Offsite Walks!
A reminder there is an offsite walk on Centre Island this Thursday the 27th. Be at the docks in time to get tickets and board the 6:00 pm ferry to Hanlan’s Point. We will walk to Ward’s Island for the return ferry scheduled for 7:45.
After-walk refreshments will be at Irene near Sugar Beach behind the Corus building.
Car pooling is recommended so get in touch with others so we can save a bit on parking, or for the adventurous (or those with time on your hands), there is the TTC.
We’ve had a few suggestions for future walks. The first Rattray Marsh Conservation Area in Mississauga. The trails are short but could could suit many.
For further consideration, this hike may be of interest to some of the Shore Things who have flirted with the idea of hiking the Bruce Trail. Seems like there is a branch in our own backyard.
You have to be a member to sign up – membership is $50, which is tax
deductible. Ruth has signed up and will endeavor to take notes of the route, in case we want to do it at some later date, maybe for Fall colours?
Birthdays Missed
Mille excuses to Marie for her missed birthday last week. My digital calendar is undergoing review. Bon anniversaire!
Also happy birthday to Laura who was also missed in last week’s post but will likely catch best wishes as this post will likely hit your inboxes on the actual day, Friday.
Weekly Walks
Saturday looks perrrfect! Let’s all gather at the usual for the usual. Maybe a bit extra distance since it’s so nice? Time to visit the lighthouse?

I plan to walk the Island…still deciding if I will take ttc as it is rush hour and the crazy closures/detours may not be worth the drive. Anyone else thinking of ttcing it…maybe we can meet up?

Unable to join the walkers on Saturday. Need to be in Mississauga. The Island Walk doesn’t work for me. Rattray Marsh sounds very inviting – back in my former community. Spend many hours walking those trails. That said, it is fairly short for some of you.
