In Search Of…

Hello,

We are looking for some items that some of you are interested in disposing of:

1. Windows that are narrow and longish for the free store we are building for the community.

2. Some spare metal roofing approximately four-foot-long pieces

3.We are also looking for a few old wooden doors, solid wood either with or without glass. 4. Some old wooden frame Windows

Anything you have to spare would be appreciated.

With gratitude…

Ps. We already have a generous trailer donation from the Galbraiths at Capernwray for the base of the free store.

Country Grocer Receipts Support Food Bank

A big thank you for continuing to save your Country Grocer receipts in support of the Harvest House food bank. Thetis islanders have been dedicated to this cause for countless years. The receipts add up and provide gift certificates for the food bank.

The receipt box is located at the post office boxes on the table next to Terry's stamp collection for cancer and the Island drop box. Thanks to Heather Gorrie for creating both boxes for us.

Goosey Gander Shop Open Saturday & Sunday 10am to 4pm

Thetis Island is home to many amazing and interesting people from all over the
world, so the Shop often has a fascinating variety of objects always coming in.

This week some Ostrich eggs from South Africa and Emu eggs from Australia arrived. We know Gooseys make big eggs, but these are whoppers!

Another world traveler brought in three 35mm cameras, and two Batiks from Bali also arrived. There’s a beautiful family sized picnic basket, an old Canadian cast iron frying pan, a Scottish bird watching book, an adorable kitty cat tea cozy, some teeny Taro cards with a book, a phone holder for a bike, a set of 50-year-old bright red Knott’s Berry Farm glasses, a quality Yorkville music stand, more pieces of brown Scandinavian pottery, a new men’s Roots leather wallet, and some 200-year-old collectible bottles including two ingenious old Codd bottles with the marble inside.

Come on by and have a look!

Bake Sale Plus Market

Today, Saturday, Aug. 30th at 
Thetis Island Pub and Marina at Dunfield Park,
"O'Pun" between (Irish time) Ten O'CLOCK until Two O'Clock.

See how many of these punny things you can find at the market:

Spring her egg roll, where Pi’s are squared, does hen eggs?, see a banana fritter, See da car fin, help the police and look for Herb and spies or Mat Loaf. Look for a pull, plumb, jambs, sheik and new dells. You may see a pro deuce at the veg tables. Relish the thought to meet Herb and Chaga TEE, or ban Anna raising loaves before she shouts Geez! Cake. No firing guns but you can fire saws. What is on the table? It’s our doe bred.

It may take a while to find all the items, but, after all, it is LABOUR DAY weekend.

Then, you can Chuckle late.
