Thetis Island Phone Book ~ next edition

I am about to launch into putting together the next edition of the Thetis Island Phone Book. 

PLEASE - everyone who gets this notice -

email me at veronica@thetisisland.net and let me know if your current phone book information is correct, or if there are any changes,

or if you are new to the island since the last edition, let me know who you are and your contact information. 

Alternatively, you can go on-line and fill in the form at

http://thetisisland.net/phone-info-form.html 

Also, if you have a new neighbour, or if you have moved and know who has taken over your place here, please let me know that too. 

I'd much rather get the information twice than not at all.

Thank you!

Veronica

ThINC Thanks

Thetis Island Nature Conservancy (ThINC) would like to thank all those who came out for a dance and good time on Halloween night.

We had flora: flowers, mushrooms, lichen, and a cedar tree.

We had fauna: little brown bat, a family of ladybugs and a kitty cat.

We had ghouls: Darth Vader and a skeleton. We had sprites: a lovely woodland witch.

There was even a rock (obsidian)! A 50’s gal and more!

We appreciate all of your support for the conservancy and look forward to upcoming workshops with the community in the next year.
