Best community ever!
A big “thank you” to all those that helped out and donated to our recent Bake & Boutique Sale as well as those who assisted in the recent highway clean up and coffee mornings. We made over $1500 from the boutique sale and received $500 from MODL for participating in the Lunenburg Regional Community Recycling Centre’s Litter Clean Up Incentive Program.
The Broad Cove Community Association is also appreciative of the many many people who contribute to the community in so many ways. If you would like to become involved, or if you have ideas for events and activities please let us know. Contact any one of our board members or connect through our FB or web page: broadcovehall.ca.
