Story of the Coasters Association : Celebrating 25 Years May 1988 - May 2013
Abstract
The Coasters Association is a non-profit organization formed in St. Augustine in 1988 by a group of concerned citizens of the Lower North Shore. (refer to Annex 1 - Steering Committee) The association was incorporated in La Tabatiere in 1991. It is administered by an elected, volunteer, Board of Directors, with representatives from 5 municipalities and four designated seats (youth, seniors, disabled and education). (refer to Annex 2 – Board of Directors) The Association’s work is mainly funded by the Ministry of Canadian Heritage, while the remainder of its funding is received from other government departments (i.e.: federal, provincial, municipal, and local), as well as fundraising, donations and membership drives. The Coasters Association’s membership stands at 3,542 and with each new member, the Association becomes stronger!
