp to see if this has changed. Also, check for other TTC bus or streetcar diversions at https://www.ttc.ca/Service_Advisories/Route_diversions/index.jsp.
If you not able to make it but are interested in having some input, please email me at citywalks@tbn.ca. If you are interested in leading a walk, please let me know what dates you would be interested in and which walks you would be interested in leading. Note that you must be a TBN member to lead a walk.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at citywalks@tbn.ca.
