Yonge Street Pub Crawl (YSPC)
The 7th edition of the Yong Street Pub Crawl (YSPC) was held on Saturday August 20th, 2011 in Toronto. An intrepid group of crawlers managed to raise $225.00 while raising a glass at some of the bars on the world's longest street.

Each year the YSPC starts in Yonge-Dundas Square near the South-East corner of Yonge & Dundas Streets. In 2011 there were eight scheduled stops:
- The Three Brewers, 275 Yonge Street (south of Y-D Sq)
- Elephant & Castle, 378 Yonge Street @ Gerrard
- Hoops Sports Bar & Grill, 458 Yonge Street @ College

- The Rebel House, 1068 Yonge Street (north of Rosedale Stn)
- The Monk's Table, 1276 Yonge Street (north of Summerhill Stn)
The Cause
Participants are asked to make a suggested donation of $10.00 either online or in-person. Donations of $20.00+ are eligible for tax receipts.
(Please note: Tax receipts for in-person donations require valid email address to be provided and will be emailed to the donor within a week after the event.)
All proceeds will go to Right To Play, an international humanitarian organization that uses sport and play programs to improve health, develop life skills, and foster peace for children and communities in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the world.

YSPC History
The YSPC was started in 2005 by a group of friends who wanted to see just how many bars there were on 'the longest street in the world' and how many could they have a drink at in one day.Seven years later the YSPC is an annual fundraising event that takes place on the 3rd Saturday in August and has raised over $1,200.00 for charity.Not bad for a group of people looking for an excuse to drink all day.
