Vandalism at the School

We are disheartened to let the community know that the art installation of stepping stones, which had been created by past students and formed a circle around the apple tree, were vandalised sometime over the summer. Someone took two random stones out of the ground and smashed them to pieces in the nearby woods.

We thought the community should be made aware of this.

Suspicious Activity

Last night (Wednesday) about midnight someone was shining spotlights around the harbour this time not from a boat. When houselights came on, a pickup backed out of Lot 60 driveway at speed spinning tires.

Possibly pitlamping deer?

If you heard shots, please inform your neighbours. This is unsafe.

Yoga 10am Saturday with Karen

Noticing this beautiful light and with the Autumn equinox approaching, I'll be teaching a soft breath-led morning flow on Saturday, listening to some tunes, starting slowly before building into a quietly uplifting sequence. Open level class, with options to soften or progress depending on how you’re feeling.

Bring your mat, maybe a cushion, and your lovely energy.

Call Out for Thetis Island Calendar (2027) Photo Submissions

Looking forward to seeing this year’s collection of fabulous photos!

Photo Submission Information

Requirements and information for submitting your photos.

Meeting these four requirements will help to ensure your photo makes the first cut.

1. Photo file size - minimum of 1.5 MB: if you take photos with your phone, email the photo from your photo app not through another app such as Facebook. Note that photos will be cropped to landscape orientation, edited as needed and enlarged to 8” x10” for printing.
2. People: no identifiable people will be included.
3. Local images: must be of, on or from Thetis.
4. Focus: check that the image is clear and in focus – if using a phone, enlarge the image to check before sending.

Note: Calendars are landscape-oriented, it is important when a portrait-oriented photo is submitted that the file is large enough to have good definition once cropped to 8.5 x 11 landscape-orientation.

Cut off for submissions is September 14th.

E-mail submissions to
info@forbeshall.ca
Subject: Calendar
Include the following in your email:
• Your first and last name (not all email addresses let us know who you are).
• Location or identifier: where the photo was taken from, what the photo is showing, etc.
• Month photo was taken in.
Limit of eight photos from each photographer, choose wisely! Separate into groups of no more than three per email.

All submitted photos are given with your permission to be edited, used in the calendar, displayed, or used in any other way that benefits Forbes Hall Community Centre. All will include photo credit.

Proceeds benefit TICA and Forbes Hall.

Available in November 2026 for $30.

Once again, we’re excited to see Thetis through your eyes!

The Ripple - Sept 2026

The Ripple is back with our September issue! This time around, we're celebrating the people and programs that made this a summer to remember - from a community spotlight on a talented local artist, to reflections from our ThINC summer staff on everything from music in the forest to bat counts under the stars.
