Post Office Changes ~

As many of you are aware my family and I have moved to Parksville. I will be working my last day at the Thetis Island Post Office Wednesday November 4th. I have enjoyed my time as the postmaster and I will miss everyone.

Sonya Pitcairn will be taking over all the duties at the post office so please welcome her to her new position.

We will still come to Thetis Island for various functions and celebrations and if anyone needs to contact me or any member of our family our phone number is still the same. Thetis Islanders, you're a great community and you will be greatly missed.

Kevin McClellan, the soon to be ex-postmaster.
