- have you paid your 2012 membership fees? The TICA membership includes a subscription to the popular Quarterly Magazine--if you have not been receiving yours, this is most likely an alert indicating fees were not paid!
New to the Island? TIRRA and TICA are operated by Island volunteers----
TIRRA - Thetis Island Residents' and Ratepayers' Association dues cover administration costs for issues such as highways, ferries, community planning, operation of St. Margaret's Cemetery and, most important, the oversight of the solid waste system...our "Trash Depot & Free Store".
TICA - Thetis Island Community Association volunteers are responsible for administration and maintenance of Forbes Hall Community Centre, the tennis court, play area, community library, the road and grounds around the hall and now for the full funding for the Internet access.
Perhaps you can't remember if you paid or not? Check by emailing

Thursday, August 16, 2012 at 6:33PM The Bench Book and Binoculars (have been on the Bench for 8 summers!) were noticed missing early on the 14th August.
They have gone Walkabout in the past, but always returned, usually taken to one of the Marinas, as found property!!
Has anybody seen them??
Thank you,
Michael & Doreen Ferguson (on behalf of Mom & Dad)
Thursday, August 16, 2012 at 3:54PM Last Sunday the TIVFD responded to a medical call at the Sunday Market at Telegraph Harbour Marina. The Fire Lane behind the marina is clearly marked with NO PARKING - FIRE LANE signage. Many vehicle drivers ignored the signs and parked on the lane anyway. The TIVFD Rescue barely squeaked through... the FRs driving the Rescue said that there was less than an inch clearance on either side, and they had to drive at a crawl to get past the cars without damaging them or the Rescue. This added extra time to getting medical aid to the patient. Thank goodness it wasn't a cardiac arrest we were called to! And had it been a fire, there would have been no way to get the fire engine down that lane.
DO NOT PARK IN THE FIRE LANE BEHIND TELEGRAPH HARBOUR MARINA!
There is a very serious reason why it needs to be kept clear.... YOUR SAFETY AND HEALTH! Keep the Fire Lane clear at ALL times.

No matter which dates you refer to, the Roman dates or the Old Farmer’s Almanac, we are in them. Enjoy these quintessential gulf island summer days with dusty bare-feet and mouthfuls of sun-ripened tomatoes & blackberries as dragonflies lazily fly by.
