🎤🍻 **NIGHT SOCIAL & KARAOKE @ TAPS BAR & GRIL**L 🍻🎤 Good Food, Good Vibes & A Mic (If You Want It) Sometimes the best way to meet people… isn’t a walk — it’s a table, a drink, and a little bit of chaos in the form of karaoke. Join us for a relaxed, social night at Taps Bar and Grill — a laid-back spot where we can hang out, eat, laugh, and (optionally) take the stage. This is one of those nights where there’s no pressure to perform, no expectations — just a group of people getting together, having a good time, and maybe cheering each other on. Sing if you want. Don’t sing if you don’t want. Either way — you’re part of the fun. 👉 **Don’t forget to join our WhatsApp group** – [CLICK HERE!](https://chat.whatsapp.com/H59mSCbsAi018gYANrKAnc?mode=ac_t) *** 🎤 What We’ll Do We’ll meet outside Taps and head in together to grab a table. From there, it’s all about settling in — ordering food, having some drinks, and getting to know each other in a relaxed, easygoing environment. Karaoke will be happening throughout the night, so if you feel like jumping in, go for it. If not, sit back, enjoy the show, and be part of the vibe. This is a great event if you’re newer to the group or just want something more low-key and social. *** 🌙 Vibe & Expectations This is a chill, welcoming night — not a performance, not a competition. It’s about: ✔️ Meeting new people ✔️ Having real conversations ✔️ Letting loose a little No pressure, no awkward setups — just a solid hang with good people, food, and something happening in the background. *** 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: Outside Taps Bar & Grill 🫎 I’ll be wearing my Moose Hat ⏰ Meetup Time: 8:30 PM I will only wait 5 minutes before heading inside, so try to be on time. 🎤 Karaoke Time: 9:30PM 🍔🍺 Part of the night is supporting the space we’re in — plan to grab at least one drink or appetizer to help keep places like this welcoming for our group *** 🎟️ Meetup Fee: $5 cash in person or e-transfer to Members who have not been to my event, have to send the e-transfer as soon as they sign up. 📧 **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** Please note: Food and drinks are separate and paid individually.

Modern Microsoft Fabric projects often start with built‑in Git integration and deployment pipelines—but at enterprise scale, those capabilities alone are rarely sufficient. As environments grow in size and complexity teams need more advanced tools and patterns to manage Fabric artifacts reliably across development, test, and production. In this session, we will: \- Review common enterprise lifecycle challenges in Microsoft Fabric \- Introduce advanced DevOps tooling and automation patterns used to address them \- Walk through a realistic implementation pattern that shows how these tools fit together in practice This session is designed for data and platform engineers and architects responsible for operating Microsoft Fabric in production. If you’re already using Git integration and deployment pipelines and are looking to extend them with more scalable, repeatable, and enterprise‑ready CI/CD practices, this session will help you understand when and how to go beyond the defaults. *Come at 5:30 pm have some pizza and chat for a bit. The presentation starts at 6:00 pm.*

This is a companion event for [Vegetarian trek for omnivores](https://www.meetup.com/hike-to-eat/events/313774090). You don't have to do the hike to join this, but it's more rewarding if you do. [Hawker](https://www.hawker.to/) is perhaps the most innovative vegan restaurant in Toronto. Drawing inspiration from one of the oldest vegetarian traditions, several of their dishes fuse Indian influences with modern sensibilities. Take their biryani, for example, spiked with smoked poblano and lavender. Other dishes reflect the global experiences of the chefs. It's fine dining standards with casual prices.

Note: This is a paid event. Tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/north-york-board-games-speed-dating-age-30-40-tickets-1985169080158?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true Join us for a fun night of speed dating in North York, followed by board games! Calling all North York singles! Join us for a fun and social evening of speed dating! Other speed dating events may get you 6-7 dates, but at 15 First Dates you'll be meeting up to 15 people! Not only that, we are holding this event at the beautiful Twilight Cafe, so your ticket includes 2 hours of board games play after speed dating ends. How speed dating works is that you will meet members of the opposite sex for quick dates, and then you will give them a yes or a no. They will then do the same thing for you. If there is a mutual match, contact information will be exchanged the next day. We will give you all needed materials, and explain the process to you once everyone has arrived. You don't need to bring anything, just come dressed for success! **This event is for people aged 30-40.** See you there!
