We will be doing a City Walk in memory of our friend and long time TBN member Irene Solom. Non-members such as Irene's friends, relatives, co-workers, and others are invited to join us.
We will meet at 10:00 AM at Christie Subway Station, at ground level, in front of the ticket booth area. The route will be a version of the "Weird Yards" walk we first did in 2015, which Irene helped to plan. We will be offering two distance options, a 7.7 Km (4.8 mi) route for experienced walkers, and a 3.0 Km (1.9 mi) route for those preferring a shorter distance. Both the longer and shorter walks will start and end at Christie Subway Station.
After the walk we will meet for lunch at a restaurant on the Danforth, a 17 minute subway ride from Christie station. We have made a reservation, but depending on the number of Irene's friends, relatives, and co-workers going for lunch, there may not be room for all the TBN walkers who would like to attend. Once we determine how many spaces are available for TBN members, we will provide updated information. (If there are TBN members who are unable to join us for lunch, I may run another walk in memory of Irene in the 2026 Winter/Spring season, just for TBN members).
Please register for the walk below (same registration for either distance). You do not have to indicate in advance which distance you intend to walk, and you can decide at 1.5 Km which route to take. Each walk participant should register individually.

The Points of Interest for the short version (3.0 Km) are:
