What better time than Spring to announce the Annapolis Royal Refresh! community collaboration.

We’re teaming up with the Town of Annapolis Royal, Annapolis Royal Farmers and Traders Market, and AIRO - Annapolis Investments in Rural Opportunity to give Market Square and the Annapolis Royal Wharf a bit of a refresh. Working together, and with the help of Build Nova Scotia, we’ve managed to secure $60,000 of funding through the Nova Scotia COVID-19 Response Council at Dalhousie, which was funded by the Nova Scotia Government.

We’ve identified three projects that support our economy and help create stronger connections in the community and we’re going to need your help to really bring this refresh to life!

We’ll be sharing more details about how you can join Annapolis Royal Refresh! and be a part of how this all rolls out…we’re excited to get started on this community-wide collaboration so stay tuned! 😀
