Supper’s On ~ Saturday November 3rd ~ Wow!

There were 50 very happy people who enjoyed a meal of comfort food. Don Sinclair and Nettie Hayter with help from Donna Stadt put together Shepherds Pie both regular and an amazing Vegetarian option. This was served with a lemon, fennel & carrot salad and a Buttermilk Biscuit to top it off. For dessert people enjoyed fabulous apple pie baked by Gloria with whipped cream or cheddar cheese. Once again we were able to enjoy Pot of Gold Coffee thanks to Nan Beals.

The hall was very quiet during the meal as people were enjoying the feast.  We are so glad the community is enjoying the new Supper’s On events.  As well, we were able to raise $150 for TICA from the evening.

Big thanks to Don, Nettie, Donna & Gloria for this!

Recycle Yard looking for Volunteers ~

If you can spare (only) one or two hours a month volunteering for small, but much needed tasks at our Recycle Yard the staff and our community would be very grateful.   There is a sign up sheet on the back wall behind the Recycle table, better yet, please see Stephanie Cottell or Vicki Walker on either Saturdays or Wednesdays from 9AM –Noon.

Some of the tasks needing attention can be anytime during the week.

The continued success and sustainable of this essential community service depends a large part on volunteers.  Obviously, volunteers also help keeping our costs manageable.

Thank you for your continued support,

Thetis Island Sanitation/Solid Waste Committee (TISSWC)
