SIMON KING has been called "one of the greatest comedians of his generation" and it's easy to see why. With credits including HBO, Just For Laughs, CBC, CTV, Comedy Central, Comedy Network, Winnipeg Comedy Festival, Las Vegas Comedy Festival (To name just a few) this comedy veteran brings a unique, edgy, energetic, intelligent style to the stage that is unmatched anywhere in stand up comedy. After the release of his critical acclaimed special "As Good As Or Better Than" directed by Rory Scovel, Simon follows up with his darkest hour to date. Straddling the topics of suicide, homelessness, AI, vaccines, sex work , late stage capitalism, environmental collapse and most importantly the very reason dark comedy is the best. If you're not familiar with Simon it's best to look him up before you come but you can be assured this isn't some right wing "I'm dangerous becuase I say all the taboo words" temper tantrum. This is real, smart, hilariously dark comedy for people who appreciate laughing in the face of the hard things. "Wicked f**kin funny" - Doug Stanhope "Truly a gifted comedian." - Robin Williams "Simon deserves your attention." - Rory Scovel With very special guest: COLIN SHARP DOORS 7:30PM - SHOW 8PM 19+ ONLY **UNCENSORED SHOW, ADULT LANGUAGE AND DARK SUBJECT MATTER** Information Source: fundamental artists | eventbrite

Join CPAWS Manitoba for a morning group hike at the picturesque St Adolphe Friendship Trail. This guided hike starts at 11:00 am and offers a refreshing escape into nature, just a short drive from Winnipeg. The trail is 2.7km long and takes approximately 30 minutes to complete, featuring flat and easy terrain that is suitable for all skill levels. As you walk along the trail, you'll have the opportunity to explore a beautiful bird sanctuary, where you may spot various bird species during their fall migration. The St Adolphe Friendship Trail is the result of the hard work and dedication of Henriette and Richard Collette, a local couple who tirelessly cleaned up the area during the early years of the pandemic. Their efforts led to the creation of a small trail, which eventually gained community support and became the beloved St Adolphe Friendship Trail. Along the trail, you'll find rest spots and unique decor, such as bird feeders and windchimes, created by the Colettes and other community members. To reach the trailhead, simply type 'St Adolphe Friendship Trail' into a GPS or smartphone. Please note that the instructions may direct you to the north trailhead, while the group will meet at the south trailhead. Alternatively, you can follow these directions from Winnipeg: head south on Highway 75 to the junction of Provincial Road Hwy 210, then turn east on 210. Continue until you reach the junction of 75 and Main Street, turn south onto Main Street. Continue south until you reach the junction of Main Street and St Paul Street, turn west on St Paul Street. The trailhead is located at the end of the street. During the hike, it is recommended to bring at least two bottles of water, as well as snacks to keep your energy up. There are no outhouses at the trailhead, but the trail is located within the town of St Adolphe, where you can find a grocery store and gas station nearby. Join us for a morning full of outdoor fun and friendly conversations. CPAWS staff will guide you along the trail and share their love for nature. Please note that this is not an interpretive event, but our team will do their best to answer any questions you may have. If you have any specific inquiries or require accommodations, please email us at info@cpawsmb.org.

HOLY TOLEDO! LoST on the North Coast Inland Trail- a Smart-guided Cycle Tour in Northwest OhioGo long - go short - go in-between - or go HOLY TOLEDO! 4 options on this LoST cycling adventure on a historical northern Ohio rail-to-trail. The North Coast Inland Trail primarily follows a route built by the Toledo, Norwalk, and Cleveland Railroad (TN&C) from 1851-1853. The short (FREE), medium and long options of the LoST cover an 18-mile section of the NCIT (North Coast Inland Trail) through Lorain and Huron counties with a common tasty turnaround spot. These are mostly on paved-level rail-to-trails bikeways. The HOLY TOLEDO! option goes all the way to... Toledo... of course! This, too, has numerous miles of paved-level rails-to-trails bikeways except for segments of the NCIT that are not yet in place and western segments that are crushed stone/gravel. It has the same common tasty turnaround spot as the three above tours. But, it continues towards Toledo ...or as far as you can go before heading back to the starting spot. Maybe you are going all the way - HOLY TOLEDO! - that- is 210 total miles. Points of Interest: small townsfarmland and parksPoints of Interest only with HOLY TOLEDO!: ToledoLake ErieLevi SquarecampgroundsMaumee RiverPearson MetroparkGlass City MetroparkMaumee Bay State ParkTony Packo's RestaurantMad River & NKP Railroad MuseumNational Museum of the Great LakesBikeways: Black Trail*Glass City Riverwalk*Coontz Complex Path*North Coast Inland Trail (NCIT)Rails To Trails Next To Maumee River**only with HOLY TOLEDO! The North Coast Inland Trail (NCIT) was created in 1992 when seven park districts agreed to develop a system connecting trails in northwest Ohio. On August 15, 1998, the Lorain County Metro Parks opened a section of the trail measuring 148 acres. Most of the NCIT is a 12-foot-wide paved trail built over an abandoned Toledo, Norwalk, and Cleveland Railroad line. The NCIT runs for 65 miles from Lorain to Toledo with some sections still being built. The Lorain County Metro Parks’ portion runs from Lake Erie in Lorain to the county line in Wakeman. (Lorain County Metro Parks) Eventually, the NCIT is planned to cross northern Ohio making history by connecting bordering states Indiana and Pennsylvania. LoST is an acronym for Long or Short Tour - a CycleNuts Group Tour favorite. Because this tour originally had three lengths, it was called a Triple LoST. With the addition of Toledo, it was renamed to Holy Toledo! OH - a LoST Smart-guided North Coast Inland Trail Adventure. Go all the way or part of the way - rider's choice! 12 (FREE), 21, 37, 210 miles on this beautiful countryside rail-to-trail bikeway. 3 starting spots - 4 tour lengths - 1 common CycleNuts tested and approved pet-friendly tasty turnaround spot for all, except the HOLY TOLEDO tourists will continue towards Toledo. How this LoSt Tour works. Three lengths go to and from a CycleNuts-tested and approved tasty turnaround spot - the HOLY TOLEDO continues towards Toledo. You have options. You can ride solo at your leisure. You can invite your crew to join you, each choosing their comfortable length. Remember to adjust the starting times for each so that all can ride together to the tasty turnaround spot. The three shorter routes are 92% bikeway with few opportunities to use your bike's climbing gears. They are shaded about 50% of the way. The Holy Toledo! tour is 74% bikeway and about 50% sunny. More about the HOLY TOLEDO! OT (Overnight Tour) optionAt 105 miles each way it would make for a mild endurance event of 210 miles. With the logistics of a couple of nearby campgrounds, it could also serve as a multi-day bikepacking adventure. The several small towns it passes through, along with Toledo, have conventional hotels that could make this a more comfortable touring adventure. Warmshowers, hotels, and Airbnb overnight stays are other options for HOLY TOLEDO! trekkers. In Toledo, there are some notable points of interest to check out. First off, pinpointing the root of the phrase, 'Holy Toledo', is a real thing for Toledoans. A brief online search will only tease the imagination and lead to numerous rabbit holes and a wild goose chase, or two, to investigate. You see where this is leading. Toledo is home to Jamie Farr - one of the stars of MASH, that long-running sitcom. Tony Packo's restaurant is included in the tour route -notable as a hangout of the star Farr, and the birthplace of the Hungarian hot dog. If you are ever in Toledo, Ohio, on the Hungarian side of town, Tony Packo’s got the greatest Hungarian hot dogs.” (~ Klinger, MASH) Home of the Hungarian hot dog, and the collection of hot dog buns signed by Burt Reynolds and numerous other celebrities over the decades. It's on the tour route if you are interested. Toledo - the Glass City - is famously known as a glass manufacturing city. It is the first city in America to have an all-glass exterior building, built in the early 20th century. Remnants and memorabilia are abundant throughout the city.
