New Design TICA Merchandise

New merchandise featuring an image of Maynard Johnny Jr.'s art installation will be available at Soup’s On this week and also at the Christmas Market Dec 3rd.

In 2020 Maynard was commissioned in the Spirit of Reconciliation to create a large exterior wall panel for the Forbes Hall Community Centre. The image of this artwork has been printed on black t-shirts, to copy the installation’s background.

All t-shirts are long sleeve and 100% cotton.

Tree Down at Fairyslipper Trail

A large fir has fallen across the north section of the Fairyslipper loop trail and taken several other trees with it. That section of the trail will be closed until further notice. A closure sign has been posted at the beginning of the loop.

Thank you for your understanding.

Stamps for Cancer

I would like to thank all those who kindly contributed their USED POSTAGE STAMPS in response to my previous appeal.  Those stamps were delivered to the B.C. Cancer Society.  They in turn sell these donated stamps to help raise funds for children with cancer and research in British Columbia.

My last submission was an amazing 5+ pounds of stamps!!!  To date, $482,558.14 has been raised in British Columbia alone for these causes from the sale of the stamps.

I will be at the Christmas market this year at Forbes Hall as a vendor.  This would be a great opportunity for anyone who may be thinking of attending to drop off their used stamps.
There will be a sign at my table marked “ STAMPS FOR B.C.  CANCER SOC.”

Hoping for another 5 pounds plus!!!

Thank you in advance,
Terry Harvey
