Friday, March 23 - Sunday March 25

The ACC Toronto Section is once again proud to host the Banff Mountain Film Festival World Tour in Toronto. Join us at the newly renovated Bloor Hot Docs Cinema -- just minutes from the Bathurst subway station -- for three screenings of the best films from the most recent Banff Mountain Film Festival. (The Sunday screenings are an afternoon matinee.)

Ice climbing pre-season get together

ACC members receive a half price day pass on the last Wednesday of each month. (Valid only with proof of ACC membership).

Ture North has hundreds of different top-rope routes and bouldering problems, with the right level of difficulty for you whether you are a beginner or an experienced climber.

A chance for us to get together and discuss all things icy before the season starts. This would be a great opportunity for ice climbers new to the club to make some contacts and plan some future trips. Likewise, this is a great opportunity for novice ice climbers, or those rock climbers out there that are interested in taking the plunge to learn more about this exhilarating winter pastime (‘cmon, snowboarding is SO 1990’s!). Come out, enjoy some great food, a few beers and learn more about the wonderful sport of ice climbing.

This year's Annual General Meeting will feature our guest speaker, ice and mixed climber, Will Gadd. The show promises to be entertaining and filled with anecdotes about Will's climbing adventures around the world. Some attendees might remember Will's climbing adventures off the coast of Newfoundland, climbing icebergs!

Nobody ever died wishing they had spent more time behind a desk.

An award-winning writer (New York Times, Men's Journal, etc.) and film maker (first place at the Banff Film Festival for Musashi), Will recently hosted a prime-time series for Discovery, "Fearless Planet." His book on ice climbing is the top publication in its field and has been translated into four languages. His presentations on "Risk and Reward" and related topics take him all over the world to speak to audiences ranging from at-risk youth to large businesses.

Our AGM will feature a new play about Conrad Kain, one of Canada's most famous alpinists. Kain's significant first ascents in the Canadian Rockies include Bugaboo Spire, Mount Louis and Mount Robson. We are fortunate to have a new play about his life at our AGM.

Cash bar at 6 PM, a short meeting starting at 7 PM, and then the show starts immediately afterwards. Join us for the meeting and the show.
