ThINC Announcement: Meet Our Amazing Summer Team!

Hello Thetis Islanders, 

We’re thrilled to announce that ThINC has hired two wonderful individuals to support our spring and summer programs! 

Amelia Marshall joined us this week and has already jumped into our community science initiatives and lent a hand with chipping for the People's Apothecary Garden. She’ll also be helping with preparations for this summer’s Nature House program.

In July, we’ll be welcoming Iliana Cutten, who will be helping to bring the Nature House back to life. After last year’s break, we’re looking forward to a summer full of energy, learning, and connection.

Keep an eye out over the next couple of months for updates on our summer programming and the occasional pre-season activity. And if you see Amelia out and about, don’t hesitate to say hello - she’s eager to meet the community!

Wishing you all a joyful start to the season and hoping you're enjoying this beautiful spring weather.

Warm regards,

Charlotte,

ThINC Stewardship and Education Coordinator

Short-term Volunteer Needed @ Forbes Hall Community Centre

Could this be you?

Our regular volunteer who maintains the grass areas at the Hall is going to be on holiday for most of May and part of June.

TICA is looking for a volunteer to do this work during this time period.

TICA now has an electric lawn mower and trimmer that can be used for this purpose. Perhaps once or twice would be sufficient. Orientation to the equipment will be provided.

There will be a Spring Cleanup at the hall on May 24th, so that could be an excellent time to do this lawn care.

If you would be able to help during this period, please email Don Sinclair at sinry@telus.net.

Thank you!

TIRRA Annual General Meeting, Saturday: May 24 at 2pm

The official notification for the TIRRA Annual General Meeting went out by email on Saturday to all landowners and members from 2024. If you should have received it and didn't, please check your spam folders, and if it's not there, please let me know at veronicashelford@gmail.com. It may be that you've had an email address change that isn't recorded in the bulk mailing program. The notification is also posted at TIRRA's webpages, at https://thetisisland.net/tirra/tirra-office.html.

As a reminder - this is an incredibly important meeting for the future of TIRRA - which is to say, the future of ANY garbage management on Thetis, any input on the state and maintenance of our roads, the trails system, the cemetery, the phone book, espokes - the list goes on. The work is not onerous, but it does need to be done. Please consider standing for one of the roles in the executive board ranks.

And remember the "snippets"! You can find them again at https://www.thetisisland.net/tirra/whatwedo.html
