I'll be wearing white doc martens and carrying an "ACX" meetup sign. From the square we can decide where to have lunch :) Notes: If it's rainy, we'll meet under the covered entrance to the Starbucks at 95 King St S instead. Not inside - the shaded area where the outdoor tables are. Group info: I used to host regular SSC meetups but have since lost the energy needed to sustain that. However, I'd be interested in trying to restart with a co-host if anyone else is interested.
