I've been attending events at the Kitchener Memorial Auditorium (The Aud) since my first year in…read moreuniversity way back when I was much younger and better at holding my liquor. Aside from the Kitchener Rangers games that I must note are a remarkable experience to attend - seriously OHL games are amazing (who needs the NHL anyway). The Aud is also a great spot for Concerts, Events and Variety acts. I had the great joy of seeing both Tim Allen and Russel Peters perform their comedy routines while I was attending Wlifrid Laurier University. The great thing about seeing variety acts at the Aud is that the smaller arena size means that there is seldom a bad seat in the house. You can have a great view pretty much anywhere and the seating is comfortable. Most recently - as in last night - I once again ventured back to the KW area to attend the University night of Oktoberfest. While this event isn't as traditional as other Oktoberfest events, you can still get a fresh hot Pretzel, Bratwurst, hats, lederhosen, drindle and of course Beer! The venue set up for this is great : long tables sit in traditional Oktoberfest style end to end, plenty of ingenius garbage can/table hybrids fill the space and to cap it all off the large stage at the front of the room is a great focal point where all can watch the band play traditional German folk songs and contemporary hits. Love the Aud, if you're in KW and there is something awesome going on here (or need to check out what awesomeness is going on there check the website), I recommend you try this place out! 13/30

I visited Dave Andreychuk Arena for game 3 of the Hamilton Bengals opening round playoff series…read moreagainst Owen Sound. As a box lacrosse arena, it gets the job done, but it would be nice if the rink had turf. Otherwise, it was a good venue, the sightlines were good and concessions were good as well with reasonable prices. Admission ($10) was a good price for an evening of entertainment, and it was an enjoyable way to spend the evening. I look forward to coming back for another game next season.

This is a really cute skate trail that's actually in the GTA! There are others in Muskoka and such,…read morebut those are such a trek. This one is also conveniently located by the Tom Graham Arena so there are facilities and parking nearby. They had an art show the day we were going so the lot was quite full on the side closest to he community center but there was still a lot of parking spots farther on. The skate trail actually has a little dedicated area for changing that's indoors or they have tables and benches outside (fingers might get cold!). It's a trail through some trees that kind of loops around so it's a lot more interesting than going around in circles. They play music as well to add to the liveliness.

Come in the mornings when there are less people. Many families come here with smaller children who are trying to learn too. There are no borders around the trail so be careful of skating off trail.

Steer clear if you want good customer service. The poor scheduling meant that we would have missed two sessions. I simply asked for one of the two sessions compensated as a result. The owner's "solution" was in his own words was to wait until the day of the course which he was sure would fill up. Essentially saying take my business elsewhere and the child miss two months of sessions due their scheduling. You were not even willing to do the smallest thing to help out and you were being so rude I realized the conversation was at an end. I understood they have policies in place but this was an unusual situation that the owner could have handled with diplomacy and tact. Instead they chose the low road and at the first sign of having a difficult situation told me to take my business elsewhere.
