How did the FTN start? Over the years, many of the participants in the freelancing classes wanted
to keep in touch, and so the First Tuesday Networking sessions started about 1991.
We have gathered in many locations and have seen many people come and go. However a mainstay core has met continuously
for about twelve years. This "board of directors" as they have come to be known, welcome new people on
the first Tuesday of every month. Check this page for the location and time of each gathering. |
| Bumpers - Original FTN location, closes |
|
According to a recent Citizen story, Bumper's Roadhouse closed last week. It was located at 580 Bank Street,
just south of the Queensway.
The original FTN was an extension of my freelance writing class when a few class participants wanted to continue
meeting to keep up the interest and momentum. Ironically, the two guys who were so enthusiastic came to the first
session and never returned. Sun, 22 Feb 2004: Allan Levine writes: "Thanks for the heartfelt memories. I recall that the original Bumpers had a special quality, or aura, like the Prescott. But maybe aura is not a word to describe a grubby bar, ha ha." |
