TIRRA Solid Waste Mail in Ballots

Apologies to anyone who has tried unsuccessfully to drop off ballots at the post office.

Sometimes Fred and/or Zola are away from the PO, and others step in to help and may not be up to speed on arrangements.

Islanders using the mail ballot are encouraged to address their ballots, and post without a stamp, in the Canada Post red box at mailbox shed.

Fred and Zola will ensure they are placed in the locked ballot box, inside the post office during the sort.

Thank you for voting.

Trying to find Paul

About 4pm Sunday, I swerved my Alfa Romeo vintage Spider, to miss a truck, hit a curb instead, flattening 2 tires, Tow trucks were 2 hours wait. A Samaritan, Paul, asked if he could help, he was from Germany and staying on Thetis Island. He drives a newer VW dark coloured bus, and has sleeping quarters in the back.

I was certain I had a bag of personal effects, tools etc, a parcel to be mailed, transferred to his vehicle, but forgot to take it out.  He said he lived on Thetis Island but was leaving for Germany tomorrow (Tuesday). He is tall and blond. If you know him or can reach him, please help!

Thank You from SOAS

On behalf of the SOAS directors, we'd like to thank everyone for such overwhelming support at our Homegrown fundraiser. From the food and gift contributions , to help with set-up, clean up and entertainment it was a beautifully orchestrated event. What an amazing community we have. Contributions are still coming in, so we'll wait awhile to give you our final count. But it is very impressive.

A few items have shown up that need a home : a small Pyrex pie plate, a black and white striped tea towel, a salad dressing jar with a green checkered lid. 

Gone missing: a  stainless ladle, French made.

Again, thanks so much for making the evening such a success.

With gratitude, 

Maureen and Wayne

The Case of the Missing Ladle...

Hello, on Friday evening, at the SOAS event, our ladle went missing.... dun dun duuun. Normally, we would not really mind if a ladle disappeared, but this one has sentimental value. It is a solid stainless-steel ladle with a long handle. I am not sure if there are any markings on it, but it might say: "Stainless Steel, Rostfrei Inox". We've checked the kitchen and the beverage station at Forbes Hall from top to bottom and despite the abundance of ladles there, ours is not one of them (although some look similar)! It was last seen in the Rajma (Indian red kidney bean dish) :) 

For anyone who attended the SOAS event and finds themself in possession of an unfamiliar ladle, please get in touch with us at 778  223 6647. 

Thanks, 

Charlotte and Sahir
