🍔🍦 DANFORTH BURGER & ICE CREAM WALK! 🍦🍔
🍔🍦 DANFORTH BURGER & ICE CREAM WALK! 🍦🍔
A Summer Evening Stroll, One of Toronto's Most Underrated Burgers & Giant Ice Cream Scoops
Sometimes the best events are the simplest ones.
Join us for a relaxed summer evening walk along the Danforth as we make our way from Main Street Station to Broadview Station,
enjoying one of Toronto's most vibrant neighbourhoods along the way.
This isn't about rushing from place to place. It's about getting outside, enjoying the evening, meeting new people, and sharing a couple of local favourites that many Torontonians still haven't discovered.
Our first stop will be Square Boy, a true Danforth institution that serves some of the most underrated burgers in Toronto. No fancy gimmicks. No social media hype. Just great burgers that locals have loved for decades. 🍔 They are soo goo that they ONLY TAKE CASH!
After we've eaten, we'll walk across the street to Kawartha Dairy for dessert. If you've never been before, prepare yourself.
The scoops are legendary.
Seriously.
Most first-time visitors cannot believe how much ice cream they give you. 🍦😄
Afterward, we'll continue our walk west along the Danforth toward Broadview Station, enjoying the neighbourhood, conversation, and hopefully a beautiful summer evening.

TOPHATs Places of Pride, The ArQuives, and a bit of the Hair of the Dog
Join Lawrence, you top hatted host, as we discover some of the key locations of our 2SLGBTQIA+ community in Toronto. As a queer ally, I have wanted to include a walk that covers some of the historic location in our Gay Village.
We will begin our adventure at The ArQuives, to see an exhibit The Wild and The Weeds, about Hanlan’s Point Beach is positioned as more than the site of the 1971 Gay Day Picnic.
https://arquives.ca/event/the-wild-and-the-weeds/
34 Isabella St, Toronto, ON M4Y 1N1
Then we will head over to the Foy House, a queer art gallery, owned by Georgia W. This heritage building, has survived the wrecking ball of gentrification, and hosts a monthly gayming event.
https://www.tagvenue.com/ca/rooms/toronto/67586/foy-house/first-floor
92 Isabella St, Toronto, ON M4Y 1N4
Our walk continues past the The Home Children Plaque
Beginning in 1869, British charitable societies removed children from slums and orphanages in congested industrial cities and brought them to Canada to serve as cheap farm and domestic labour.
Dr. Barnardo arranged for many *children* to be sent to *Toronto*, where they were sent to work on farms or serve as domestic help.
https://www.heritagetoronto.org/explore/barnardo-emigration-home-children/
Our next stop is the AIDS memorial in Barbara Hall Park.
Here we will stop for a moment of silence for those who died from this terrible illness.
https://www.theaidsmemorial.ca/
Next stop is the 519 Community Centre. For fifty years, The 519 has been a place where community gathers, organizes, celebrates, and shows up for one another. It’s a place to imagine something better.
August 15-22, they will host an exhibition of their
fifty years of caring for this community.
https://www.the519.org/support-the-519/50th/
519 Church St, Toronto, ON M4Y 2C9
Then we will head past the former location of Glad Day Bookshop. Opened in 1970 by [Jearld Moldenhauer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jearld_Moldenhauer "Jearld Moldenhauer"), it was the city's and Canada's first bookstore targeted to the [gay](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay "Gay") community.
If you need some Queer literature, they have relocated to 32 Lisgar.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glad_Day_Bookshop
No queer walk is complete without going to City Park Apartments, the apartment complex was vital to the development of the Church–Wellesley Village in the 1950s.
https://www.heritagetoronto.org/explore/city-park-apartments-lgbtq/
Then it's time for some beer and social time at the Hair of the Dog Pub.

Mob Programming at Mofer Coffee
Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together.
Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions.
If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming!
Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event!
Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event!
**Discord**:
We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event!
https://discord.gg/xwjDdVSw3E
**Event policy**:
* We have 0 tolerance for harassment.
* We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets.
* The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do.
* Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

Prairie PostgreSQL User Group: Proudly Sources at Midwest!
Dear Illinois Prairie PUG members,
Thank you to everyone who attended PG DATA 2026! The conference is over, but our meetups are back, and more Postgres content is coming!
Those of you who attended our May meetup are already familiar with our new (hopefully permanent) location. For others, please note that we will meet at **Chicago Innovations, 1 W. Monroe**.
This time, we are trying a two-talk format.
\- Zach Paden will present the talk **Declarative schema management with pgschema.**
\- Anna Bailliekove will present the talk **PostGIS Quick Start**
More details on talks and speakers coming soon!
*Agenda*
5:20 - doors open
5:30 - pizza arrives
6:00 - 6:10 - Hettie D. Opening remarks
6:10- 6:40 - Zach. Declarative schema management with pgschema.
6:45 - 7:10 Anna: PostGIS Quick Start
7:10 - 7:50 - Open discussion and networking
7:50 - 8:00 - Cleanup time and closing
**Speaker**: Zach Paden
Zach Paden is a tech lead at Symetra with experience ranging from scrappy startups, consulting, to large regulated enterprises. His work spans data platform, analytics and application development where he’s seen more than his fair share of projects get bogged down or catch on fire due to their schema management practices.
**Talk Title:** *Declarative schema management with pgschema*
**Talk description**
Lots of app devs struggle to understand the concept of versioning database migrations, and managing the history of these migrations can become difficult even with existing tools. Using pgschema you can write pure-sql decoratively and let pgschema derive a series of valid online migrations.
**Speaker:** Anna Bailliekova
Anna Bailliekova has been moving data around professionally for 15 years. Currently a staff engineer XeoMatrix, she focuses on helping organizations mature their data engineering practice, optimization problems, and geospatial data applications.
**Talk title:** PostGIS Quick Start
**Talk description**
PostgreSQL provides rich support for geospatial computing; using transportation examples, we will take a brief tour of these features for those who want to but have been scared to try.
*Notes about our new venue*.
I am delighted to have an independent venue for the first time since I am hosting the meetups. I hope that this will be our permanent home. And as you all know, with more freedom comes more responsibilities.
\- You will notice the change in the RSVP form\.
\- We are thankful to our hosts and promise to be responsible\.
\- We comply with the [PostgreSQL Code of Conduct](https://www.postgresql.org/about/policies/coc/).
\- We do not want to waste food\, so please indicate your dietary preferences\.
\- We will not close RSVPs on the morning of the meetup\, but please do your best to RSVP in advance so we can order the appropriate amount of food and drinks\.
\- We want to start offering **on-site daycare**. If you indicate on your RSVP that you are planning to use daycare, we will contact you closer to the event with more information.
This meetup will be hybrid - please don't forget to indicate whether you are attending in-person or virtually.
Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you all at our new location!
