St. Ann's Bay Development Association
The St. Ann's Bay Development Association (SABDA) began in 1992,
and was incorporated as a Nova Scotia Society in 1993. The Association
includes about 600 residents over a 72-kilometre stretch of the Cabot Trail,
from the St. Ann’s Bay turnoff at Highway 105 to the foot of
Cape Smokey.
In 1994, SABDA undertook a survey of all households in the
covered area, and, based on the results of that survey, developed
its current Strategic Plan for Community Social and Economic
Development.
Our Vision
The vision of SABDA is to maintain and enhance the quality of life
in the St. Ann's Bay Community by encouraging action by people of
all ages toward long-term social and economic development, using
the natural resources and talents of the community.
Next Meeting
Our next meeting is scheduled for 7:00 pm on
Tuesday 20 April 2010, in the Health Centre
at the North Shore Fire Hall, Indian Brook. Watch the
Community Events sheet for last-minute changes.
