From OtherSelf Society - Exclusive Networking Group

Overview Step into the Roaring Twenties and join us for an exclusive networking event with professionals and live entertainment. Register through Eventbrite: [https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/otherself-the-great-gatsby-professional-networking-event-tickets-2002765194610](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/otherself-the-great-gatsby-professional-networking-event-tickets-2002765194610) ## OtherSelf: A Great Gatsby Networking Experience **Presented by Noble Media Marketing** **Step into the Roaring Twenties. Meet the person beyond the title.** For one evening, OtherSelf invites you into a world inspired by the glamour, energy, style, and social spirit of the 1920s. The **OtherSelf Great Gatsby Networking Experience** is an immersive themed networking event bringing together professionals, entrepreneurs, creatives, business owners, and community members for an evening designed around connection, conversation, entertainment, and self-expression. OtherSelf began by exploring the layered identities of women, the person behind the profession, business, title, or public image. Now, we're opening the doors wider. This next chapter invites others into the OtherSelf space while continuing to explore the idea at the heart of the campaign: **Who are you beyond what you do?** Behind every title is another story. Another passion. Another ambition. Another side of ourselves that doesn't always make it onto the business card. For one night, leave the everyday behind and step into another era. ### WHAT TO EXPECT The evening will feature: • Professional and social networking • Live entertainment • Appetizers • Creative experiences inspired by the OtherSelf concept • Opportunities to connect across industries and communities • A stylish, immersive atmosphere inspired by the Roaring Twenties This isn't your typical networking mixer. It's an opportunity to meet people differently, beyond job titles, LinkedIn profiles, and traditional introductions. A curated space to mingle. ### DRESS CODE **Roaring Twenties / Great Gatsby Inspired** Think 1920s glamour, Art Deco elegance, vintage sophistication, flapper-inspired fashion, tailored suits, pearls, feathers, suspenders, bow ties, and old-world evening style. Interpret the era in a way that feels like you. ### WHO'S INVITED? Professionals. Entrepreneurs. Business owners. Creatives. Community builders. Emerging leaders. And anyone looking to expand their circle and experience networking differently. OtherSelf is evolving into a blended community where different perspectives, industries, and identities can meet. ### VENUE Venue and additional event details will be revealed when registered. Space will be limited. **Dress for another era.** **Connect beyond the title.** **Meet your OtherSelf** Produced by **Noble Media Marketing**.

NEW TRAIL! 🍂 From Scarborough to North York: The Fall Colours Trail Walk 🌈

NEW TRAIL! 🍂 From Scarborough to North York: The Fall Colours Trail Walk 🌈

Sat, Nov 7, 4:00 PM
From Toronto Movies & Social Group - Celebrating 14 Years!
4.8

# 🍂 From Scarborough to North York: The Fall Colours Trail Walk 🌈 ### A Scenic Fall Adventure Through Trails, Ravines & Toronto History Toronto has some wonderful natural spaces tucked between its neighbourhoods, and this walk connects two of them into one longer adventure! We’ll begin in Scarborough, exploring the **Gatineau Corridor Trail**, with its wildflowers, tall grasses, and green spaces where nature is allowed to grow a little more freely. 🍁 From there, we’ll make our way along some city streets before connecting with another trail system and continuing through the surrounding ravines toward the **Rainbow Tunnel**. The tunnel is an unusual piece of Toronto history, painted in 1971 by teenager B.C. Johnson as a tribute to his friend Sigred, who died in a car accident. Although the artwork has seen better days, we’ll make a quick stop to see it before continuing toward our final destination. We’ll finish at **Shops at Don Mills**, where anyone who wants to can join us for coffee, a pastry, or something to eat after the walk. ☕🥐 This is a longer outing than some of our regular walks, but we’ll take our time, enjoy the scenery, and have a break along the way. *** ### 🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do Along the route, we’ll: * Explore the Gatineau Corridor Trail and its naturalized green spaces 🌼 * Walk through parks and neighbourhood streets * Take a break midway through the walk * Connect with the Moccasin Trail and surrounding ravine paths 🌳 * Stop briefly at the Rainbow Tunnel 🌈 * Continue to Shops at Don Mills * Finish with an optional coffee or snack with the group ☕ The walk should take approximately **3 hours**, depending on the pace of the group and the conditions along the route. **Please note:** This is a point-to-point walk. We will not return to our starting location at Dollar Tree. At the end, I’ll help anyone who needs assistance figuring out their transit options. *** ### ☀️ Weather & Expectations This walk takes place in typical Toronto weather conditions. Please dress appropriately for the forecast and wear comfortable walking shoes. The route includes a mix of paved streets, trails, and potentially uneven or unpaved surfaces. There will be some distance to cover, so this walk is best suited to people who are comfortable walking for around three hours, with breaks. This is a social walk, not a race. We’ll keep a steady pace and make time to enjoy the surroundings. 🌦️ **This event happens rain or shine!** *** ### 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 **Starting Location:** Outside the Dollar Tree near Kennedy Station 🫎 **Look for me wearing my Moose Hat!** ⏰ **Meetup Time:** 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes. **Early is on time. On time is late.** 🏁 **End Point:** Shops at Don Mills, North York 🚇 **Transit:** We’ll finish near the Eglinton line. I’ll help anyone who needs directions for getting home by transit. *** ### 🎟️ Meetup Fee **$5 cash in person or e-transfer to [mathewmaclean@hotmail.com](mailto:mathewmaclean@hotmail.com)** This fee helps support the group and allows us to continue organizing walks and other events throughout Toronto. *** ### ☕ After the Walk Once we reach Shops at Don Mills, anyone who wants to continue the outing can join us for coffee, pastries, or a bite to eat. It's a chance to relax, chat, and get to know one another after our walk. Participation is optional. *** ### 🎒 What to Bring 💧 Water 👟 Comfortable walking shoes 🥨 A snack 🧥 Weather-appropriate clothing 📱 Your phone or camera for photos *** ### 🌈 Who Is This For? This walk is great for: * People who enjoy discovering hidden parts of Toronto * Anyone interested in local history and unusual landmarks * Walkers who enjoy exploring trails and ravines * People looking to meet others and make friends * Anyone who wants to spend a few hours outdoors enjoying the fall colours The trails and Rainbow Tunnel are part of the adventure, but **the people you meet along the way are the real experience.** *** **REMEMBER:** You're welcome to RSVP ahead of time or just show up on the day if you're unsure about your schedule. Sometimes things happen and events may need to be cancelled or changed, so please keep an eye on the event page for updates. 👤 **Organizer: Mathew** Questions? Post on the event wall or email **[torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com](mailto:torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com)** **Come for the trails.** **Stay for the conversation.** **Leave with a new connection — and maybe a new friend.** 🍂💛
