Directions to the GYTM Potluck Picnic


Every summer, Goodyear Toastmasters hosts a potluck picnic at the Etobicoke Yacht Club. Here is all of the information you need to get there, plus what you should bring.

On Humber Bay Park Road W, travel to the club situated near the end of the road. You will pass the Mimico Yacht club on your right. Don't go into this one. Continue on the road until you get to the main gates of the Etobicoke Yacht club. It will be on your right also.

If the gate is closed, buzz the attendant with the intercom. Indicate you are there for Dave Danbrook's party.

When you enter the gate, parking is on immediately on your left. The BBQ area is to the left of the club house building.

If the parking area is full, you can also park in the area in front of the main gate.

Note that the picnic will go as planned rain or shine. There is a large covered area in case it is raining.

Notes about the potluck:

a. Bring a sweater or a jacket for later in the evening as it sometimes gets chilly along the water.
b. Family, pets are more than welcome. There is a small play structure for kids at the picnic area
c. Wine/Beer is allowed.
d. Start time is 6:30. Please arrive early around 6:00 if you are bringing BBQ items.
e. Washrooms are located in the clubhouse near to the picnic area.
f. Picnic runs rain or shine.
g. If you bug Dave enough, he will show you his Boat.
h. Guests are welcome - please bring a potluck item as well.
