On July 3rd, see the Island in a way you've never seen it - an 'insiders' bike tour of the history, geography, flora and fauna, that has made the Toronto Islands so special. The Toronto Island Grannies in Spirit, who raise funds for the Stephen Lewis Foundation, will be hosting, in partnership with the Great Waterfront Trail Adventure, a self-guided tour which will share our local knowledge of many lesser-known sites of interest from Hanlans Point to Wards island. This will include two special opportunities : although not normally open to the public, there will be access to the historic - and purportedly haunted - Gibraltar Point Lighthouse , and the delightfully small architectural gem from 1888,the Church of St Andrew-by-the-Lake, with its magnificent stained glass windows.

The tour will be followed by a delicious island-cooked buffet dinner at the Algonquin Island Association clubhouse, where one can relax on the large deck and enjoy a cool drink while viewing the Toronto skyline from this unique vantage point.

Tickets are $40.00. All proceeds go to The Stephen Lewis Foundation to support their tireless efforts to turn the tide of Aids in Africa by supporting small, grassroots, often grandmother-led organizations.

When? Sunday July 3rd from 2 until 8. [ Hours very flexible]
Dinner served between 5 and 8.

Where? Toronto Islands, any starting point, detailed insiders map will be part of the ticket.
