Default creating a collection of Sheets references

I want to treat all the sheets in a workbook, except for the first one, the
same way in various methods. So I wanted do something like:
Public NonControlWorksheetCollection As New Collection

Private Sub createNonControlWorksheetCollection()
' populate a collection of Sheets that doesn't include the Control Worksheet
' assumes the control worksheet is worksheet 1
Dim counter As Integer
Dim wks As Worksheet
Debug.Assert ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Name = CONTROL_WKS_NAME
For counter = 2 To (ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count)
Set wks = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(counter)
NonControlWorksheetCollection.Add (wks) <--------------------error:
method or property not supported
Next counter
End Sub

Since this didn't work, I did the below two methods, but it seems there
should be a more elegant solution.
TIA

Private Sub createNonControlWorksheetCollection()
' populate a collection of Sheets that doesn't include the Control Worksheet
' assumes the control worksheet is worksheet 1
Dim counter As Integer
Debug.Assert ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Name = CONTROL_WKS_NAME
For counter = 2 To (ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Count)
NonControlWorksheetCollection.Add (counter)
Next counter
End Sub

Public Function getWorksheet(index As Integer)
' To ease the burden of object creation in methods needing
nonControlWorksheets
' returns a Worksheet object for the passed index
Dim wks As Worksheet
Set wks = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(index)
End Function
