Visiting Tre at the Vancouver Island Regional Correction Center is an essential way to help. Personal visits are a great way to meet Tre and understand why he is being silenced by the state. It also helps to lift Tre's spirits after having been locked up for over a year and a half Tre respectfully requests that you please use Public Transit. This would help reduce the pollutants released into our environment.
Tre's life inside the Centre is difficult and visits are extremely important for his spirits. Anytime you are able to book a visit, please do so.
* Visiting Times, Monday through Wednesday are one hour long and begin at 2:40pm or 4:15pm - Saturday and Sunday at 12:45pm, 2:40pm or 4:15pm - No visits are allowed on Thursday or Friday.
o The 4:15 timeslot works best for Tre's schedule, if that works well for you.
o The 12:45 slot works best on weekends.
* You can only call to book an appointment Monday to Friday between 9:00am-3:00pm - you must book at least a day before your intended visit - but you can book up to five days before your visit (call 1-250-953-4433).
* Use the name - "Michael Scarpitti" (not Tre Arrow).
* You must arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the visiting time or you will be denied entry.
* Make sure you have 2 pieces of ID with you for your visit.
* Be prepared to leave your personal items in a locker during your visit (bring a quarter to pay for the locker). Sadly, you are not able to bring in any thing during your visit.
* Tre can have two visitors at one time, but both need to book the visit.
* The separation from friends and family is hard on Tre - these visits, even from well-wishing strangers, are very much appreciated.
Please use mass transit. Take bus route 8, 21, or 22. The Vancouver Island Regional Correction Center is only a five minute walk from the bus stop at Interurban and Wilkinson Rd. (approximately 0.5km from Camosun College).
You can call Victoria Transit Information at 1-250-382-6161 or visit Victoria Regional Transit System for precise transit instructions/times.

Re: Visiting Tre
Wed, June 14, 2006 - 2:28 AMI just wanted to inquire about the possibility of giving Tre a massage.
I do massage and thought he could probably use some healing touch.
I don't have much in the way of resources at the moment and am in Vancouver, but I just thought I'd inquire and see what your thougths were about that. Probably couldn't set up a massage table hmm?
I just came across tre a couple months ago and am spreading the word. I think more people should know about this.
Let me know.
Thanks, Theda -

Wed, June 14, 2006 - 2:39 AMHey, what a great idea!
I met a guy who tried to get into the prison to offer massage. He was unsuccessful, but I think it may have had something to do with being an American citizen. Perhaps you could contact somebody at the prison to find out what their policy is around this. Info about the prison is on the website www.trearrow.org under "How you can help" followed by "Visit Tre"...
hope this helps...

Re: Visiting Tre
Mon, October 2, 2006 - 4:00 PMIs there a way to talk to Trey on the phone?
I heard there was, but couldn't find anything on the web site about it.
I'd like to meet him and talk to him, but I'm in Vancouver and won't be making my way to the Island for a little while.
What's the best wat to contact him?
Thanks, Theda -

Re: Visiting Tre
Wed, October 4, 2006 - 9:30 AMIf you want, you can give your phone number to someone (you could give it to me if you want, but there may be someone more direct). Tre regularly calls people who check his emails for him. He also really likes to listen to music when he calls you. He's amazing to speak to. If you give me your number, i'll give it to him the next time he calls, or give it to anyone that has contact. I don't think you can call him, but he'll call you. If you don't have a half hour to spare when you hear the "you have a call from ________at the correctional institute....yaddayaddayadda" then don't accept it, as he'll go down his list and find someone with a half hour to spare, cause that's how much he pays for.

Re: Visiting Tre
Wed, October 4, 2006 - 7:46 PMI don't have any valid ID, as I left the world of man many years ago. But I would greatly appreciate anyone that does get in to let Tre know I AM, here and now, and to remain strong because one way or the other, I shall open all doors and release those who are made prisoners by the corrupt. The birth of the NEW AGE has already begun. STAND strong. ALL their attempts to kill or stop me have failed. I don't have to look over my shoulder cause GOD's got my back.
Tell him to breathe DEEP...Breathe SLOW.
Remind him it was music that brought the walls of Jericho down.
Ut, ra, me, fal, sol, lal, ut (pronounced "ewe"...Ancient knowledge...don't underestimate it. After holding me illegally for 7 days, and threatening to do so for months until I plead guilty to one of the 2 false charges against me, I told them I would be willing to sit there for months until the walls fell down around me before I plead guilty to something I haven't done, and they should seriously take into consideration I AM, but a simple GODLY man, and if the GOOD LORD doesn't want me there...those walls may come down sooner than they think)
They said many have made such claims and what do I know that they don't...I simply rplied; "The root note"
They let me go that day. But postponed my trial until after my passport expired (thus the no ID), then dropped the charges of "Resisting Arrest & Obstruction of Justice". (Anyone notice how I don't actually have any charges to resist---in case you're wondering how honest your justice system is).
your humble servant,
Ancient Clown

Re: Visiting Tre
Thu, December 21, 2006 - 11:26 PMSo, I went and visited Trey this past Monday Dec 18. I am very glad I went. I have been wanting to meet him for some time, since a friend, Shiraz, posted some of Trey's writing on a blog on tribe here. I thought his writing was beautiful and was curious about who he was and why he was in prison. When I read the info on his web page I felt very strongly that this man needs support. I am inspired by who he declares himself to be, someone who is committed to freedom and justice and peaceful action. More and more freedoms are being taken away from people especially in america and I believe we need to stand up for this kind of injustice.
I feel that more people should know about him and all of us could pass on the word, even through inviting all our friends on tribe to join this tribe. Then they could check it out and see for themselves.
I am planning on creating a fundraiser for Trey in Vancouver in the New Year, with music and perfomance, I invite anyone who wants to to get involved or connect me with anyone who may want to be involved in this.
Also, there are some peeps who have been taking care of bring raw food to Trey, (apparently he may be one of or the only person in Canadian or North American prison who is permitted to receive food from outside) he expressed to me his appreciation and also concern that they could use some more support and help, either physically, financially or energetically. I encourage any of you who are involved in gathering food for Trey to put out some calls for assistance, let peeps know how they can help and create a wider circle of support.
You are all awesome, I know there are many of you out there that have been and continue to support him. Thank you for all you are doing.
Please feel free to contact me and invite friends to join this tribe and raise some awareness, also, if anyone knows more about this or what else we can do, let's talk. Thank You.
Namaste and Blessings
All this worlds people need is Love,
Theda
