Thetis Island History Display Update

There is a new must-see artifact in Thetis History Telephone Display at Forbes Hall, courtesy of Tim French. It is one of the first cell phones from 1984, nicknamed The Brick, weighing in at one and a half pounds! If you haven’t seen the display yet, be sure to check out it out before it is gone as it contains some fascinating early history of telephones on Thetis Island. We thank all the generous Islanders who have kindly shared their stories and artifacts with the community by loaning them for the display these past couple of months.

The next Thetis History theme will revolve around Thetis Island Cooks and Cookbooks. If you have old cookbooks, ideas, information or stories to share, or old fashioned cookware you would be willing to loan for display, please contact Nan Beals 4nanbeals@gmail.com or Carol Stoker carol.stoker@icloud.com of TICA Archives.

Also, if you would like to join our “Thetistorian” team doing research we would appreciate any help you could give.

Thank you!

High Hazard Activities Reinstated

We moved up to HIGH Fire Risk on Saturday due to the heat, low humidity, and drying winds. Factoring in the three-day grace period, High Hazard Activities must cease on TUESDAY June 16th at 1 p.m. and a two-hour fire watch posted. Be very careful of creating sparks.

Call all daytime columns of smoke in to 911.

Evening campfires are still allowed but be very vigilant with sparks and don’t light if it is windy.

Mystery Solved!

The old generator was picked up by CVRD Emergency Services.
Unfortunately, the TICA Board hadn’t been informed.

All's well that ends well.
