Happy May, Albert County!
There are plenty of reasons to cruise down the 114 to Alma, and we’d like to add two more to the pile! Our gift shop, Outpost East, located in the Visitor Centre of Fundy National Park, which is open every weekend, and Outpost Alma, on Main Street in Alma will be open starting the May long weekend. They’re a great place to get Fundy National Park gifts and local art, and each purchase helps us develop programming like the Rising Tide Trails & Tunes Festival and the February Frolic!
Here are some other things to keep an eye out for:
The 2025 Molly Kool Award
Nominations for the 2025 Molly Kool Award will open on May 25th. The Molly Kool Award was created to recognize women in Southeastern New Brunswick for their outstanding contributions to the community at large in such areas as arts, culture, conservation, and environmental stewardship. It’s an opportunity to highlight someone who enriches their community with their hard work but doesn’t seek recognition – you know the type! There will be a link to the online nomination form on our website and Facebook page. If you have questions email us at [email protected].
National Trails Day
Looking a little further ahead, we’re excited to celebrate International Trails Day and the annual Shepody Trail Spring Clean up on Saturday, June 7th. You’ll get more info right here in the next edition of Connecting Albert County, so mark your calendars!
