Our Association undertakes ecosystem education, improvement and protection activities that benefit the Jemseg Grand Lake Watershed community. Our activities accommodate seasonal residents wherever possible. The projects described here would not have been possible without the support of the N.B. Environmental Trust Fund, ACAP Saint John, the Hammond River Angling Association, and our other sponsors. Their support is gratefully acknowledged.
