Please RSVP in this thread so I know how many people to expect.

Location

Williams Coffee Pub, in Cambridge (620 Hespeler Road)
map

Transportation

Parking: trafuse says: "The Hespeler Williams has a parking lot attached. You can totally park there. If that is full, there is a strip mall behind it, and lots of parking there."
Bus Routes: It would appear that the 67, the 51 and the IXpress all stop near the Williams, but again, I don't know the area at all, so anyone with extra information about buses in Cambridge, please share!

As with all our events, please buy at least a drink so you're not loitering.

I'll be there. I can also offer to ferry up to 3 people from the Kitchener area with me, if needed. Let me know if you need/want a ride.

Hoping to be there. I might actually be a bit early because I work in Guelph until 5, so instead of going home first then out again I will likely just head right there. So, likely there around 5:30 if anyone else is thinking of going earlier.

Is there anyone in Waterloo willing to carpool, slash take a bus adventure with me? I've never been to Cambridge, so I'm a bit skeptical about me getting there without getting lost!

Jessica if you need a ride you can go adventure traveling with me and my gps...although I have still gotten lost with my GPS so it really can be adventure travel.

I will be there assuming i dont get lost

It's really easy to get to. You hop on the 401 and before you know it you're getting off on Hespeler and then Bam - it's there.

:)

The Hespeler Williams has a parking lot attached. You can totally park there. If that is full, there is a strip mall behind it, and lots of parking there.

Hespeler is a major street, so the busses go by pretty often. I don't take the busses much, so I don't know which busses stop. I believe there is a stop either directly in front of the Williams, or at least very close by.

There is a good chance that I will be able to make it to at least part of this one.

The only potential issue with the Williams is the occasionally limited power supply, and the occasional trouble with internet access. Generally they're both pretty good.

I'm going to try to come out from Guelph for this. I will likely be late, since I'm working Thursday night, but at least at the moment I'm expecting to be able to be there no later than about 8:30.

The 51 connects with 3 iXpress stops (granted all in Cambridge) and it does indeed stop very close to the Williams.

I will be there probably around 6, but I'll also likely be there between 1 and 5 Today (Monday) Tuesday, Wednesday and probably Friday. I did mention at one point that this is my second...er....first home. : )

So, yes, I and likely trafuse will be there.

I can probably make it, I still have to arrange a ride, but if it's in Cambridge it should be a lot easier.

It sounds like i'll for sure be coming now. We can offer a ride since it's a pain to take the bus from kitchener to cambridge.

Thanks for the write-in here from Guelph. Hopefully I'll be able to get out to some more events before the end of the month.

And, just in case anyone was interested since I had no clue what my word count was since I was hand writing, now that I've got it all typed in I can tell you that I managed just slightly under 1600 words at the write-in tonight.
