🌿🌸 HUMBER RIVER WALK & JAMES GARDENS PICNIC 🌸🌿
Riverside Trails, Hidden Gardens & A Relaxed Long Weekend Walk
Join us for a peaceful social walk along the beautiful Humber River as we enjoy the final stretch of the long weekend together.
This route combines riverside trails, greenery, and one of Toronto’s most underrated hidden gems: James Gardens.
James Gardens is one of those places that quietly surprises people — flower beds, stone pathways, little bridges, mature trees, and spaces that feel far away from the city even though you’re still in Toronto.
This is not a fast-paced hike.
It’s a relaxed social walk with time to chat, enjoy the scenery, and slow down a little.
📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd)

We’ll meet at 11:00 AM across the street from Balzac’s Coffee on Market Street. From there, we’ll head into St. Lawrence Market for a stroll, grabbing lunch/coffee and checking out the area, including the Sunday antique market for anyone interested.

At Sugar Beach, we’ll unwind—read a book, listen to music, chat, and enjoy the sun together by the water.

CMG Gives Back: Serve Dinner at FAITH MISSION GRANT KITCHEN!
Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event:
FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.
PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants.
LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details:
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events!
Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
