Rain or Shine.... Jollity Time!

A few updates for the weekend due some scheduling changes.

We may run out of time to make all our goodies for Saturday market, so
there will be some yummy things available on both Saturday and Sunday.

Maybe you feel like staying home tomorrow if it's raining, we get it!
But... we have lots of food harvested so we will be happy to see you and
will be open Sunday too. We can put orders in the Kiosk after hours too.
Just send us a message - orders@jollityfarm.ca or 250.415.0101

With thanks from Jollity Farmers

Thank You

We would like to thank everyone who came to say goodbye to us on Tuesday. Thanks also to the Capernwray staff who provided the lovely lunch. We love and appreciate all of you and are going to miss you all terribly. We will always treasure the fond memories we have of this beautiful island and all it has meant to us. It is now time for us to go back to Alberta and be near our children. 

God bless you all.

Request for Volunteers - Thetis Island Family Fun Day

Hello Islanders! 

The Thetis Island Community Fund will once again be hosting Family Fun Day at Forbes Hall and the School Grounds on August 12. Last year marked the return of this long-standing Thetis Island tradition after a pandemic hiatus and the event was a great success! We owe much of this success to our eager volunteers and so we are putting out a request for volunteer assistance to ensure that this year’s Family Fun Day ends up just as fun and rewarding for kids and parents alike as last year's. 

The Community Fund Board will be meeting at Forbes Hall this Sunday, Jun 11 at 2 pm, to discuss this year’s event and so we invite interested volunteers to meet with us at this time. Help will be required on August 11 and 12 for set-up and take down as well as managing various game stalls and activities. Join us this Sunday to find out how you can support this wholesome community event.

With gratitude,

The Thetis Island Community Fund (TICF)
