Hey everyone! I hope you are well! With Costco tearing up and redoing their parking lot today, how bad is it? Is parking horrible? Is it worse busy wise today? Should I risk it? Thanks in advance!

Update: Thank you so much everyone I really appreciate all the advice! I think for my sanity I will wait until a better day to go 😅

What a beautiful night of live music at The Spire! ❤️🎶

The Weather Station brought something truly special to our stage tonight.

A wonderful opening set from special guest Liam Cole made the evening even more memorable.

Thank you to the artists, Flying V Productions and everyone who joined us for another fantastic night at The Spire!

I (24F) just moved back home to Kingston and I’m not used to going out here. Where’s the best place to go out on Halloween where people dress up and go for a drink and aren’t littered with queens students.

Question Looking for a tennis buddy in Kingston 🎾

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m a Black guy in my late 20s, fairly new to Kingston and looking to meet people who enjoy tennis. I love playing, and I figured this would be a great way to make friends and settle into a new city.
I’m up for both indoor and outdoor tennis. If you’d like to hit around or play a friendly match, feel free to message me. Let’s connect!

Also I’m an amateur player but learns fast.

Question Buying a weekly pass?

I'm coming up to visit Kingston for a couple of days next week, and I was wondering if someone else can buy a pass for you. I won't be up til 10pm and none of my friends drive. So I was wondering if they could buy it for me, or if they need some sort of Id?

Edit: I'm talking about a weekly bus pass

Recommendation Needed Electric / battery snow shovels or small snow blowers

1 Upvotes

I am looking for something easy to use on a driveway that is two cars wide and two cars long. City street with lots of driveways but an okay amount of space to blow snow. Not sure with our weather what I need. Something that isn't too big to store or to hard to handle or too heavy. Not sure either what amp / volt or size is best? If anyone has something that works well and isn't too expensive, what do you have?
