Re:  HCWA supports St Margaret’s Bay Marine Search and Rescue Society

Dear Members and HCWA Visitors,

At the October Hubbards Community Waterfront Association board meeting, a motion was passed for the HCWA to support the St Margaret’s Bay Marine Search and Rescue Society fund raising campaign for a new Inshore Rescue Vessel.  The HCWA hopes to raise awareness through membership email, social media, and the HCWA webpage.

HCWA will contribute up to $1,000 towards this campaign by matching member donations on the first $1,000 of donations received.  HCWA members can make their donations through HCWA and we will forward these individual donations to the Marine Search & Rescue Society.  The HCWA can collect member donations through various methods including e-transfer, credit, cheque, or cash.

Please contact hubbardscove@gmail.com to make arrangements for your donation.

Tax receipts will be provided by the SMBMSAR Society for each individual donation.

Below is a letter from the society with all the details regarding their campaign:

There was also a recent letter to the editor published in the Masthead News:

Any of us out on the water can feel safer knowing that help is available close by.
