Burchell Hill Fundraising ~ one month to go!

One Month to Go! Lower Burchell Hill Nature Reserve Matching Pledge Campaign ~

ThINC has had a great response to the Matching Pledge campaign so far but we still have a way to go to meet our goal of raising $50,000 in new pledges by June 1. For every dollar pledged, an anonymous donor will match it dollar for dollar up to $50,000.   If you've been thinking of supporting this project with a pledge, we would love to hear from you before June 1 so we can fulfill this generous offer.  It will put us in an excellent position to apply to foundations and other funding agencies for land acquisition grants. If you need a pledge form or would like more information, email us at ThINC@thetisisland.net or download a pledge form from www.thetisislandnatureconservancy.org and mail it to the address on the form. You can also phone Ann Eriksson at 250-246-8176.  Thank you Thetis Islanders for your generosity! With gratitude from the Thetis Island Nature Conservancy.

Drone over Thetis Island ~

On Monday, May 4, watch for a small UFO flying over the Burchell Hill area. A drone videographer will be on Thetis to produce aerial film footage for a short video in support of the Lower Burchell Hill Nature Reserve project. The video, which is being produced with 100% volunteer time, labour and expertise, will be used for a social media campaign to help raise funds for the project.

Only 4 seats left on the Mother's Day sail and picnic: Sunday, May 10!

The beautiful tall ship, Grail Dancer is taking a lucky dozen people on an adventure along the west side of Valdes Island (with permission from the Lyackson First Nation) at either Hole in the Wall, to explore cliffs, or Blackberry Point, for wandering the beach and woods, depending on the winds. This delightful fundraiser benefits ThINC (Thetis Island Nature Conservancy) with a suggested donation of $30-50/person. Remember to bring your own picnic lunch and life jacket.

Contact Sue French to reserve a seat on board.
