You're right, I hadn't thought of that. However, the weekend before is Mother's Day weekend. We could change it to that date, but hopefully it won't interfere with anything. Otherwise, we may have to consider the weekend after the 19th. What do you think
the diver will come! Yuri's suggestion abour the rooftop patio is a God's send, we should take charge, bring champagne and strawberries in cream, plus beer and pizzas!
Sorry to have left it so late - and even now, I can only put myself down as "maybe". Although I've only had dealings with a few of you, I do recognize a lot of your names from perusing the site. Hope I can make it & look forward to meeting everyone.
So as of yet, the date still has to be decided, and in response to Larissa's question- so does the place. Would everyone prefer to meet downtown, or is there a place within the surrounding area that may be more convenient for everyone? Let me know. Regards, JP

How would May 26th work for everyone? It looks like that might be the best one. And thank-you Yuri for suggesting the location. Keep us posted on the availability of it, and in the meantime, I'll try to pick a few other possible places in case for whatever reason the rooftop patio that you mentioned is not available.

John-Paul, if you let too many people suggest too many things, you will be in trouble. You are the organizer, hence you should propose the venue and date. Anyone who is truly interested will make the necessary arrangements to participate because a powwow does not happen every week. The only thing you should keep in mind is to select a location that is easily accessible by both public transit and private transportation.

So the date and place I've decided to go with is Saturday, May 26th at Balzac's Coffee Roastery at 55 Mill St. in the historic Distillery District of Toronto. The meeting time will be 3:00pm. I will keep you all posted with any updates, and in the meantime, those who are able to make it, please confirm. I look forward to meeting you. Regards, John-Paul

Hi Sue, Your best bet for modest lodgings are motels on the approaches to Toronto, as downtown hotels are more expensive. You could try the youth hostels (which are close the event), but book in advance.

Hello everyone! I look forward to meeting you all tomorrow. Those of you who will be there who have not had your identities verified for proz will have the opportunity to do so at the powwow if interested as I take attendance. You will have to show me a piece of photo I.D. containing the name that matches the name on your profile. See you tomorrow! Regards, John-Paul

I am very disappointed

and I wish to extend my apologies to you all. I fully expected to attend until this morning. I am further dismayed because I wanted to bring up this fall's Conference to be held in Montreal. Please vi... See more
