alt.Sunday, This one's going to be all about eating and hanging out. Judi says she's going to make us all waffles (details in the blurb next week) so we can share food, conversation and connection. These are exactly the sort of times together that have gone missing during the pandemic, so (if you want) you can think of this as something like "waffle recovery therapy" (not an official thing as far as I know, but maybe history will say we started a trend). We may also experiment with "speed waffling". And no - I'm not going to explain what that is.

Gathering in-person: We meet every Sunday (except the third Sunday of each month) from 10:45 a.m. - 1:00 noon at 170 Scott Street, also know as The Rainbow Resource Centre. Watch our Facebook group or weekly e-mail for more details.

PARKING YOUR BIKE

A bike rack is located next to the front entrance.

PARKING YOUR CAR

There is a small parking lot behind the building, off Wardlaw Avenue, that is open to the public.

Do not park in the small lot beside our building, off Scott Street, as it belongs to a different organization.

There is plenty of street parking on Scott Street, Wardlaw Avenue, Gertrude Avenue, and Stradbrook Avenue. There is no time limit for street parking, but be aware of “No Stopping” zones. Ensure you are parked far enough away from sidewalks and intersections to avoid tickets, as parking patrol officers are in the neighbourhood daily.

BUS STOPS

The following busses stop within walking distance of the Rainbow Resource Centre: 16, 18, 39, 58, 60, 68, 99, and 185. These busses all have stops on Osborne Street. The 68, 99, and 185 also stop on Stradbrook Avenue. The 99 also stops on Donald Street.

Rainbow Resource Centre is within walking distance of Harkness Station (7 minute walk) and Osborne Station (8 minute walk). The following busses stop at both stations: 64, 65, 66, 137, 160, 161, 162, 163, 170, 180, 181, and 183. Bus 185 stops at Osborne Station only.

ACCESSIBILITY

The Centre is working on improving accessibility. The front door has a ramp and powered door, and from here, all main floor spaces, including OARS and The Qube, are accessible. Unfortunately, the washrooms are too small for most wheelchairs.
