🌿🌸 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) *** 🧺 Picnic Break We’ll take a relaxing break at James Gardens and have a little informal picnic together. 🥨 Feel free to bring: ✔️ A snack to share ✔️ Something sweet ✔️ Fruit, chips, cookies, etc. Nothing fancy — just a fun community vibe. *** 🚶‍♂️ What We’ll Do We’ll walk along the Humber River trails, make our way into James Gardens for a break, then continue our walk before eventually heading back toward the station. Expect: 🌿 Nature trails 🌸 Garden views 📸 Great photo spots 😊 Easy conversation and a relaxed pace *** 🌧️ Weather & Expectations This event happens rain or shine. Please come prepared for: ✔️ Outdoor conditions ✔️ Some muddy sections if it rains ✔️ A longer walk at a steady pace *** 🧢 Meetup Details 📍 Meetup Location: Outside the station 🫎 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. 📍 Ending Spot: Back at the station *** 🎟️ Meetup Fee: $5 cash in person or e-transfer to 📧 **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** This fee helps support the group and allows us to continue hosting events like this.
