MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS NEWS

Volunteers needed: We need you! If you have social media skills, knowledge about digital marketing, sponsorships, public relations, communications or marketing skills that you'd like to share, and have a little extra time, please email publicity@tbn.ca.

Membership survey time: The TBN board needs to know what members want. In order to do that we need that dreaded S word...a membership survey. Before you run for the hills, know that any personal information you provide is only going to be used to better serve YOU, and will not be shared outside the board. If we do a chunky survey now, we are less likely to have to bother you with more later in 2026. All who complete the survey will be entered in a draw for a chance to win a prize. Please complete our TBN 2026 Membership Survey here.

TBN SOCIAL/EDUCATION EVENTS

Please remember that very popular events fill up and may have waiting lists. If you register for one of these events, and you do not cancel if you can’t attend, you are denying someone on the waiting list the opportunity to attend.

Monthly Dining Out, Dec. 18. This month’s dinner is at an east-end French restaurant. Information about the event, the restaurants and registration are available here. Note that, from now on, the restaurant will be announced on the Monthly Dining Out home page (link is above) on the first of the month and registration will open at that time.

TBN Pub Quiz, Dec. 23. The quiz is at the Prenup Pub. Registration for the December quiz is now open via the calendar. More details about the new participant-centred quiz format and about the Prenup Pub are available here.

Dinner and Dancing on the Danforth, Jan. 16. We decided to enhance this event by making a whole evening of it. First, we will have dinner at a great restaurant near Broadview and Danforth, and then, for those who wish to, we will walk over to Noonan’s Irish Pub. There is NO COVER at Noonan’s. More information, music videos and registration can be found here.

Fall and winter hiking is back

TBN’s schedule of fall hikes has ended, with the last fall hike on Dec. 14. At this time we are not sure whether winter hikes will be scheduled in the New Year, as interest dropped off for those in 2025. Watch the Calendar for dates, which will be posted as details are confirmed. For details on the program, see the Fall/Winter Hiking program page.

ZWIFT YOUR WAY TO WINTER FITNESS

TBN is back for a fourth year of its winter program of virtual rides, using the Zwift computer platform to provide an almost limitless number of indoor rides as the weather turns cold, wet or snowy. We are running morning rides on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Rides will be posted approximately one month in advance. Check the TBN Calendar for scheduled rides.  For more information about the meetups and how to get started, see the Zwift Meetups page.

We need your photos

We’d love to see all the amazing moments you’ve captured during our club rides and events. If you have any photos or videos from recent outings, please upload them to our shared Google album. It’s a great way to relive the memories, showcase our adventures, and help keep our club page lively and engaging. Whether it’s action shots, group selfies or scenic views, every photo counts. But pease be selective and upload only the photos you feel are your best. Let’s build a collection we can all enjoy and be proud of. Thanks for sharing your experiences—your contributions help tell the story of our awesome club!

New: TBN fees may now be paid via e-transfer 

Invoices for membership applications and renewals are now payable in two different ways. If you select "Pay Online" you will pay via PayPal. If you select "Invoice Me" you must pay via an e-transfer to treasurer@tbn.ca. Be sure to include the invoice number within the comment field of your e-transfer. Note that online payments are registered immediately, but e-transfer payments require a manual processing step to update our payments database. Please allow 48 hours for processing. 

Reminder to update your TBN profile

Please ensure to periodically update your TBN club profile. Perhaps upload a photo of yourself (so other members know who you are), confirm that your email address listed is correct (as this is the primary way for us to contact you), confirm your phone and emergency contacts are still valid, and update your current (or former) occupation and let us know if and how you would like to volunteer with TBN. We are always looking for helping hands, especially those with needed skills. How to do this: Login to the website, click on your name, then click Edit Profile. When you are done, press Save to commit your changes.
