Off the 'Cuff

In the past year, we’ve been experimenting with different forms of social media, seeing which of the many tools available best suit our needs. No matter which platform we’ve engaged with you all on (Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, or this blog) we’ve found a welcoming group of enthusiastic supporters willing to help us learn the ropes and spread the word about what we’re up to. Thank you so much for the advice, the support, the introductions and the friendliness you’ve shown us since we started this experiment.We can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next.

We’re really like to pay you all back for your kindness, but as non-profit organization and registered charity, we really can’t afford give you the fancy and expensive gifts you deserve. That said, there are a few things we can do for you:

1) Sins of the City Tour – Heard about it earlier in the summer and meant to check it out? For the last four tours of the season (Sept 23, 25, 26, and 30) we’ll give you and a friend a spot on the tour for just $5 each (regular price is $15!). Just be sure  mention that you read our blog when you book your spot. (Or follow our tweets, or are a fan of us on Facebook). Tour details are here.

2) Event Hosting – Looking for an unconventional venue for an event? How about the city’s former morgue and coroner’s offices? We can’t offer the space up for free (for most events), but it doesn’t hurt to get in touch and ask. At minimum, you can be sure that if you’ve supported us, we’ll support you in return…

3) Gift Shop – 10% off everything in our gift shop for our Twitter followers, Facebook fans and blog readers until October 15th.

In the next few months, we’ve got some cool new things planned with FourSquare, podcasting and geocaching. Since you follow us here, you’ll be the first to know.

Thanks again for your assistance and we hope we can return the favour in our own small way. You guys are awesome, keep it up!
