Hey everyone,

I'm volunteering at Session 2 and going to session 3 if anyone wants to say "Hi".

If anyone is looking for a ticket for Session 2 1pm-6pm, I have one available. We have a large group going but one person can't make it. I know this very late. PM me.

Cheers

How should we identify you. Would love to say hi, but only have interacted with you on BT.

I'll be at Session 3 as well. Umm...I'm tall and brown...In the past that would have been enough, not so sure now.

If it's a nice morning tomorrow, and I'm feeling energetic, I'm considering walking from Castle Frank Station to the Brickworks.

Has anyone here done this walk before? Is it best to walk along Bayview, or is there a more picturesque trail that is accessible at both ends?

I'll be the short red haired white guy wearing a grey GTA Brews shirt with an Erlenmeyer yeast starter. Say " Hi Eric" if you see me would love to chat with anyone.

Greg, walking on foot through Rosedale and down Milkman's Run is a pretty great walk: http://www.evergreen.ca/get-involved/ev ... itor-info/

Ha! Yeah, I guess we'll do our best to spot each other - still think we need those BTer buttons or hats or something.
