[fvc-wat-disc] Next crisis: "KW YMCA"

[pnijjar at utm.utoronto.ca]

So the ECHO (and maybe other media) have been advertising the public 
consultation tomorrow as happening at the "KW YMCA", with no address 
information. This is highly misleading, so I have been attempting to contact 
all the organizations I can find with YMCA in their names to warn them. 

I think many people might be confused and go to a YMCA gym. As far as I know 
there is one YMCA gym in Kitchener-Waterloo: 

  0. A R Kaufman Family YMCA, 333 Carwood Ave Kit, 519-743-8322

Are there any other YMCA gyms/recreation places people know of?


I tried phoning these folks to warn them, but I just got voice mail jail. 
I left a message but I am pretty sure nobody will listen to it. 

I have also contacted some child-care centres: 
   0. YMCA Child Care, 560 Pioneer Drive, Kitchener, 519-895-0060
   1. YMCA of Kitchener Waterloo, 64 University Ave W Waterloo, 519-747-0007
   2. YMCA Ontario Early Years, 719 Erbsville Road Waterloo, 519-885-0552
      (left message) 

There are a lot more that I have not touched -- just go to the online yellow 
pages and type in YMCA for Kitchener-Waterloo. 
   
Here is what I have been telling people: 
  - There is an event happening tomorrow at the YMCA Ontario Early Years Centre 
Training Room at Bridge and University. The event is the Ontario Citizens' 
Assembly public consultation., 
  - This event has been advertised as being held at the "KW YMCA" 
  - Could you please tell people that come in confused about the real location?
  - Could you please download and print a poster we made, and put it on your 
door? That way confused people will know the proper location. The poster is at 
  http://fairvotecanada.org/files/wat-ymca-oops.pdf 

Is anybody willing to spend some time tomorrow morning/afternoon to contact 
other YMCAs and let them know this information?
