Monday! - CN Tower Tomorrow

Welcome back. It was a beautiful weekend for Toronto Island and Casa Loma. I enjoyed the relaxation the trips myself, although I have been to Casa Loma a few too many times for it to be exciting.

Tomorrow we have the CN Tower Tour.... but the weather looks really terrible. We may have to reschedule the tour for later in the month. Baseball is on Wednesday and if you haven't seen me today to pay for tickets I am afraid you are out of luck. We will see another game next month so don't be too disappointed.

The location of Club night is still being decided. I will announce the location tomorrow on KGIC This Week.

CONQUEST CANADA SUMMARY!

Here is the summary of Conquest Canada 2007. Just a short video of our time last week. It was a hilarious, amazing and tiring trip. I have no activities this weekend just so that I may recover. Enjoy the video and be sure to join us next year!!!



Also the concert yesterday was pretty lame, but the Mayor of Toronto, David Miller stopped by our table to say hi. He's really nice! Also don't forget NXNE concerts this weekend. 400+ bands will be in Toronto for shows all weekend long. Sometime 10 bands a night in some bars. This is one of the best weekends of the summer for lovers of Rock, Rap and Punk music. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

NXNE Launch Tonight!

Sorry guys. I still don't have the Conquest Canada video finished yet. It takes time to edit 2+ hours of video into something interesting. It should be ready tomorrow sometime, but I can show you this amazing piece of work from RV 1 and 2. This is on the last night of the trip, I am not sure what time but I guess after 1 am.



Can you guess why the police and parks officers had to visit our camp so often?

Also, tonight in Toronto is the beginning of the North by North East music festival. This is an amazing 4 day event of independent music. There are about a million concerts this weekend. If you are a fan of Rock, Rap or Punk this is a good weekend for YOU!

Check out the website listed above, or join Trevor tonight after class at 4:30 to check out the launch concert.

Talk to you soon!

Also June Activities!

We're BACK!

WOW! Conquest Canada was fantastic! We had an amazing time on this trip. Thanks to all the participants. It was a great group of students who joined us. Thanks for all the help from KGIC staff and the amazing DUMPING CREW! We could not have done it without you.
