Children's Christmas Bazaar & Tea (Telegraph Harbour)

Tuesday, December 17th at 1pm. All our island children are welcome. This is a THM sponsored event. Enjoy tea and goodies and share in the Christmas spirit.

Thank you for sharing in community contributions to the “Bazaar”. (Small, gently used items the children can select for their loved ones for less than a dollar or two) that a child may experience joy and pride in the spirit of giving.

Proceeds to be donated to the Thetis Library and items not selected will be donated to the Chemainus Thrift Store.

Thank You, from the Winter Concert Organizers

The Winter concert was a tremendous success, the community centre was packed!

A big Thank you to the performers: Ms. Lucchetti and all the elementary students, followed by Anika Elias, Amelia Ensminger, Edie Galbraith, Charlotte Aarberg, Ron Vandergaag, Tony Smith, Penelope Terry, and Simone Luckham. 

Special thanks to: Ron and Tony for setting up the sound system and taking down the stage. Elite and Athenia Willowbrook, and Doug Fenton for staying to help clean up and doing the dishes. Peter Luckham for looking after organizing the refreshments. To all who lent a hand with chairs, and those who brought goodies.

The generosity of amazing community members makes this concert so special.

Thank you all so much!

Found Dinghy

We've rescued a dinghy from The Cut after watching it float around the area upside down since the storm a couple of weeks ago.

White fibreglass in rough shape and with a single paddle still inside.

If it's yours or you know who it might belong to, please contact
Ann and Gary at 250-246-8176.

Post Office ... Canada Post still on strike

The Government has not made a decision on getting Canada Post to settle. The earliest, if the Labour Board approves, will be sometime next week.

The PO is still closed until the strike is resolved one way or another.

I will keep you posted (couldn't resist)... 😉

NOTES (and am happy to answer questions):

(1) We are not able to deliver. The range is on the second floor of our house. Jonathan can help get it down the stairs, but more strong bodies will be needed.

(2) The link is NOT our range but is a very similar model. In addition to the specs listed at link, our range has self-cleaning oven (up to 4 hours), cooking timer, clock, oven temperature 170F-550F, low & high broiler settings, warm & hold setting, 2 shelves & 7 shelf positions. Dimensions: Ht 46″/Width 30″/Depth 26”

(3) Our range has some flaws: The oven door handle screws need to be tightened every couple of weeks. We don’t have a manual, but the range is very easy to use.
