You will discover:
- the birthplace of Canada’s first gay village with history stretching back to Alexander “Molly” Wood who owned the land from the 1790s.
- one of Toronto’s founding fathers who like to dip into colonial coffers
- the place where Oscar Wilde lectured in a Toronto garden
- the venue where Elvis, Winston Churchill, Muhammad Ali and ABBA all took the stage (sadly, not at the same time)
- locations from the television show Queer as Folk
- a Moonstruck pooch with a fountain of his own
- and most outrageous and unbelievable of all, the place where the Toronto Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup – 11 times.
On an Urban Capers Scavenger Hunt, you are collecting answers to tricky questions rather than physical objects. Teams of two to six people compete over the course of two hours. The questions take you all over the neighbourhood, so bring out your sequin running shoes.
Church Street Caper
Walk in the footsteps of scandalous public officials, pioneers of the 1790s and the 1970s, artists, dancers, gambling kingpins, hockey legends, and of course queens, fairies and riot grrls. Find hidden places, secret stories, and maybe even a ghost or two on this exciting scavenger hunt through old Molly Wood’s Bush.
