What is the hook for your Jane’s Walk? A catchy title goes a long way to attract the attention of tour-takers.

Most walks are 60-90 minutes long and include 3-7 stops, but many walks are much longer or shorter. Make sure you build in enough time for discussion and pace it for slow walkers, crowded sidewalks, and big groups. It is better to overestimate the length of your walk than to underestimate it. Remember - Jane's Walk is rain or shine!

What's the walk about? What issues will you be exploring? What's the history of the area? Will anyone be joining to share their expertise (e.g. a historian, a community advocate, etc.)? What will attendees learn? Are there details or instructions for attendees to consider (e.g. wear comfortable shoes, bring a camera, etc.)? Be brief but descriptive: sell people on attending your walk with a nice preview! Jump-start the conversation by getting people thinking about how they'll contribute to your walking conversation.

Please use an address, if possible, so that we can accurately map your start location. If you are not using an address, be as specific as you can, making note of landmarks and coordinates, eg North East corner or main intersection. 

How will people find you / know you're the walk leader? (Will you wear a certain color or hat? Have a flag or sign? or standing next to a specific landmark) Be as specific about your meeting place as possible. 

Please use an address, if possible. It's fun to finish somewhere the conversation can continue over a snack, a drink, or an ice cream. :)

While the nature of some neighbourhood, routes, and the act of walking itself means that not every Jane's Walk will be fully accessible, we encourage you to be conscious of accessibility and thoughtful about your route. Everyone experiences space differently, so think broadly and empathetically about your route conditions.

We'll add this to the Facebook event. Please upload a .jpg or .png file that you have the rights to use. It'll work best at 1920 x 1080 pixels (16:9 aspect ratio). If you don't upload your own photo, we'll choose a photo from our archive to use.

This information won’t be made public, but if someone contacts us with questions about your walk,
we’ll put them in touch with you via email.

Sometimes organizers or volunteers might need to reach a walk leader. This will not be made public.
