Tuesday, October 3, 2023 at 7:56AM For those donating their bottles & other containers to
the Thetis Island School, ….
PLEASE—PRETTY PLEASE--carefully sort your donations.
This is NOT the place for NO-REFUND items.
No-refund items stress the refundable bottle/container system and have to be removed and disposed of by our hard-working volunteers L
We have updated our signage with beautiful artwork by the students which clearly indicate which items are accepted at this site. All other items need to be taken off island to a local recycling depot such as Peerless or Bings Creek.
NOTE: Containers such as coffee cream and soup broth are not “ready to drink” and cannot be accepted.
We want to thank our faithful community for continuing to support our school with your consistent donations! It really does make a difference for the students in your community.

Tuesday, October 3, 2023 at 7:55AM Tuesday, October 24th at 7PM, Forbes Hall, will be the Fall Meeting of TIRRA (Thetis Island Residents' and Ratepayers').
Personalized notices have been sent via email. If you did not receive a notice, and you are a TIRRA member or new landowner, please advise us at tirracommunications@gmail.com, to correct for future advices.
Apologies to those who did receive the notice: We are re-sending the notice, as a technology glitch caused the June 29 date to be pulled forward to this October notice. Thank you for your understanding as we adapt to the new protocols and the odd glitch surfaces.

There are again many more new items this week, lots of jewelry, a ‘baby’ table full of baby items, charming kids’ toys, and quite a few miscellaneous interesting things including a harmonica with instruction books, a kaleidoscope, and even some signs that light up. Come on by and have a look.
Thank you,
