Toronto Vegan Climbing - Basecamp Bloor
Join us at our vegan-friendly social climbing session!
We welcome all vegans, vegetarians, or anyone who is curious about the lifestyle and/or interested in eating more plant-based.
No climbing experience is necessary. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a first-time climber, all are welcome. We will be bouldering, top roping, and using autobelays - feel free to join whichever activity you're interested in!
For those who are climbing for the first time, not to worry as it is quick to pick up and we are happy to provide some pointers on technique. You can boulder or use the autobelays after getting a quick orientation from the staff at the gym. For top roping, we're happy to belay any of our attendees.
**Fees**:
* $28 admission fee, plus rentals
Climbing shoes are strongly recommended (disclaimer: rental shoes are not vegan as they contain suede/leather). Harnesses are only necessary for top roping and autobelay, however this gym is primarily a rope climbing gym.
* Shoe rental: $7.00
* Harness rental: $7.00
Remember to sign the [waiver](https://waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5f121ea156df1/web/) before you hit the rocks! You can sign the waiver online or in person once you arrive. Make sure to arrive at the Bloor location, there are multiple Basecamp locations!
Happy climbing! 🧗♂️🌱
Note: Clean indoor shoes are allowed to be worn, however we highly recommend using climbing shoes otherwise your experience will be negatively impacted.

One Year Anniversary of Vegan Potlucks and Games + Karaoke
NOTE: IF YOU HAVE COLD/ FLU SYMPTOMS PLEASE DO NOT ATTEND THE EVENT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
We are celebrating one year of vegan potlucks and fun through the Scarborough Vegans (Facebook) group!
This potluck will start with an arrival time by 12:15 p.m. We will start eating at 1 PM SHARP followed by games and karaoke.
If you have a game please bring it! I will bring a few.
PLEASE bring enough food for 4-6 people. Bring your own utensils, plates, bowls, and cup as the centre does not always have an adequate supply of these. You are responsible for your own clean-up and if you borrow the items at the centre please clean them.
To find the room: Go through the main doors from the parking lot on the north side of the building. Before you get to the next set of doors (that are straight ahead), turn left through this door (there should be a sign that says Scarborough Vegans); and now go to almost the end of the hallway and it will be on the right hand side.
All are welcome veg-curious, vegetarian, and vegan as long as what you bring to the potluck is vegan!
We hope that you will join us!o

The Toronto PATH and Lunch
Come and join us for a walk through the PATH, Toronto's underground pedestrian walking network.
We're doing something different while the forest trails start to transition from winter to summer.
We will meet at Union Station in the Great Hall (see pic). We will make our way north to the Eaton Center. From there, we will head south, completing a loop as we make our way to The Old Spaghetti Factory ([https://www.osf.com/](https://www.osf.com/)) for a late lunch. We will make changes to the route in order for us to arrive at the restaurant on time (2pm).
Plenty of breaks along the way and if you haven't attended one of our events before, come out and meet the group.
The PATH is a mostly underground pedestrian walkway network in downtown Toronto that spans more than 30 kilometers of restaurants, shopping, services, and entertainment accommodating more than 200,000 business-day commuters as well as tourists and residents.

Park Club at the Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve
Welcome to the first Park Club of 2026!
Drake Khazal has recommended Banshee Reeks Nature Preserve in Loudon County, saying "It's not a very demanding hike because it's mostly flat land, so it's a nice leisurely stroll. Also lots of water and open meadow, when I was there lots of wild flowers but since we'll be heading there in mid march and it'll still be a bit cold they may only just be starting to pop up out of the soil. Also it's a nature preserve so lots of wildlife we may not get a chance to see elsewhere in NoVa, assorted birds and even some larger fauna (if we're lucky but they're very shy)"
As in the past, we'll be meeting up and taking a look around, walking a trail, and enjoying nature and conversation. A nice chill activity for anyone to join whether you are a member of CCAN, a passionate environmentalist, or simply a person who loves nature.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
🥘 What’s Your Go-To Dish? | Potluck + Casual Lunch (Ashburn)
⚡ **What’s Your Go-To Dish?**
The one you make when you don’t want to experiment.
The one that always works.
The one you trust.
Bring that.
Join us for a relaxed, small-group potluck lunch held in our "Startup Garage" — a spacious, bright, comfortable living-room style space inside a single-family home. Think couches, real food, and meaningful conversation — not an actual garage 😊
Many of us have a go-to move — in the kitchen and in life. If you’d like, share why it’s yours. Funny, practical, meaningful — your call.
🕐 1:00–4:00 PM (arrive between 1:00–1:30 PM)
**What to Bring**
1. A dish (homemade or store-bought — no pressure)
2. A short explanation behind it (optional)
**Who Typically Attends**
• Professionals in their 30s–40s–50s
• Entrepreneurs and builders
• Divorced or separated individuals navigating what’s next
• People who prefer substance over surface level talk
**What You’ll Experience**
• Smart, grounded adults
• Humor, laughter and perspective
• Conversation that flows naturally
• A relaxed, low-key Sunday atmosphere
No spotlight. No forced sharing. Just solid food and solid company.
This is a free community event designed to strengthen real connection within the Midlife Reinvention community.
Space is intentionally capped to keep it comfortable.
**Full address (Ashburn - 20147) and parking details are emailed 2–3 days before the event.**

Rockville Vegans will be picking up trash on the outside of Poplar Spring Animal Sanctuary as part of their adopt-a-highway program. Poplar will provide all the supplies - gloves, bags, and visibility vests. We will be parking just inside the gate as you enter the farm property.
Kensington MD Walk
We'll meet at the Wheaton Metro Station near the intersection of Georgia Ave and Reedie Drive. We'll walk Southwest toward Saint Paul's Park and then back east on Plyer's Mill Road back to the Metro. Total walk time should be about 1 hour 30 minutes and total distance is about 4.5 miles.
🌿 Sunday Morning Hike & Coffee Conversation
**Black Hill Regional Park → Paris Baguette (Germantown)**
**Sunday \| March 22\, 2026 \| 10:00 AM**
**Join us for a Sunday morning in nature, centered on meaningful conversation along the trail.**
**We’ll meet at the Black Hill Regional Park Visitor Center parking lot around 10:00 AM and spend about 60–90 minutes on the scenic lake trails, surrounded by water, trees, and open sky. The morning setting offers space to be present, notice the landscape, and let conversation unfold naturally as we walk.**
**After our time on the trails, we’ll continue on to Paris Baguette in Germantown Town Center for coffee or a pastry and keep the conversation going.**
**This group is for gay men who enjoy being outdoors, care about how food is grown and gathered, appreciate thoughtful conversation, and value authentic friendships built at a natural pace. This is not a hookup space, a dating pool, a nightlife extension, or a professional networking circle. The aim is simply to share time outdoors, exchange ideas, and see what connections take root from there.**
**What to bring:**
* **Comfortable walking shoes**
* **Water**
* **Weather-appropriate layers**
**Feel free to arrive a few minutes early so we can gather and get started together.**
