Thetis Island Marina & Pub Special Musical Event - Zonnis!

Special Musical Event - Back by Popular Demand :)

on Thanksgiving Weekend - Saturday Oct 12

beginning at 7pm --- Zonnis! 

Zonnis is composed of married duo Andrea & Adam Zonnis, two star-struck lovers who tour the world spreading their message of peace, love and good times.

Their style of “Cabaret Folk”, hearkens back to an era when folk music took risks, playing out-of-the-box styles with daring grit and heartfelt personal content. Embracing the attitude that no two songs should sound the same, they continually strive to create new and exciting compositions that will leave you wanting more.

Combining Andrea’s virtuistic voice with Adam’s gravelly sense of humor and energetic guitar playing, their unique style has been appreciated by crowds around the world, including many festival appearances across Western Canada, backpackers haunts through Latin America, and even a live spot on Ecuadorian National TV.

Blood Pressure Clinic & Fire Prevention Week

Our Community Paramedic Georgia Nelson will be at the Solid Waste Recycling Centre this Wednesday from 9:30 to 11:30 to check your blood pressure and answer health questions you may have.  

This is Fire Prevention Week.  Now that the rains are here and you will be using your clothes dryer more, this is a good time to clean out your dryer vents to ensure they are clear all the way to the outside.  Check that no furniture was pushed against your baseboard heaters during the summer. Have you cleaned your wood stove chimney yet?

The TIVFD will be assisting the school with their Fire Drill on Wednesday between 10:30 and 11:30 and the Engine will be on North Cove Road.

Ancient Bingo Machine and Cards

When we were clearing out our crawl space, we discovered that we had been storing, for TICA, a very old electric machine for "calling" bingo numbers, and boxes of cards for people to use, for community Bingo nights.  TICA no longer wants them.  

Does anyone else on the island have a yen or a use for these items?  If not, they'll go to the Thrift store, or wherever else we can find that will take them. Pictures are up at

Puzzles & Trails

Hello Thetis - I am looking for two items: 

1.  Puzzles - if you have old puzzles or board games on your shelves collecting dust, I'll be happy to take them off your hands

2.  Trail maps of Thetis - I've read a lot about the walking trails on Thetis. Does anyone have a map or information they can share on where to access the trails, the distance, views, difficulty, etc.

If you have information on either items, I invite you to email me at amyireney@gmail.com with your phone number (cell phone service patchy and unreliable in our property) and I will reply via email or phone based on your preference. 

Cheers,

Amy

Is This Your Cat?

Does it belong to someone on the island?

Thanks,
