March in Toronto is a mystery… it could be sunshine and birds chirping ☀️ or a little crisp and snowy ❄️ — and honestly? That’s part of the adventure. Let’s get out of the house, breathe in that fresh winter air, stretch our legs, and enjoy one of Toronto’s most beautiful parks together. 💙 **High Park** is the city’s largest public park — full of winding trails, little hills (yes, there are a few! 😄), open green space, squirrels plotting world domination 🐿️, a mini zoo, lakefront views, and some of the prettiest natural scenery in the city.

The snow is still falling, but the winter is nearing its end. We will snowshoe the loop like we have in the past. For those who don't have snowshoes, you can hike behind us. You will need your icers. This is perfect for the first time snowshoer as the terrain is relatively flat. We will snowshoe approximately 6-7kms running parallel to the trail on fresh snow where we can get that fresh snowfall snowshoe experience, when possible. Don't forget your sunglasses. They're calling for a beautiful, sunny morning. We will explore some of the trails in Bob Hunter Memorial Park. The park is part of the Rouge National Urban Park system. The headwaters of Little Rouge Creek meanders its way through the forested valley. Come out and enjoy a beautiful morning of snowshoeing. It may be our last. **Note** * **Snowshoes and icers are mandatory!** * Arrive on time! Please don't let the group wait. * Bring water and snacks. * Dress for the conditions. * Free parking. * No dogs. * Having fun is mandatory. * Know your limits! Choose the hike that matches your fitness level. * The hike will be posted "Canceled" if the _weather doesn't cooperate. Fingers !

🚀 FIRST EVER CORE EVENT — Don’t Miss This We’re launching our very first CORE social indoor walk — and **spots are limited** Cold weather won’t stop us. **Join us for a 1-hour casual walk** around the mall at a relaxed, conversational pace. Stop in shops if you’d like — **this is about movement, community, and staying active together** After the walk, anyone who wants can continue hanging out with **optional putt putt at Scene 75** 💲 $3 secures your spot (supports future events) 🎯 Optional putt putt - pay your own ⚠️ Limited capacity — cross-posted and capped for comfort Be part of the beginning. \*\*We will meet just inside the doors of scene 75\*\* and plan to start walking \*\*once everyone arrives or 2:30\*\* which ever comes first we will walk for a **consistent hour** around the mall up and downstairs taking multiple loops if needed!

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
