Dropping Off Items at Forbes Hall

Over the past few weeks there have been unsolicited items left at the entry of Forbes Hall, apparently because the donor thought the items could be used.

Please do not drop off any items without first getting approval by contacting either info@forbeshall.ca or someone directly connected with the end use of the items.

Unfortunately, these items usually end up in the garbage or recycling - which simply makes more work for volunteers.  

Thank you

Reminder: be alert to ticks

If you or your pets are in the bushes, check out the BC Gov page on ticks.
https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/agriculture-seafood/animals-and-crops/plant-health/insects-and-plant-diseases/home-garden/ticks

It has info on “our” tick, the "Western Black Legged" Tick: how to remove them and how to protect yourself.

The best method of removal is to twirl the tick until it backs out whole, then burn or totally squash it.  The trick is to never squeeze the tick so that it regurgitates its stomach contents back into the bite or pull it out leaving the head and jaw parts in place to get infected.

This information has been posted before and may be posted again as needed.
