Ink Cartridges to Go!

I work at Capernwray and found some old ink cartridges for Epson printers. They will expire soon in June 2016 but are original Epson sealed in boxes never opened. Don’t know if they are still good but they do go for over $40 each at Staples. Therefore, I’m just wondering if anyone on the island would have a matching printer so that they can get used rather than thrown away. The matching printers are listed on the cartridge boxes but here is a list:

2 Epson T009201 Color Ink Cartridges for printers: Epson Stylus Photo 900, 1270 or 1280

2 Epson T007201 Black Ink Cartridges for printers: Epson Stylus Photo 780, 785EPX, 825, 870, 875DC, 875DCS, 890, 900, 1270, 1280

1 Epson T040120 Black Ink Cartridge for printers: Epson Stylus C62, CX3200

Anyone interested can contact me by phone at the Capernwray office or by email:sfalardeau@capernwray.ca

Comment on Mari-culture Lease

The principles of the Islands Trust are to 'preserve and maintain' the Area under jurisdiction. The development of the Thetis side of the 'cut' to mariculture certainly does not fulfill these fundamental principles. IF there was some benefit to Thetis Islanders by such development, then it might be considered  by the residents of Thetis, however, I see no indication of there being any benefit only potential negatives to Thetis.   In my view, the fact that it is potentially a Penelakut  organisation that wants the licence does not give me much confidence in the potential operation as illustrated by the 'harvesting'  by persons from Penelakut, of almost all the oysters along the foreshore of the Thetis side of Telegraph Harbour over the last two winters.

In summary, I am against the proposal.
