Halkett Bay update

Hi everyone,

Well I see the flowers coming up so this can only mean one thing: Halkett Bay update e-mail.

Last year we managed to get quite a bit done thanks to wonderful volunteers. This year we are keeping the goals modest:
1. Building inspection
2. Finish siding and roofing
3. Electrical and plumbing building permits
4. Rough in electrical and plumbing
5. Build stairs
6. Finish Decking

We look forward to seeing you at Halkett Bay. We go up most weekends in spring and fall and almost every weekend in summer. Contact us for details.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is upon us although you wouldn't know it by the weather. We have a lot to be thankful for this year as in each of the past several years. Thanks to our friends and family, without whom we would not have been able to build a cabin on Gambier Island.
We will be heading to the cabin this weekend for Thanksgiving turkey dinner on Sunday. Let us know if you would like to join us for this feast - we would love to see you.

Big thanks to everyone!

Help Gambier Island

Gambier Island is facing numerous environmental threats at the moment when we are seeing a rebirth of wildlife. Wolves, whales, owls and more, all around us we see evidence of an eco-system on the rebound. But that resurgence is threatened by plans to allow clear-cutting, develop LNG plants, sink warships.
