National Volunteer Week

Greetings all Thetis Islanders  

April 19-25th is National Volunteer week.  

It's time to applaud this country's volunteers and of course including our awesome Thetis Island volunteers! 

As we celebrate the dedication and generosity of almost 13 million fellow Canadians (you included) who volunteer from coast-to-coast, let’s join together to applaud the immense contribution to our country and our community during National Volunteer Week and beyond. 

A personal note of gratitude for the extra efforts and ongoing gift of time given by all Thetis Island volunteers.  

I call this part of the happiness factor.  

You do good things.  

THANK YOU.

Thank You, Arthur and Leon

A very big Thank You from the TIVFD to our community neighbour Arthur Gooding for manufacturing and donating the head gear holders, and to Leon Signs in Duncan for donating the clear Mylar.

The First Responders now have some great, reusable face shields for medical calls.

They were unavailable to purchase due to the pandemic, and Arthur immediately stepped up to help us out and keep us safe.

Forbes Hall Community Volunteer Opportunities

Howdy Again Neighbours

We have more great opportunities to get to know one another a little better labouring together on various volunteer projects for our community hall. 

1. A big thanks to Gary Geddes and Randy Buhr who assisted with 'Completing' the leveling of fill soil within all the patio areas and also John at Pioneer who loaned tools for the job.

Thanks for a job well done guys. 

2. The exposed wood package of 2x6 & 2x8 still needs staining. There is some stain to get started and more is ordered. This project will take place at Michel's fabric covered shop. Stain, brushes, etc. will be supplied, you will need to bring your own PPE. The timber package is scheduled to be installed/erected in 3 weeks, thus the staining will need to finished by Friday May 1st at the latest. We hope to start this project once the project that currently occupies the shop is complete, possibly Monday or Tuesday. 

3. Once all the concrete is drilled to anchor the rebar, the rebar will then need to be laid out in a 1' grid and wire tied together on the levelled areas that were completed today. The rebar is scheduled to arrive late Monday. The start of this project to place and tie the rebar depends on the concrete drilling process. 

In my last notice I suggested that there would be more opportunities to rub shoulders with our neighbours, certainly from an acceptable social distance, and I've not been disappointed. 

It's truly amazing what we can accomplish together as a community. 

Thus, if rubbing shoulders with the likes a me and other neighbours tickles yer' fancy, give me a holler', drop me a note...

Hoping to rub shoulders with a few more of my neighbours from an acceptable social distance soon. 

Until then 

As Ti double gggrrr rrr says,

Don't get stuck in a honey jar Pooh
