Summer’s at its peak right now, and no matter where you’re located in Toronto – there is a park near and dear to you. For yesterday’s sunny Sunday, we took our friend Lex Kilgour (actress at NYC’s Neighborhood Playhouse) and did some cartwheels and jumping jacks to get our blood pumping. Well, okay, we had a hefty glass of wine beforehand but it was lots of fun nonetheless! It got us thinking though, what are other fun things Torontonians can do in a park?
