Meeting of the Thetis Island Marine Association (TIMA), Tuesday, February 6

TIMA is a volunteer advisory board, advocating for safe and equitable mooring buoy management on Thetis Island.

We have been working on mooring buoy registration and mapping moorings.
Moorings are required to have proper markings [name and Phone#] to be compliant with Transport Canada regulations -several moorings do not comply and some appear to be abandoned.

We anticipate more activity in Telegraph Harbour. We are meeting to discuss strategies to keep Telegraph Harbour safe and accessible for anchorage and navigation.

The Public is Welcome.
FORBES HALL
TUESDAY FEB 6, 5:00-6:00 pm

Please Don't Shoot at Our Sheep!

Thursday late morning, we had a report of a person (wearing a red jacket), south of us, shooting an air gun at our sheep!  

While the sheep were missed (we hope), the bullets did hit our barn close to where people were standing and close to our propane-fuelled generator! 

Luckily our grandchildren were not playing at the farm at the time.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time. We have also noted shooting at geese as they fly over and at a Peregrine falcon that loves our long driveway for his dinner table.

We are all blessed by the creatures that inhabit our Island including ourselves.

Please stop shooting at our sheep and farm and at the wonderful creatures that enjoy it, including our family!

You need a second shot within 6 months of the first to have the best response. 

Call and book an appointment with your favourite pharmacist if you are due.
