Credit can be a useful tool in your financial planning, but unfortunately it can also result in financial disaster if it is not well planned and carefully thought through. There are certain facts you should know about making purchases on credit, both regarding your own financial position and about the types of credit available to you. You should be aware of what amount of credit you can realistically afford. And what to do if you’ve taken advantage of too much access to credit.

The goal of your financial institution should be to help you make well-informed decisions and to show you how to avoid potential problems.

Chipoudy Communities Revitalization Committee (CCRC) was conceived in 2013, and became formally incorporated as a not-for-profit organization in 2014. With the vision of supporting economic and social growth of the area from Hopewell Cape Rocks to Fundy Park, various fundraisers were held in the early months. Borrowing from the experience in Nova Scotia, CCRC partnered with the Fundy Curling Club to offer Chase the Ace every Friday night. The idea soon caught on and the excitement was contagious. With money shared among the Curling Club, CCRC, the ticket winner and the jackpot, it was a natural money-maker for this area. With Stephen Land acting as Chef, people were able to enjoy a delicious meal along with playing for luck.
