The Thetis Island Phone Books are not free. They are a privately financed public service. Producing them takes months of work, considerable expense and real dedication. In recent years, this work has been headed and financed by Veronica Shelford.
Some phone books were recently accidentally distributed without charge. These books were not free--taken without payment, these books are an extra expense against the future production of phone books.
Unfortunately some mistakes do slip through and these are publicly corrected as soon as possible. Corrections are listed in the Thetis Island Quarterly which, unlike the privately produced phone books, is published by TICA as a fundraiser for Forbes Hall and all of our Community Centre.
