New Events at Tahsis Days
This year's Tahsis Days had all the old favourite events but also featured some new ideas. Here are three of them.
The RCMP detachment sponsored a Graffiti with the Fuzz event where anyone could come and paint their truck. This is the truck they leave at the Coast Guard house so they have a vehicle when they come in by boat. One officer told me they call it the "scarecrow truck".
This year's new food event was a dessert competition. Eleven people participated and a good crowd showed up to be the judges. Winners were: Marius was first, Lori was second and Jennifer was third.
The third new event was flower arranging. First place went to Maureen, second to Lori and third to Ruth R.
And even though Slugfest is in its 8th year (not new), I have to share the winner of the cutest slug hunters you will ever see. Karter and Kessler won for the second year in a row.
Thanks to Allison, Lauren and Silvie for the photos.
Many thanks to Lauren, Sarah J., Pat and Ruth who did the major part of the planning for the weekend.

Tahsis Inlet voted BC's top boating destination for 2019
Tahsis Inlet Voted BC's Top Boating Destination for 2019
We asked and you answered! British Columbians have voted beautiful Tahsis Inlet as BC’s top boating destination for 2019 - while Port Alice, Alert Bay, Desolation Sound and Princess Louisa Inlet round out the top-five.
Tahsis Inlet is located midway up the west coast of Vancouver Island where the pristine geography is the setting for some of the best ecotourism and productive fishing waters in British Columbia. A spectacular cruising ground for boaters, Tahsis is home to 500 year-round residents and about 1500 during the summer months, and for good reason. Surfers are attracted by the wild Pacific waves off Nootka Island and Brooks Peninsula, while strong inflow and outflow winds create great conditions for windsurfers and kiteboarders. The areas is also home to world-class scuba diving sites and kayakers can enjoy the sheltered inlet waters, the rugged coastal scenery, and abundant ocean wildlife.
