Reminder: Calling All Family Fun Day Volunteers

A brief Family Fun Day Volunteer meeting will be held at 7:00PM, Monday, July 28th at Forbes Hall.

Whether you have already advised us you will be volunteering, or you have just decided you are available to help, please join us. Even if you only have an hour to assist, the kids and adults attending for games, food and activities will appreciate your support. Come and see your fellow volunteers, meet the hosts from Thetis Island Community Fund, and get information on the plans for this legacy event on Saturday, August 9th.

The Book and Bake Fundraiser is One Week Away. Yikes!

As there isn’t storage, please bring book donations on Thursday. I will be there 10-2. If I am not, please put them in the entry closet or outside. We will put tables out and display on Friday after exercise class at 9.

Also, you can bring books Friday and even Saturday morning if need be. We are pretty flexible.

The Book and Bake sale is from 10-1 on Saturday August 2. This is my 18th year! It is always a lovely day. 

No lunch this year but baking, tea, coffee, juice and BOOKS!

I am looking forward to seeing you.

Goosey Gander Shop is open this weekend Saturday and Sunday 10am to 4pm

In between all the important water related happenings this weekend, if you have a chance, drop in and have look at all the items for sale from your Thetis Island neighbours.

A bit more yarn has arrived, along with a solid wood glider rocker in wonderful condition. There are also some tiny adorable pewter trinket jewelry boxes in, a spice shelf with ceramic drawers, an experienced basketball hoop with net, a colourful hammock, a sweet model of a fishing boat, and to keep on the water theme, three gutter mounted roof sprinklers and an outdoor shower rig too.
