Gratitude from SOAS

On behalf of the team at SOAS, I'd like to thank everyone who contributed to the success of Follies on the Farm: the loan of tables, donation of goods/services , bringing of desserts , participation as a performer, facility preparation , transportation management , meal prep and presentation, serving and clean-up, decorations, and sharing of expertise. 

It was a team effort that raised  (to-date) $2,700. 

Once again, the generosity of this small community has contributed to the well being of a less fortunate population. 

Thank you everyone,

Maureen Loiselle

Friends of Furries update

It has been a busy year to date, assisting with the recent veterinary clinic on Penelakut Island led by Canadian Animal Assistance Team, with cat spay and neuters here on Thetis Island, rehoming one cat, etc.  And it is only May!  

Be sure your new cat or kitten is spayed or neutered.  It prevents unwanted kittens, cats injured through fighting, and can prevent some reproductive cancers in your cat as it ages.

Over 95% of our funding goes to veterinary bills to help low income individuals neuter their pets or get ill or injured animals assessed by a veterinarian.  

Our assistance is confidential and provided on a sliding scale.  The remainder of our budget goes to food, supplies or bank fees.    

All work is done by volunteers, if you are interested in getting involved with Friends of Furries please call Carol at 250-246-3699

Next Posting: Tuesday May 21st

Editor away for a family wedding, will return May 21st.

Anyone Going to Bing Creek Disposal?

The Community Association has a small collection of items that need to be disposed of.

Two broken small cabinets, paint, and assorted items.

If you have plans to go to Bing Creek, or just to town with a truck, and would be willing to take these things to Bing Creek, the Forbes Hall Expansion Committee would be very appreciative!

We will cover the disposal costs.

Please contact Ron Bannister 250-252-0099 or Tricia Hunter 250-246-2187 if you are willing and able.
