#30YearsofACAP

ACAP Saint John’s very first logo (1992).

 

ACAP Saint John was founded in June of 1992 by a group of dedicated volunteers who envisioned a community residing within an environmentally healthy estuary, evolving within the aesthetic, cultural, social, industrial and ecological realities of the area. This group signed a letter of understanding with Environment Canada to create comprehensive management plan and thus began our journey.
