Looking for Marine Batteries

Hello all

My name is Jasmine and I recently moved to Thetis Island in April of this year. I am living on a sailboat now, but needing a couple more batteries for running things with my boat. I have a starter battery. So, I’m looking for 6-volt & 12-volt batteries. If you have any kicking around that you would like to get rid of please contact
me by email jasmineeveanderson@gmail.com or call/text 250-619-1310. Can meet at the marina or could make arrangements to be dropped off at my friend’s house on Pilkey Point Rd. 

Thank you
Jasmine Anderson

Awareness Discussion

I have asked Ally Pascuzzi from Indigenous Corporate Training, Inc, to participate in the Indigenous Awareness Course. She got back to me asking me if I wanted to take the class as an individual or if there is a group of interested people. I thought I would post it on e-Spokes for all who would like to join me and take the class as a group. 

It would provide a good space for discussion.

If you are interested, please email me at jcerny07@gmail.com.

Pond Plants to Share

We have an excess of pond plants!

I do not know what they are called, but they are happy, low maintenance and pretty.
Please let us know if you’d like some and we can bag them up and set them out for pick up.
Free :)

Tetanus and Shingles Vaccine Clinic Saturday, Sept 30th at Forbes Hall

Mohamed (Mo) Osman, the pharmacist from Rexall on Esplanade in Chemainus, has kindly agreed to come to Thetis on Sept 30th and give Tetanus and/or Shingles vaccines.

You are eligible for a tetanus booster if your last shot was 5 to 10 years ago. Tetanus is covered by BC Medical Services.

You are eligible for the Shingles vaccine (which is usually not covered by BC Medical Services) if:

1. You have never had the vaccine.

2. You had the older version of the vaccine (it was a one dose vaccine).

If you have had shingles, you may still be eligible for the vaccine - talk to Mo when you call. Note the Shingles vaccine is now a two-dose vaccine with the second dose given 2 - 6 months after the first.

TO REGISTER: Call Mo at 250 246 2151 with your PHN number to sign up, OR you can email him at 7114rx@rexall.ca .

If you have any questions including whether you are eligible for these vaccines, please direct them to Mo.
