2022 Visitors' Guide?

Last year's Visitors' Guide can be viewed at

https://www.thetisisland.net/ftp/Thetis_Island_VG_2021_final.pdf

If you would like to be included in this year's version, please let me know.  We will be losing some listings this year, so I hope we can gain some new ones.  The cost has traditionally been $5 per line of text. 

We'll try to keep it to that again.

If you would like to be the one to produce the Guide, or have any ideas about it, please please let me know!

ThINC’s second issue of The Ripple is now out. Read what to look forward to this summer with ThINC. Get a sneak peek into how you can fire proof your property while boosting local flora and fauna. And read about our Species at Risk Stewardship programs from the batman himself, Rob Welsh.

We will also place a few printed copies out and about in the community: at the ferry terminal and in the Forbes Hall library.

Happy May!

Thursday School Walk

This Thursday, May 19th, the students from TIES will be walking down to the cut to count sea stars! 

Just thought we'd put out a warning that we'll be walking on the road just before noon, and again around 2:00 pm.  

Please slow down for us! Thanks. 🙂

FireSmart & BBQ Lunch - Saturday 11 am - 1 pm

Fire season is around the corner. Are you prepared? Like to eat while you learn?

Following the talk will be a BBQ lunch (burgers, chips and a drink).  Door prizes!
