+More to be confirmed!!!
Visuals by VJ Scott Guy
In an attempt to pick a location which is interesting, unique and at the same time accessible, we have encountered a park situated right in the heart of Toronto. Tommy Thompson Park (aka Leslie St. Spit) is Toronto's best kept secret. Being a bird sanctuary peninsula in the midst of Lake Ontario, the park provides a beautiful view on the city and at the same time adds a rural feeling. Car driving in the sanctuary is very limited, since the main gate is locked most of the time. Hence it is encouraged to bring bikes, rollerblades, or even have a walk.
DIRECTIONS:
* Take the Queen Streetcar east to Leslie St.
* Get off at Leslie and walk south past Lakeshore Ave. E.
* Walk further south until the main gate (for those driving, can park besides the front gate)
* Bypass the gate and walk further south (until you get to the route split at the laguna-type terrain)
* Take the left route straight south
* Follow the route as it turns west until you reach an intersection of routes
* Turn right and walk north (until you reach a small path to the left)
* Take the path which will lead you to the party site.
For your convenience, here are maps:
http://public.fotki.com/DJShankar/shakti_maps/mapspit2.html
http://public.fotki.com/DJShankar/shakti_maps/mapspit3.html
Red lines are the routes that should be taken
Green dashes are an additional way to get to the left route (in case the turn was missed)
Green field indicates the site of the event
Overall walking time to the site should take around 40 minutes. Keep in mind that all the routes are paved (which adds to walking or biking convenience).
More info will be added closer to the event
BOOM!

After alot of consideration and research we have decided to relocate the party to Cherry Beach . I know this is not the best of the best places in the city, however it is easier to access and will be safer. The former location is a bird sanctuary, and if anyone complains about the noise we'll be penalised harshly. In addition, the noise will scare these rare birds away from their natural habitat. We don't want to do that. Still, we can make this party work! We'll have plenty of deco, amazing soundsystem, a chill stage and great crowd. This would be the party to remember!! |

Hey friends!
I'll be putting up a sign (notice) on the Leslie Spit gate in case anyone doesn't know about the relocation spot.
Thanks Boris for the fast "update" posting!
Big day for us tomorrow... and I can't wait!! Seems my leg is healing at an amazing rate, and I'll be as good as new soon.
It won't stop me from dancing though LOL!
Once again, as Shankar posted :
*Take Lakeshore Blvd. East to Cherry St.
*Take Cherry St. to the very end south (until the lake)
* Park your car and walk for 5 mins towards the sound.
Here's the new updated map:

This will be awesome! Hope to see all you Psy freaks at the beach.
