\*These classes are not a language exchange, but instead are meant to be a step in between so that students feel confident maintaining in depth and grammatically correct oral conversations outside of class\* \***Meetup event numbers only tend to show new students registering and do not include returning students attending class.** **Per class, there is an average of 7 students.** The first 2 classes are free and then only cost between $15 and $35 depending on which type of class you want to continue with\* These French, English (For Spanish and French speakers only), and Spanish classes are primarily meant for adults who are travellers, or who are planning to live in a French, English, or Spanish-speaking country. The classes are primarily oral-based through guided conversations. They will teach you how to handle conversations in situations such as **"Going to the Convenience Store"**, **"Making Plans"**, **"Negotiating Prices"**, and **"Going out for a Drink"**. To ensure that students get used to using the language automatically, students will learn to maintain contextual conversations with timing before moving on to the next lesson. Call (647)787-9953, e-mail us info@monkeylingo.ca, or visit monkeylingo.ca for more information! **Online and private classes are also available!** No other language classes are as conversational as these ones. We guarantee it! Cheap parking can be found using the "Spot Hero" app.

IT'S BACK! THE ANTICIPATED FALL SHOPPING DATE AT PEPPERTREE KLASSICS! WITH AMAZING DISCOUNT! SAVE THIS DATE - Sunday October 5 12:00pm to 4:00pm at at Peppertree Fashions 137 Main Street MARKHAM (not Unionville) I have booked this shopping day for 11 years both Summer and Fall because of the award winning clothing and accessories, great discount and the amazing personal service. This discount will not be available for a couple of months to the general public and by then the stock is gone. I have been shopping in this store for OVER 30 Years - and the Owner Karen Piper asked about my group and suggested a shopping day for everyone - YES PLEASE! Over the years I have had so many compliments on my clothing pieces and shoes/boots and they all came from Peppertree! Karen has won numerous awards for her store - including female entrepreneur of the year many times - as well as Markham's favourite clothing and shoe store yearly. The selection is incredible and you will see a fabulous quality selection of items you don't see anywhere else! Customers drive from all over Ontario - and my members have driven in from Muskoka, St Catherine's and Kitchener to name only a few. Parking in front on the street or behind the store = PLEASE come to the back of the store – THIS IS A PRIVATE SALE AND NOT OPEN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC You will receive a generous discount off the entire store of new Fall fashions and accessories and did I mention the incredible service? Karen who owns the store has an incredible fun and funky selection of ladies clothing, shoes and accessories. Her clothing sells out so quickly – which is fab that we get this great discount when the store is so stocked with so many styles and sizes. The clothing literally sells so quickly you can see a completely different store of merchandise in only a few weeks. Don't wait to purchase (especially with the great discount) as the items will not be there in a couple of weeks! Guaranteed you won’t see this discount on all stock for many months. And a great time to support small business so they can stay in business!!! If you are looking to buy some Xmas gifts as well. Karen has Men’s socks and underwear – lots of amazing , scarves, purses and even some jig saw puzzles. FRIENDS AND FAMILY WELCOME!

You can e-transfer to the following email at:** **torontohistorywalks@gmail.com** Welcome to the season. Winter on the Islands is so different and so peaceful. And let's not forget the history of this special place. For summertime fun, it's hard to imagine a better place than the Toronto Islands. It's so much more than a small amusement park, Chelsea Beach, and walking and bike trails. It's about growing up in Toronto. About the ten minute ride over on the ferry boat, and the memories that have made Toronto a summertime city. It's a stretch of land that is historic and fascinating, both geologically and socially as well. And a history that brings together the stories of Toronto from its founding. The Gibraltar Point Lighthouse was constructed in 1809, and is one of the oldest structures in Toronto. It is best known for the ghost story of its murdered first keeper, John Paul Rademüller. But that's another story for another day. The peninsula was partially severed by a storm in 1852, which created a sandbar that was dangerously thin, and the peninsula became an island permanently by a violent storm that cut out the eastern channel, two hotels on the island were also destroyed. The modern history of the Islands' begins here! The Islands' have three main parts, and all three have their historic elements, the most being the western most island named for the Hanlan family. A spectacular hotel, "The Ned Hanlan" was built and a regatta course dredged out of the western lagoon. An amusement park followed, and an airport after that! It was also a residential enclave with most of the homes appearing on Ward's and Centre Islands. By the 1950s these residential areas started to disappear, as the idea of increasing city parkland took shape. **Take a quick peek at my introduction video which follows at** https://youtu.be/hkVHx5Ol9qI The tour begins and ends at the Jack Layton Ferry Terminal at the foot of Bay Street. We will meet inside the gates! And we will head over as a group, so tickets must be bought before! Please meet 10 minutes before the meetup time! This tour has a ticket price of $15.00 per person! \*\* **Please note: Please e-transfer the ticket price when booking your space for this tour! You can e-transfer to the following email at:** **torontohistorywalks@gmail.com**

Jimmy V's Grill & Pub in Grandview Heights. You are responsible for your own meal/drinks. We usually don't have any agenda other than eat, drink and talk. :) If the weather is nice we will be on the back patio, otherwise we are in the cigar room. This group has been meeting every Tuesday evening for over a decade. Many attendees do not RSVP on meetup. Please don't let the small number here discourage you. Anyone/everyone is welcome to come. We'd love to have you join us. COTA bus #5 comes to W. 5th and Wyandotte Rd. And it's a minute walk to the restaurant. *** Did you know that there are atheists everywhere?!?! You may not know it, but we are! We're in your schools, diners, police force, military, government, and some are even still in your churches! So come and join us and meet other local atheists, along with agnostics, heathens, humanists, skeptics, and anyone else who's 'hell bound'! Vision: a Central Ohio that accepts atheism as a viable alternative in all areas of public and private life. Mission: grow, support, and provide community for atheists in Central Ohio. Social meetings held most Tuesdays at a local pub/restaurant at 7:00 PM (and often into the wee hours). Attendees call themselves agnostics, skeptics, humanists, non-theists, deists or even theists. All attendees are welcome but should support our vision. Atheists of Columbus (AoC) is part of Omnipresent Atheists (OA). AoC members are invited to join this OA meetup and/or OA Facebook group ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/omnipresentatheists/ ) but are free to continue conversations on the AoC Facebook group ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/columbusatheists/ ). AoC was founded in 2012 as a networking, social group for Central Ohio area humanists, skeptics, atheists, agnostics, nonbelievers, freethinkers, and the curious. It was a member of Columbus CoR and held weekly meetings, mostly on Fridays, for several years but then operated as an online only group for some time. In November 2018, Omnipresent Atheists (OA), a group that routinely meets on Tuesdays, invited AoC to merge. Omnipresent Atheists is a member of the Columbus Coalition of Reason (ColumbusCoR.org). Omnipresent Atheists is a member of the Columbus Coalition of Reason ( http://www.ColumbusCoR.org ). Omnipresent Atheists endorses the mission of the Secular Coalition for America ( http://secular.org ).
