August 23 Riverdale Farm
Discover this tiny jewel of agriculture right in the middle of our city! Bring your camera, snacks, water, walking shoes, and maybe an umbrella. If your in-laws, building superintendent, neighbourhood burglar, washing machine, or pet goldfish want to come along, too, you may bring them in tow, by all means.
Those who are going by TTC, let's meet in front of the coffee shop inside Don Mills Station at 9:30 a.m. Remember to get a TTC transfer! As it is a school event, you should not have any difficulty finding the group.

Bleak, dreary, and quite miserable four years ago ... Let's hope we get better weather this time!

August 15 Tasty Thursday & City Hall
They all will be there, we're told, when our class goes to visit City Hall and one of this summer's famous Tasty Thursdays!
Bring along family, cameras, sunblock, sunglasses, umbrella, in-laws, pets, Ripstiks, Rollerblades, and the kitchen sink, and $7 for each person (if you're planning to buy lunch there). And be ready for a good time!
Let's meet at 9:30 a.m. at Bayview Station's westbound platform. The plan is to jump off at Queen Station and walk over to Nathan Phillips Square via the Old City Hall. Those who would like to meet at the current City Hall's entrance should look out for us around 10:15 a.m.
August 2 Scarborough Ribfest
Welcome to
Scarborough's annual festival of barbecued ribs and corn and gigantic onions! Have a look at how the locals have been spending their summers from time immemorial. See what community events can happen when volunteers get together and do something, in this case the Rotary Club of Scarborough.
Bring a pocket full of change, or bring your own lunch, and
let's have a great picnic there. We could carpool there and perhaps swing by a thrift store and a cookie factory on the way!
leave at 9:30 a.m.
