75 Days Until…
Thursday, June 18, 2026 at 7:54AM Hello Community,
Here is your second early warning to plan for your entry into the THETIS ISLAND COMMUNITY PARADE on August 29th. We may not be big, but we can definitely be flashy. (All bicycle and motorized scooter entries must wear a helmet.)
The Fire Department will be holding a draw of artwork in early August for a Chief for a Day child to ride at the front of the parade in the brand new Engine1.
It’s the usual (short) parade route from Mission Road, down the big hill, around Marina Drive, back up the big hill and back to Mission Road. We will muster just after 10:30 and start at 11 a.m. If you have a car etc., please ensure you have fuel in it…don’t laugh, that’s happened before.
The COMMUNITY PARADE was started by Gwen Hunter and has carried on every few years in her memory, organized by the fire department. It’s also a lot of fun to watch, so get your deck chairs ready. 75 days left until AUGUST 29, SATURDAY.
