🌳☕ **ST. CLAIR WEST VILLAGE WALK, WYCHWOOD PARK & COFFEE** ☕🌳 Hidden Streets, Storybook Homes & A Cozy Café Finish Some parts of Toronto feel like you’ve accidentally stepped into another world. Join us for a relaxed social walk through **St. Clair West**, leading into the quietly tucked-away and exclusive **Wychwood Park** — one of the city’s most unique residential enclaves. Wychwood Park is private, residential, and unlike anywhere else in Toronto. The homes are all architecturally distinct — no cookie-cutter builds here — and living there involves a waiting list, a board approval process, and community guidelines that preserve its character. It feels almost village-like… peaceful, artistic, and slightly secret. This is not a formal historical tour. It’s a social walk with beautiful surroundings and good conversation. 👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) \*\*\* 🚶‍♂️ **What We’ll Do** We’ll begin by walking west along St. Clair, enjoying the neighbourhood energy before heading into Wychwood Park for a gentle wander through its winding streets. Afterward, we’ll make a short stop at **Artscape Wychwood Barns** to peek into the market space, next we make a quick stop at Mr. Binz where everything starts at $25 and after we will head to **Bakery Garden Cafe** for a warm drink and time to sit, chat, and connect. Sometimes the best part of the walk is the pause at the end. ☕ We’ll eventually make our way back toward St. Clair Subway Station. You’re welcome to leave at any time. \*\*\* ❄️ **Weather & Expectations** Please do not sign up if you’re not ready to walk in real winter conditions. This event will happen in snow, cold, or typical Toronto winter weather. The only exception: if temperatures reach -20°C, the event will be canceled. Bundle up. Dress properly. This is a winter walk. Also — this is NOT a historical tour. I’ll share context casually, but the focus is social connection and enjoying the neighbourhood. \*\*\* 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: Outside the station by McDonald’s 🫎 I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat ⏰ Meetup Time: 11:00 AM I will only wait 5 minutes. Early is on time. On time is late. We will leave promptly, and I won’t be able to spend time trying to track people down — thank you for respecting everyone’s time. \*\*\* 🎟️ **Meetup Fee:** $5 cash in person **or** e-transfer to 📧 \*\*[mathewmaclean@hotmail.com**](http://mathewmaclean@hotmail.com%2A%2A/) This fee helps support the group and allows us to keep hosting events like this. Thank you for supporting community! 💖 \*\*\* 🎒 What to Bring * Water or a warm drink * Good walking shoes * A small snack * Warm clothing (boots, hat, gloves — layers!) * Mask (if you prefer for indoor stops) Please also use the washroom before arriving, as stops are limited. \*\*\* 📚 Learn More Interested in reading more about Wychwood Park before we go [Click Here](https://www.thestar.com/news/insight/2012/12/21/inside_the_weird_world_of_wychwood_park.html)? 🌈 Who Is This For? This group is open to anyone who wants to be social and make friends — whether single or not. We also host: 🎬 Movies 🚶 Walks & hikes 🎭 Arts & culture outings 🍽️ Restaurant gatherings There’s always something happening. \*\*\* REMEMBER: You’re welcome to just show up on the day if you’re unsure about your schedule. And as always, sometimes plans shift and events may need to be canceled — please keep an eye on updates. \*\*\* 👤 Organizer: Mathew Questions? Post on the event wall or email 📧 [torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com](mailto:torontomoviesandoutings@hotmail.com) Come for the hidden streets. Stay for the cozy coffee. Leave feeling like you discovered a pocket of the city most people never see. There’s something special about wandering somewhere that feels quietly exclusive — especially when you’re not wandering alone. 🌳✨

Join our weekly walking meetup to have fun, maintain a healthy lifestyle, meet new people, and enjoy the weather! We meet Saturdays at 10am, halfway between the Reston *Container Store* and *Not Your Average Joes* (by the metal benches), leaving no later than 10:05. Every week, rain or shine, we start by walking along the Green Trail to reach Lake Anne Community Center. Once there, we pause for water/bio (often staying a few minutes extra from April-November, due to the local Farmer's Market), and then we circle Lake Anne and head back to our starting point. It's roughly 3-4 miles and takes about an hour and a half. Afterwards, some members will often head to *Not Your Average Joes* or another local restaurant for a quick drink/meal before tackling the day. This event is open to all ages and fitness levels. Dogs are welcome, and we recommend dressing for the weather (umbrella, water, snow shoes, hat, etc.) since we'll walk rain or shine. Also, feel free to bring a friend! By signing up, you accept and assume all risks and responsibilities with this activity, and nobody will be held liable.
