I wanted to write this review for future employee workers. Today was my last day, and I wanted to…read moreexpress the humiliating treatment that happens at Tinkertown. There is no place to start but just to mention all the horrible things us workers deal with. This is my second year working for Tinkertown, and having a bit of experience, I can say that the person named Kyle does not know how to manage his employees. There is no communication whatsoever, and he is harsh on certain people. For example, if I speak to a colleague for one minute, he starts yelling at us. On the other hand, some people hold conversations in front of him, laugh, and do no work whatsoever, and he ignores them. Another point is that during my final exam week, when time was valuable for me to study, Kyle would let me off for one or two hours unpaid, and I had to wait for other people to finish their shifts so they could pick me up. Kyle knew about it, and he still made me wait two hours until they were done. The same goes for these people. Even if you don't ask to leave early, he will give you a 30-minute unpaid break and even let you off two hours early so the place looks full of employees and not empty. What a waste of everyone's time. Another thing I wanted to mention is that last year I was asked to work a month straight without a single day off because so many employees kept quitting due to the treatment at Tinkertown. I agreed to help because they were short-staffed, but having to work an entire month without one day of rest was unreasonable. Since this is my second year working at this place, I requested an extra shirt because mine had shrunk to my waist. He didn't care whatsoever and even questioned me about why I came to work once without my shirt. That just shows how stingy Kyle can be. Last year, Kyle even forgot to buckle the seatbelts on three little kids when he covered my bathroom break and started the ride with the kids on it. They were not buckled whatsoever, 50 feet in the air on Gunslinger, the big swings. Also, on the Pirate Ship, he got a kid's finger stuck in the lap bar while closing it down. No safety whatsoever. I left a two-week notice as a courtesy, but I honestly regret doing such a thing. I think the best option for my dignity would have been to do a no-call, no-show. There are so many things I would like to say, but I think what I have said is enough to echo what us employees get to experience and how we are treated by Kyle.

My friend and her kids were in from Alberta so we figured a day at Tinkertown would be fun for them…read morethat are aged 5 and 7. Both kids had a blast!! My friend bought a wristband for herself and for the kids and they rode every ride they wanted to. The lady at the restaurant counter (August 13, 2019 @ 1:30pm) was fantastic! She chatted a bit with my friends daughter and really made her smile. The food was what you'd expect, not spectacular but the price was very reasonable. I am really glad that I didn't have to buy a wristband to get into the park (not a huge fan of rides, makes my stomach flip to much), watching my friends kids on the rides was great, they had close to 5 hours of fun. I even bought a ticket so I could ride the train, it was very cute and they smiled the whole time!!

Came there as a beginner.They refused(!) to measure my draw-length when I asked for it and just handed me a bow to draw. They sold me a bow with too short of a draw-length and told me two weeks later that swapping the cams to a longer draw length would be expensive. They mounted my sight the wrong way! Found out after hours of research on the internet. Scratched up my bow while being unable to mount the bow stand due to unfamiliarity with the item. They sold me a used release but didn't tell me it was a second hand item. Found out when I found the smoke-smelly package amongst the other packages back at home. The custom fletched arrows I got are super inconsistent: Runny super glue between the vanes, the nocks are put in the wrong way in 4 out 12 cases, and those tips must be the cheapest china-ware I've seen.

A decent zoo with a great variety of animals and well-designed exhibits. The Journey to Churchill…read moresection, featuring polar bears and other Arctic wildlife, is definitely the highlight -- beautifully done and unique to this zoo. Unfortunately, the polar bears weren't out when I came here, but that's OK. The overall experience of being at this zoo was still great. The grounds are clean, spacious, and easy to navigate, and there's plenty for both kids and adults to enjoy. Staff are friendly, and the overall experience feels well-organized and educational. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is that some areas could use a bit more shade and seating during warmer months, but overall it's an attraction worth checking out when in Winnipeg.

The only reason that I'm giving the zoo a 4 star instead of a 5 is the price and not all animals…read morewere out to see, not many bathroom locations. First, I love the zoo especially my special needs sibling loves it even more and had been waiting months to go, but because it is literally so expensive we had to save up as we're both low income and can't afford that. Now that brings me to another point and question, why is it that low income and people with disabilities have to pay for their ticket but their support get into the zoo free? that doesn't make any sense, why isn't it the other way around? you would think that the support person should have to pay and the person with the disability should get in for free. Now onto the zoo second, this trip was fun we actually went on a perfect day where it wasn't super hot just right and just missed the rain when we left. Felt bad for the people just getting there as it started raining. There's so many amazing animals but I felt so bad for those ones who were all alone: the red panda, birds, tiger, etc. They need companions, the red panda just looked so sad and it made me so sad. I like that the Loo was there just as you walk out of the doors when just getting to the zoo, but I wish there were more bathroom locations. Especially for kids or special needs people who can't hold it, like my sibling. There was one other location we found. The restaurant; the big one by the polar bears was nice, like the restaurant itself. I didn't buy anything from it, maybe next time but one of the people i was with did. I did try some chips and they were good. This one group of people who came to sit near us literally pushed their bloody chair against our chairs to try and get us to move: it worked. They were so bloody rude that made the dining experience a bit of a disaster. We moved tables because clearly they really wanted ours and instead of going to sit at the already huge table they took 2 small tables and put them together? where's the logic or common decency? They were also letting their children jump and climb on tables, oh it was a big mess. Those people need to learn manners and teach their kids not to climb on tables and chairs at restaurants: it's not your property or playground. The gift shop was nice but expensive so I wouldn't actually purchase anything from it just because it isn't in our budget but if it were there were some nice things I'd maybe consider. For transportation I like that the 18 goes right to the Zoo on the weekends, not during the week though that is unfortunate. But other busses go there that make it easy to get to and from the zoo, there is a bus stop right across the street from the zoo that has a few bus options from what i remember. There's also the option of walking from the zoo to the park if you're feeling adventurous. If you drive there's parking available from what I saw there's a decent sized parking lot. The Zoo is for sure an all day experience, I'd recommend to start in the morning, bring water pack a lunch or bring food with you to eat there.

I used to belong to this gym, only stopped as we weren't using it enough, which speaks to my own…read morelaziness and not any fault of the gym whatsoever. The facilities are amazing, very top of the line and spotlessly clean. There are options for privacy in the changeroom and in the showers, which I appreciated (shower stalls are used and not a communal space). There is even a machine to wring out your bathing suit after a trip to the pool. The JCC is filled with little niceties like this. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The pool is a saltwater pool with a very cool children's area, and the temperature of the pool is perfect. I really like Schmoozer's Deli that is on the campus and right on your way to the gym (perhaps too convenient, it's very hard to resist their delicious carrot cake!). The Deli is a Dairy restaurant, which means they do not carry meat. They are Kosher, and no outside food can be eaten on campus. The quesadillas are especially yummy, but everything there is good in my experience. Even the coffee is decent, which is usually rare for a smaller restaurant that doesn't specialize in coffee. They have a ton of programs avail from cultural to learning to athletic for all ages. The Berney Theatre is located there, Gray Academy (Jewish private school for K-12), Aleph Bet Daycare, and a library. There is also a Holocaust Memorial and Jewish Child and Family Services are located there, too, the total area being called the Asper Community Campus that contains the JCC. There is ample free parking, and you can get a parking pass for parking closer to the JCC with your membership. My only critique is that their inclusion services are not the greatest. My daughter has a disability, and we found the inclusion programs offered were for much older individuals. We attempted swimming lessons for her and it was a disaster, the staff didn't seem to be equipped to deal with a non-neurotypical child. There are private lessons, but we found these to be too expensive.
