    I am tentatively planning an event for all JW's/Ex-Jws who want to attend.

    Mid August, I would like to have a picnic either at Wasaga Beach (an hour north of Toronto) or at Toronto Island.

    A lot will depend on interest shown and where people are travelling from for it.

    Let me know who is interested and we can plan accordingly. Feel free to post this on other JW boards you may frequent. "Bad Association" is guaranteed! :)

    Anyone interested can write to me at my H20 Mod address.

    If you are coming up from the States, Toronto is about 1.5 hours from Buffalo. I can also look into accomodations for those needing them.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Kis,

    I might want to go.
    Used to live about 40 mins. north of Toronto. Wasaga Beach sounds vaguely familiar, but where is Toronto Island????

    Toronto Island is right across the harbour from the CN Tower. You have to take a Ferry across the harbour to get there.

    Centre Island is part of "Toronto Island" where the Amusement Park is and the West Island is great for picnics, barbeques, volleyball etc. Toronto Island airport is also on the West side of the Island. Starting to sound familiar yet?

    hell for those so inclined the Nude Beach is a 10 minute walk from where the picnic area is..to each their own. :)

    Let me know.

    The other option is the July 4th Weekend but to be held in Massachusetts.

    I will be there for the fireworks and July 4th celebrations. I am also excited since it will also be my first ever birthday (July 2) party with my Father!! yea!!!!!

    So if anyone wants to share in these festivities let me know and we can arrange something.

    I'd be interested.

    Though Toronto doesn't seem to be a hotbed of apostasy at the moment (yet!).

    If no barbecue, how about a beer?

    p.s. Kismet, if in fact you're a bethel agent, I will of course have to terminate you to protect my identity.

    Hi Bro,

    Kismet we would love to join You and Co. We are desperate for friendship. Wasaga Beach sounds inviting!

    Toronto Island,for us has a ring of vulnerability for this sort of meeting, after all we are still running under cover from "The Committee".

    P.S. Still looking forward to meeting with you.

    That works both ways my friend... and I will be the guy with the barbeque fork!! :)

    Bethelites are not welcome unless they bring me a copy of the new elder's manual and/or the latest Society CD Rom

    Contact me privately at the email listed above and I'll give you my personal info if it will make you more comfortable.

    i gather by the lack of response in this thread that toronto indeed is not a 'hotbed of apostasy'

    i would likely be unable to join a group but would like to hear about the details nonetheless, u never know.

    Ah, yes! That little island across from the CN Tower is officially "Toronto Island"? Only knew it as Centre Island.

    Mid-August sounds good to me. We still have friends in Burlington, so we could make the outing and visit friends as well. (I'd be driving up from Detroit.) Black flies are waaaaaaay gone by then, right?
