Our grandchildren will be selling lemonade and cookies. Half of the proceeds for the yard sale and the lemonade stand will be going to cancer research for children. We will let everyone know how much we raised after the sale.
Here are some of the items we will have for sale: orbital sander, paint sprayer, contractors light, plumbing supplies, lawn chairs with cushions, duvets, glass carboys for wine making, happy light for seasonal affective disorder, a wide variety of speakers and stereo equipment, lawn chairs, shop vacuum, drill and more!
We plan on selling the following items for under a dollar: dishes, canning jars, and other miscellaneous items.
You can not pull into our driveway. You will have to park at the end of the ferry line up or park along Pilkey Point Road between 59 and 60 Pilkey Point Road.

Take a cool break!
Visit the library today between 1pm and 4pm!
Friends of the Library
Although the Purple Air air-quality monitor at the Thetis Island School is not functioning (the Cowichan Valley Airshed Leadership Committee and CVRD were informed of this), there are readings in the purple and red for Chemainus and Ladysmith right now due to the smoke haze that is also lying over our island. Folks with compromised respiratory conditions should limit your outdoor activities.
For this extended heat period remember to drink water BEFORE you feel thirsty. If you need some respite from your overheated house, take advantage of visiting Forbes Hall when it is open. They have air conditioning, including in the library.
A good hint for your house…freeze bottles of water and place them in front of your fan to cool the moving air.

Wow! 21 volunteers arrived at the hall on Friday to set up for the Famous book and bake sale on Saturday so we are ready to go with the books, dvds, cds, magazines etc.
A buck a book.
See you there.

Today's Natural Fibre Dying workshop with Emily McIvor will be postponed to sometime in August! Too many fun activities are happening tomorrow, including the Book and Bake Sale at Forbes Hall and we don't want people feeling stretched! Keep your eyes peeled for this exciting event :)

Hi Thetis Islanders,
Heads up again regarding the Penelakut Tribe’s invitation to Thetis Island Residents to participate on the unceded territory of the Penelakut People on their 2nd annual “March for the Children,” which will be taking place on Aug 1, 2022. The march starts at the Salish Market/Chemainus Ferry Terminal. In the Village of Sunuwnets, also known as Chemainus.
Starting time: 0830h
Please wear your Orange T-shirts, bring a hat & water if it is hot. Don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you have questions. Tshirts are available at Salish Market (the same one seen across Canada) and Riot Brewery (by a different artist).
See you there.

I am humbled and grateful to live and work in the traditional territories of the Penelakut & Lyackson Peoples...
Disclaimer: Territorial acknowledgements are just one small part of reconciliation. Please take a moment to think of other ways you can enact reconciliation.
Those wishing to pay their respects are welcome.
Those attending are asked to wear a mask.
