Friday, February 15, 2013 at 11:23PM RCMSAR craft tour and presentation
Book Talk follows immediately
As part of the TIMA winter programme, on Friday, 22nd February, the Thetis Island Marine association will welcome the ROYAL CANADIAN MARINE SEARCH AND RESCUE (RCMSAR) group which is based at Ladysmith. At 6.30pm our visitors will come by boat and secure at the Government Dock. You are invited to look over the craft.
Remember to bring a flashlight.
At 7.30pm the RCMSAR will deliver a presentation at the Community Centre illustrating their involvement in this extremely important work of search and rescue. With the federal government recently axing SAR services in our area the Ladysmith RCMSAR will certainly figure prominently in ensuring that we have a local, efficient "lifeline". To this end plans are being made to upgrade their fleet.
~~~ ~~~ ~~~
After the RCMSAR presentation Gary Geddes, a TIMA Board director, will talk about and read excerpts from his floating memoir Gary has written and edited more than forty books, but none so intimate and engaging as Sailing Home: A Journey Through Time, Place and Memory.
“Sailing Home is, if you’ll forgive the word, inspiring. Twenty pages into the book, you’ll find yourself selling your car, making a down payment on a boat, and setting out to live the life you’ve always thought you’d like to live. Gary Geddes took the gamble. He’s a little the worse for wear, but he offers us this perfect account of the dreamed voyage.”

Great for self defense and a chance to decide if you wish to get more involved in this sport.

For all of us last minute folks, or those who might have forgotten Valentine’s Day, I have a special offer. I have 3 openings tomorrow (Friday, Feb. 15th) for massage, a 10:00, 12:00 and a 4:00 appointment available, both this week and next on Friday. Give the gift of touch; Shiatsu releases muscles, tension and stress stored in the body. Pure essential oils warmed and massaged into the body in the quietness of the forest and with sounds of quiet music restores peace and wellness to the spirit and the body. From now until the end of February 2013 – I will treat you to an amazing discount price of $75 for a blissful 90-minute massage. Best deal on the island!
I have a brand new space, Serenity in the Woods, I work on Fridays and Saturdays, doing massage, energy healing, private yoga and nutritional consulting. Call Dawn Gordon, at 250-210-0826 and reserve a space for you or your valentine (or even better – both of you!). You can email dawn_gordon@telus.net First come, first opportunity to choose your space – you can even stop and see me at the Post Office and get a gift certificate today!!
Shine on, and have a brilliant day.
Happy Valentine’s Day
