Volunteers for eSPOKES

We are looking for a few volunteers who could take turns posting the daily eSPOKES emails. 

Usually, we take it by the month, but other arrangements could be considered.
The pdf of our Guidelines will give you an idea of how this works; eSPOKES is a committee of T.I.R.R.A. 
Please feel free to ask questions if you think you might be interested. Contact me at:  espokes@gmail.com

On the Hunt for a Bookshelf!

Hello folks! I am on the lookout for a bookshelf - I have too many books! I'd love a bigger one but only have space for one that's three feet wide-ish. In a perfect world it would be closed in (with doors) but I'm also happy with an open faced one. Happy to pay and can pick up on Sunday or Monday. 

Please send photo and price to harbourcitycontent@gmail.com. 
I so appreciate this incredible community! 

Jess

Jollity Farm Update

We have received an overwhelming amount of support to our call for volunteers. WOW...THANK YOU!
The project is scheduled for this SUNDAY, as this is the day that works best for the majority.
11am is the start time.

If you have offered to bring a leaf blower, we say "yes please and thanks".
Electric/battery powered will be best as we can't run many extension cords up there.

If you aren't transporting a leaf blower, please park in the lower lots and walk on up.

If you don't want to stay for a BBQ, please let us know, otherwise we will assume you are.
Questions, replies to info@jollityfarm.ca

Horse Lover Hoping for a Horse That Needs Some Love!

Hello lovely Thetis folks! 

I am Jess - new to the island with my two forest kiddos. I spent my twenties training horses all over the world and leading trail rides etc and I am longing for some horsey connections. If anyone is needing some help exercising their horse or would like to trade riding for stall cleanup or jobs around the farm - I am your woman!

I don't have any tack here - so I'd need to borrow yours but I'm proficient in western and English riding, or bareback! If this might be something of interest, please email me at harbourcitycontent@gmail.com and we can discuss an arrangement that works for all of us, horse included! 

Thanks so much

Campfire Ban to be Lifted Saturday on Thetis

The solid fuel campfire ban will be lifted on Saturday, September 24th on Thetis Island and evening campfire permits will be available for the period of Sept. 24 to October 31st.  Burn barrels, yard waste piles, fireworks, sky lanterns are still banned at this time.  Evening campfires must be smaller than 18” and you must have water and tools sufficient for extinguishing your fire until it is cold to touch. There must be a responsible adult supervising the campfire at all times.

WE ARE CONTINUING IN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD for at least the next several days.  The Rating is still 5.  We use three reporting stations for our data: North Cowichan, Salt Spring and Cedar and average them and they are continuing at 5-EXTREME.  You can check the daily ratings here:  

https://wfapps.nrs.gov.bc.ca/pub/wfwx-danger-summary-war/dangerSummary fireCentre=Coastal%20Fire%20Centre 

To apply for a fire permit, go to www.thetisislandfire.ca and chose the Fire Permits link on the left side of the Home Page.  

Please continue to be extremely careful, especially with campfires.  

Make them small and sparkless.  

There have been more human-caused bushfires this past week in our region, with multiple fire departments having to attend.
