Garbage Yard: Early Closure Today

The garbage yard will be closing today at 10:30

Remembrance Day

Wednesday, November 11th, we honour and remember with respect all those who lived through or perished in the wars and peacekeeping missions that have shaped our country’s history and our family histories.

Gather at the Forbes Hall flagpole Wednesday morning before the 11 am ceremony. Be prepared for rain. We will set up a canopy in front of the hall as well.

Following two-minutes of silence and the laying of flowers in memoriam, we will go indoors for the reading of In Flanders’ Fields and brief comments. We encourage you to stay for Soup’s On and enjoy the company of your friends and neighbours and share a simple meal.

Soup’s On: Wednesday, November 11th - Following the Remembrance Day Ceremony

11:30 am until 1:00 pm

Gather at Forbes Hall for a very Thetis Island lunch!

   Buttermilk Cornbread with butter and honey
   Cookies and Treats
   Teas and Coffee

Suggested donation of $7 for soup, bread, treats and teas & coffee.

Soup’s On is entirely carried out by volunteers and, as one of the tasks is the program’s accounting, please do not pay with coins smaller than Loonies and Toonies, as all change must be counted and rolled.

Everyone is welcome to join us, seniors, seniors who don’t think they’re seniors, workers, families, and everyone who just wants a mid-day meal!

Dangerous Goods Thursday

There will be Dangerous Goods to Penelakut this Thursday.
That means nothing from Chemainus to Thetis at 0825 or 1230.

It also means that no one can leave Thetis at 0900 as DG will be on board for Penelakut.
As usual, no one will be able to leave Thetis at 1325 as DG will be on board from Penelakut.

Thanks,
Sharon
