Hey, excellent news, Mike. I'm going to try hard to get there. The timing might be a touch tight because of where I park on the GO line vs where I work vs where the meeting is, but I'm going to do my darndest to work out the logistics. I assume that you will have cops there so nobody chews gum, right? ;)
>Just FYI, I already booked it at the Toronto Public Library North York Central location. That's 5120 Yonge Street north of Yonge and Sheppard. Meeting Room 1. Wednesday, February 1st, 2006 from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.

>>Some location ideas...
>>- a conference room at the employer of one of your attendees
>>- local library (other government buildings)
>>- when I lived in North Carolina, we met free of charge in the meeting room of a local hospital
>>- chamber of commerce
>>- Microsoft
>>- same location as your local .Net group

>>>Hey all
>>>
>>>Over the past month or so I've been trying to get a location for a Toronto FoxPro user's group. Numerous emails to York University went unanswered. I finally got a phone call back and they want a 5 million dollar comprehensive general liability insurance policy. I checked with my insurance company and they're going to get back to me on it. Why should I pay for that?

>>>The school board hasn't really got any good facilities. I'm down to using the North York library, which provides different kinds of rooms including a big auditorium. It's at Yonge and Sheppard. I'm waiting for confirmation from them for Wednesday February 1st from 6 - 8 p.m. So there's nothing definite. This is just a heads up.
