===<font color="#990000">Meetings</font>===
There is a regular CS meeting, once a month:<br />
It is scheduled '''every first Tuesday''' in a bar.
The first edition was the 2nd Sept 2008, was held in the Ty Anna bar.<br /><br />
Different events (bars, restaurants, billiard, BBQ, kayak, concerts,...) are also organized on an approximately monthly basis.<br />
Have a look on the [http://www.couchsurfing.com/group.html?gid=8158 Rennes CS group] for the latest news and don't hesitate to propose if you're planning to come around !<br />
<!-- If there are regular meetings, mention this. If there aren't regular meetings, but ''you'' want to help organizing meetings, add a link to your profile here -->

===<font color="#990000">Mailing List</font>===
Suscribe to the [http://www.couchsurfing.com/group.html?gid=8158 Rennes CS group] to have the latest news on Rennes CS activities.
<!-- Some cities, like Berlin, have very active mailing lists. This is more of a Hospitality Club thing, as CS has "Groups" for countries and cities, but it may be worth mentioning if there is a mailing list around and how to sign up to it. -->

===<font color="#990000">Tips</font>===
<!-- Specific CouchSurfing tips. I.e. could it be a good idea to ask people in suburbs instead (because the city is very popular). 

Other useful things:
* free food (is there a Food not Bombs?)
* free wifi internet spots?
-->

'''Free wifi internet hotspots:''' 
* Every Mcdonald's™ fast food restaurant offer a free wifi hotspot. 
* In the center, there is a free wifi hotspot at the SubWay™ fast food restaurant (1 place sainte Anne) and at the Brioche Dorée (in the Le Bastard street, you even don't need to buy food).
* some of the ISP also provide community networks for its clients. All you need is a login and a password to connect to one of these (FreeWifi, Neuf Wifi, SFR Wifi Public). Don't hesitate to send a mail to the Rennes CS Group to ask for some login/pass, it will be effective in the whole France ! These community access point are almost everywhere, here is a map for the downtown area : http://www.click2map.com/v2/Artesi/RESEAUX_COMMUNAUTAIRES/


If you are looking for a place more quiet, you can go to the cultural centre called [http://www.leschampslibres.fr/ Les Champs Libres] (close to the station Charles de Gaulle), and sit in the library to enjoy the wifi hotspot, or, if you don't have any laptop, computers are available on free access (15mn) or on reservation (but for that you need a member card).
Near to Les champs libres is the 4bis where you can have a free daily wifi access or a 30mn free access on a computer, by asking for a login in the "Espace services".
Here is also a list of bars that offer a wifi access :

- [http://leroyal.canalblog.com/ Le Royal], 3 place du Calvaire

- Le St Melaine, 33 rue St Melaine

- Le Funky Munky, 37 rue St Melaine

- Le St Georges, 37 rue St Georges (10 first minutes free... then you have to pay !)
