Stewarding Our Shores

Please join us for:

"Stewarding Our Shores" a Special peakers Evening 

Thursday, Aug. 8, at Overbury Resort's Pavilion, 288 Forbes Road, 6:30-8:30 PM.

Hosted by your Thetis Island Local Trust Committee.

Our distinguished speakers are:

John Readshaw, P. Eng: "A Coastal Engineer's Look at Expected Sea Level Rise"

Ramona de Graaf, MSc.: "Not Just Another Pretty Beach: Marine Shorelines as Critical Fish Habitats"

Thetis Island Nature Conservancy: "Stewardship of Thetis' Natural Ecosystems"

 We have planned time for Q and A along with general discussion and look forward to hearing from our community. We hope to engage our "summer neighbours" as well as our year-round neighbours - especially those who own waterfront properties. We can better steward our island when we understand the natural dynamics of the land and sea. To that end we present this third Shoreline Workshop. 

Since the Community Centre will be setting up for the wonderful Summer Soiree and Art Auction, Arlene and Norm Kasting graciously offered the use of their beautiful Overbury Resort Pavilion for our evening workshop. Parking will be on Forbes Road with a walk down the driveway and across the lawn to the pavilion - anyone with mobility issues will be able to park or be dropped at the bottom of the driveway. Refreshments will be served.

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday evening, Aug. 8th. 

Sincerely,

Trustees Ken, Peter, Sue, and Planner Aleksandra
