Bottle Drive


We are not having a formal bottle drive this year. However, MSRA has been registered at the Subway Bottle Exchange on Pictou Road in Bible Hill, and you can ask that any return from your bottles be donated to us directly through them when you drop them off. We can also make arrangements for you to drop items off or have them picked up. Please email msrecreationassn@gmail.com for information.

Our Annual General meeting was held on Feb. 2 with Sandra Chaplin returning as Chairperson, Jeannie McCurdy as the Treasurer, Brian McCurdy as the Vice Chairperson and Kim White as Secretary. Jennifer Fisher, Kirk Redden and Marianne Lohnes returned as directors. Membership fees were set at $1.
