World Oceans Day is coming up this Sunday, June 8th, and it's the perfect time to dive into all the reasons our oceans matter. The ocean gives us the air we breathe, regulates our climate, and supports an incredible diversity of life - including the creatures right off our own shores!
In celebration of this special day, we’re inviting you to a drop-in event at the Sea Life Centre at Telegraph Harbour Marina on Saturday, June 7th from 1-3pm. Come explore the fascinating world beneath the waves and meet the denizens who call the ocean home.
Keep posted to discover this week’s ‘Feature Creature’!

A big thank you to the crowd who showed up on a beautiful Sunday morning to tidy up the cemetery. Many hands make light work.
Much was done: grave markers cleaned, the weeding of borders and pathways, pruning and weed whacking. David Reay community organizer extraordinaire hosted the day which included a picnic lunch and conversation in circle. There was a lot of laughter and camaraderie as we all went about this work on behalf of the cemetery.
Added note-a Black jacket was left at the cemetery in the old section. Contact David Reay.
A claw gardening tool was also left. Contact Suzanne 250-246-9965.
Thank you again.
See you next year!

Capernwray harbour still has lots of hay for sale.
Good for your livestock.
Can be used for bedding.
Often used and garden compost as well. Lots of options.
For bulk orders we will do $12 dollars/bale for the first 50. Then we will do ten $10/ bale for every 50 after that.
If you cannot use the hay, please share this with someone you might know who would benefit.
Thanks a lot, island friend, pleasure walking shoulder to shoulder with you all.
Contact Dawson 250 809 7698 for details and pick-ups.
Thanks to those who reached out!We had a stackable washer dryer delivered this morning and the service would not move the washer dryer down our steep hill, which meant the old broken washer and working dryer was not removed and taken away. The new one is now sitting in our garage up at the top of our hill. I have a small dolly, but at 230 pounds it’s more than a one person job - 3 would be ideal. I also need to get the old one removed (the dryer works) and taken back up the hill.
We’re in need of a couple of strong hands to assist, preferably two more people to make it easier on all. I’m also, if possible, looking for a bigger dolly and straps.
If you’re willing to help out that would be greatly appreciated, I will generously make it worth your while.
Thanks in advance, please text or call when convenient.
