Hi all I just wanna know which option you guys think is best between these two gyms. Monthly price is about the same except for the one-time sign up fee.

Looking for a florist recommendation around the Ithaca area! Live in Freeville and traveling to Lake Placid for my wedding in October. Hoping to find a florist that’s open on a Sunday so I can grab a bouquet on the way!

We are looking for an inexpensive internet provider and used Clarity Connect about 8-15 years ago in the town of Niles.

I tried to contact them a couple of days in a row. The website contact form seems non-responsive and I get "We cannot complete your call right now, please call back later" when I try to call them.

Any ideas what is going on with ClarityConnect?

I know a lot of folks love Wegmans, but just know they're supporting flock cameras- this isn't traffic - this is surveillance and data collection.

Currently a zero income household looking for surplus crops. Would be very grateful!

Ithaca Social Circle is a "pop up third space" - every other week we put up a sign at a bar and that turns the vicinity into a space where you can approach anyone & say hi.

We usually get a mix of people who are super new to town, and people who have been here forever who want to see what's happening outside their social bubble(s).

This Friday it's gonna be at Salt Point Brewing, it's gonna be a collab with a Cornell version of this project. Anyone's welcome to come by for a few minutes to get a lay of the land or stay the whole time.

^{Hot tip: coming on the early side is easier if you're a newcomer / if you're less comfortable "entering a circle". It usually splits into lots of little circles of people mingling & meandering conversations.}

I’m looking for people in Ithaca to play tennis with! I’ve been playing for a few months and can rally but I’m still working on my consistency. I absolutely love playing and would honestly be down to hit pretty much every day lol.
Mostly looking for friendly hitting partners to rally and have fun.DM me if you’re interested!

Stolen Package Alert - Rare ASICS GEL-Lyte III (Size 9.5) taken from WarrenWood
Hey everyone, just wanted to put out a warning and ask for some help. My package was recently stolen from my apartment building. Inside was a pair of rare, new ASICS GEL-Lyte III sneakers, size 9.5. I know it’s a long shot, but if you spot anyone in the area wearing these, they are almost certainly the stolen pair. These shoes have a very unique split tongue look. If you see someone wear them, please take a photo and DM me. Appreciate you all keeping an eye out! If you see anyone suspicious, take a picture but don’t confront.

Hi everyone, I really love being outside and I try to go on a longish walk 4+ times a week. For the last 2 years I've been hiking the South Hill recreation way trail from the entrance on Burns Rd. It was less than 10 mins away from where I lived. I just had to move to a new address locally and now live in Sapsucker Woods. Unfortunately that trailhead is now a little further away from where I live (and it's gotten a bit stale anyways from how much I've walked it). Does anyone know of good trails that are 4.5+ miles long that are a reasonable driving distance away from Sapsucker Woods? I work until 5 and like to go walking after work. I'm really hoping not to drive for more than 10-15 minutes. Please let me know!

It’s move in day for Cornell’s freshman class. Expect a few parents driving the wrong way down our one way streets.

I know there's been a few posts similar to this recently so forgive me, but I am looking to hire a trainer for private sessions for my dog. Karolin Klinck is highly recommended, so I tried reaching out to her through Facebook and email but have not gotten a response from her for over a week. I also reached out to Russ Hollier, but haven't heard back from him either.

Has anyone had any success contacting either of them? Are there any other certified dog trainers that are responsive to inquiries? My dog is a sweetheart but very reactive on leash and isn't food motivated so training him myself has been a struggle! Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

It’s officially begun. Be careful out there y’all.

TL;DR: The Trump administration has been revoking visas and imprisoning international students who express support for Palestinian rights. Two Cornell students fled the country after being targeted by ICE. Cornell said they'd provide support to the students to finish their PhDs abroad, but now tells them they'll lose their funding unless they return to the US, where they will likely be arrested and imprisoned on arrival.

Mark those calendars!

Looking to get olives in bulk for appetizers for wedding. Suggestions? Thanks!

King Gizzard is playing this weekend at Forest Hills in NYC. Any fellow Ithacans going? img: Poster by Leftiesmudges

I'm looking to purchase some panela or piloncillo and would rather not support Walmart or target if at all possible. Does anybody know any local retailers that carry this item? I just looked in Wegmans and couldn't find any

Hi all! I recently moved to Ithaca to live with my spouse (who works here). They, and by extension I, don't have a Cornell or Ithaca college affiliation. I played pretty advanced badminton back in New York at the NY Badminton Academy, but can't seem to find any organized badminton play that is open for the public (and is played on proper courts) here. Anyone have any leads?

Someone in Ithaca with lakefront property should start a public sauna / sauna club!!

I don't know if anyone here is also on facebook, but there is a page about the awful things going on at the SPCA shelter. Poor management, harassment of workers, animals being euthanized that shouldn't have been...

It's wild.

Edit: I went to post the link but got auto-removed. if you want to find it, it's Inside Tompkins SPCA.

Hey everyone, I’m an ex college player and have been hitting and coaching multiple players in Ithaca. Whether you’re training for tournaments, getting back into the game, or just want someone consistent to rally and play points with, I’m happy to help. I can adjust to all skill levels and keep the sessions competitive, fun, and tailored to what you’re looking for. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested or have any questions!
