Sunday, July 23, 2023 at 11:24AM Looking for a canoe trailer or an old boat trailer to put our canoe on so we can tow it with our car instead of using the roof rack. It would just be for on-island use, so it doesn’t have to be necessarily “highway-worthy.” Also, happy to improve/modify something that’s not quite right or adequate in its present condition. So, if anyone has an old boat trailer sitting around that they’re not using and willing to sell, please call, text, or email - Thanks!

S4: Archaeology from Stream to Sea with Nicole Smith (youth, adults)
Location: Forbes Hall
Come test your archaeological eye in this presentation by archaeologist and newly published author, Nicole Smith. Can you identify the many ways in which Indigenous peoples have shaped, managed and cared for local coastlines over thousands of years? From fish traps to clam gardens, hear how Western and First Nations scientists are learning from these places, and how archaeology may be useful in today’s changing world. Nicole will also read from her new book for young readers, Dig Deep: Connecting Archaeology, Oceans and Us.
We will also be at the Howling Wolf Market between 10:00 am - 2:00 pm on Saturday. In addition to our regular items, we will be selling books by this week's S4 guest speaker, Nicole Smith! Look for the blue tent!

Saturday, July 22, 2023 at 8:08AM For all Thetis residents, my name is Jennifer Nielsen and I’m an RMT and I have practiced in Chemainus and at times at Forbes Hall on Thetis for several years now. Starting July 31st, I will be renting my own space again in Chemainus at 9847 Willow Street. Since I will have my own space, I will no longer be coming over to Forbes Hall to practice, but I am expanding my hours and am happy to welcome new patients at this time.
Online booking can be found through my website at www.jennifernielsenrmt.com
