This month the province is holding public consultations in regards to ongoing coastal policy development and their State of the Coast Report. Since we all share this indispensable resource, it is very important for residents, especially us surfers, to make their voices heard on what we want to see the government do, how they should do it and how important the coast is to us.

Please take the time to attend one of the public forms listed below when it’s in your area:

–Bridgewater, May 4, Bridgewater Curling Club, 90 Dominion St.
