4. CNE from Barrie
Original English title:Cne from barrie
Post summary:I'm thinking of taking my daughter to the CNE this year, and I'm considering whether to take the train down from Barrie. I've never taken the GO train before, so I'm a bit turned around trying to find any info on it. Is there a station within walking distance? Do I have to take it to Union and then transfer to another transit to get to the Exhibition grounds? If you've done this before, could you give me some guidance?

5. Where do adults make friends in Barrie?
Original English title:Where do adults make friends in Barrie?
Post summary:(27F) Here trying to find myself again! I'm fairly new to Barrie and a mom of 2 kids under 2.5. I love my kids to bits! But figuring out how to keep these little humans alive makes "me time" almost non-existent. So I really want to find some hobbies, classes, or groups around Barrie so I can get out of the house and try new things! While I'd love to meet other moms, I'm also looking for things that aren't necessarily centered on motherhood. I want to rediscover who I am.
