Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 3:23PM Thank you to the captain and crew for getting the school kids and families home on Thursday’s 5:35 sailing. The crew worked as a team docking the ferry during strong rain and winds blowing onto the Thetis Island dock.
Well done!

Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 3:22PM Our dear friend and fellow islander, Kathleen McIsaac, died early January 15 at Royal Jubilee Hospital in Victoria quietly ending a year+ long battle with cancer. The link included here will take you to her beautiful obituary. She is sorely missed by many of us already, but we shall meet again when we go to heaven ourselves.

Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 3:20PM Hi All,
My Name is Oreste Panacui and I represent Abrupt Shellfish Inc., a locally owned shellfish company that operates an Aquaculture Lease near Scott Island for the last 10 years or so.
We are currently in the process of expanding our operations and are needing to apply for re-zoning of the proposed expansion site.
We will be hosting a meeting at the Thetis Island Marina Pub on Thursday, Feb 6th at 6-8pm to offer information about our plans for operation, maintenance and environmental practices on our Sub-Tidal Geoduck lease to any interested members of the Thetis Island community.
Looking forward to seeing you there and answering any questions.
Sincerely,
Oreste Panacui
Abrupt Shellfish Inc.

Sunday, February 2, 2020 at 3:18PM Attention: Received an email from Telus telling me that my payment did not go through. They wanted me to send all my information including my Visa card number. Just talked to Telus and this is a scam.
The emails look just like what Telus would use.
Do not send any information until you have talked to Telus via phone. 1-888-811-2323.

Thursday, January 30, 2020 at 6:35AM Our green Grumman canoe went missing between January 12th and January 24th. If anyone has information on where it might be, kindly text or call Jenn at 604-833-0775. It is an old canoe, but has great practical and sentimental value!
Thank you for your help!

Sunday, January 26, 2020 at 8:35PM Can you offer a service to our charity? SOAS ( School Orchards Africa) is holding a service auction at its February 15 event - HEART BEAT.
SUGGESTIONS:baking, cleaning, yard work, splitting/stacking firewood, cleaning gutters, pruning, window washing, sewing, tractor work, a dinner. All services are welcomed.
Many neighbours would value a few hours of your time and SOAS is hoping to raise enough money for another water storage tank at an elementary school in rural Tanzania.
