The Thesen Islands Living and Leisure Club
History
In the early developing stages of Thesen Islands a group of ladies got together to start the Thesen Islands Gardening club, with the aim of getting acquainted as new residents and helping each other creating their new gardens on the island. In 2005 and 2007 the Club organized the very successful "Thesen Open Gardens" event where interesting and outstanding gardens were opened briefly to the public for a small fee - all the proceeds were donated to local charities.
The club has since evolved into the Thesen Islands Living and Leisure Club with its focus on the celebration of Island friendships and the appreciation of Knysna and its surrounds.
Activities
Regular get-togethers are held and the agenda varies from speakers and local entertainment to expeditions used to uncover hidden treasures on Thesen's doorstep. The Club invites all Thesen Islands residents to join and promises a stimulating exchange with interesting people and enchanting outings.

Thesen Islands on-line community forum
Given that Thesen Islands has both permanent as well as many migratory residents, it seemed natural that advantage should be taken of the social media to bring this unique community closer together. As a result a group of Thesen Islands residents have started a new community forum where Thesen residents can communicate with each other on-line.
Participants will be able to discuss a wide variety of topics relevant to Thesen homeowners, write blogs, arrange polls and select friends with whom more information and updates with (including events, photos and videos) can be shared with.
To sign up, please visit http://www.thesenislandforum.co.za. For more information you can contact Mr. Trent Rossini at trent@inquba.com or cell phone 083 445 4321.
NOTE: The forum is a private initiative of the residents and as such is not an official communication channel of the TIHOA or the Trustees of Thesen Islands.
