Hi everyone,
This Saturday (20 June) Wireless Toronto will be participating in the BIG on Bloor street festival.
The plan is to set up a temporary mesh network in an area of the festival between Ossington and Dovercourt (see the map here).
In addition, we will be manning a stall/table in that same area where we will be hanging out, using the Wi-Fi, telling people about us, selling (I heart community wi-fi) t-shirts and buttons etc.
In order to make the event a success, we’re gonna need as much help as possible. We need YOU!
There are all kinds of ways you can be of help, from setting up and testing the network itself, helping people connect, telling people what we do to just hanging out and being a smiling face of our group of friendly volunteers.
We are going to have a brief meeting on Friday (19th) at The Centre for Social Innovation (215 Spadina, 4th Floor) at 6pm just to go over what the following day will entail.
I encourage you all to come along! I’m sure the more people we have involved the more awesome we can make the event.
May be able to help – how do I get more info?
Hi Brian.
Best way would be to come to our volunteer meeting this Friday 19th June at the Centre for Social Innovation at 215 Spadina (4th Floor). We will go over what we plan on doing on the following day.
If you can’t make that you’re still welcome to show up on the day. We should be meeting about 9am on the Sat (20th), but I can keep you posted on that one.
Alex
