We have continued improvements to our Bedford-Sackville Connector Greenway trail that now stretches from Bedford Basin to Lower Sackville and is used by thousands of walkers, cyclists and runners and are currently constructing phases 2 and 3 of Section B of the Sackville Greenway from Glendale Drive to Sackville Drive along the Little Sackville River.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our Fish Friends and River Rangers youth education programs have also been very successful. This year, 21 classes from 11 local schools were involved in the program, grades 2 to 4. The students had the exciting opportunity to study the newly hatched fry until they were returned to the river in the spring.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On Friday September 14th, 2018, the SRA will be holding its 15th Annual Dinner and Auction at the Sackville Legion.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are celebrating our 30th anniversary this year so we hope to make the 15th annual Dinner Auction one of our best yet!<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Your donation of any item or service would be greatly appreciated. Please call our office at 865-9238 if you are able to help.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you would like to attend the dinner, tickets ($30.ea) are also available at the same number.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thank you for your time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yours truly,<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Walter N.
