Anyone heading up from our area want to make it a drive together? London Woodstock area

I think we settled on Saturday, June 26, Wendy.

Let's start a list and see who is going, now that it is June, and what time will you arrive?

[Lynda Silk]

I was planning on attending; after all, it's my first DIS meet!

I thought we said the Toronto Zoo on June 26; all we needed was a time and a place to meet.

 

[TimNDansMom]

Looking forward to meeting you Lynda!

What time does everyone want to meet?

 

[Lynda Silk]

Looking forward to meeting you too, Julie, and the other DISers too! It'll be nice to put a face to a username!

I can be there any time after 1:30pm.

I won't be in Toronto till later in the summer. Maybe I can make one then. Have fun! Ride a coaster for me!

 

[Alysa]

Just tell me when and where! This will be my first meet - I will definitely bring the girl and DH if he isn't working...
Unfortunately I don't own anything lime green - we will be the Mom and incredibly cute baby! (Hmm - there might be a few moms and babys, eh?)

 

[Scratch42]

As it turns out my building is planning a Garage Sale that day and if we meet later in the day then we can make it! Need that money for the cruise!LOL

As for where to meet, I have not been to the Zoo for quite a few years! so can't make any suggestions.

Does that mean you can meet at 1:30pm or does it need to be later?

Wendy

 

[Lynda Silk]

I can be there at 1:30pm. Are we going with that time then?

I haven't been to the zoo for a few years either so I can't suggest a meeting place.

Sorry, but we're not going to be able to make it...so many committments have come up...such a busy time for us...but to everyone going, have a great time

Here is the website: www.torontozoo.com

Here is a map of the zoo: http://www.torontozoo.com/images/img_zoomap.gif

Place your cursor in the lower right hand corner of the map to enlarge it.

Zoo hours are 9am ~ 7:30pm with last admission at 6:30pm

If everyone is going to arrive around 1:30 there are a few spots we could meet up at. Just looking at the map, Guest Services is to the left of the admission gates and there's the Peacock Café there, or the Greenhouse Gift shop to the right or the Main Gift Shop a little further and to the right of the admission gates.

[Lynda Silk]

Why don't we say 1:30pm in front of the Greenhouse Gift Shop? That way, we can pop in and out of the gift shop if it's too hot!

 

[LisaSt]

Any chance of a group rate if we have enough people going?

 

[TimNDansMom]

I thought of the group rate too, Lisa, but at the moment I don't think we have 20 people going. I think this has to be arranged in advance too.

In front of the Greenhouse Gift Shop at 1:30 is fine with me, Lynda.

 

[Scratch42]

That way I can make a little money and still have fun!

See you all there!

I wish I could make it this time but I'll have to be there in spirit while my body is preparing for DH's retirement party that night.( I do want to meet some fellow Dis'ers in the near future though so I'll keep watching for other meets).

Have a great time for me too would ya?

Someone will have to get a sunburn for me, I always get a sunburn when I go to the Zoo.
