Community Activities
Community Activities are free of charge or by donation.
The schedule is set at the start of a new Activity, and a new contact list with the basic schedule is reviewed and updated each September. Daily changes or cancellations may not be reflected in the calendar. Organizers usually post one-off changes on e-Spokes.
Please contact the person leading the activity if you’d like to join in.
Included in this schedule are Health, Wellness and Educational activities, which require a registration and fee. The booking is at half the commercial rate to make these activities more affordable to the Thetis Island Community.
