November 24, 2019: James Crouse has forwarded this item about the Covered Bridges Conservation Association of New Brunswick Inc.

James writes that "we might want to consider joining -- and thus supporting -- this group in New Brunswick, where there appears to be a need to convince the provincial government of the value of preserving its built heritage in the form of its covered bridges."

Here is their mission contained in their Facebook group:

This association was formed as a not-for-profit organization to:

  1. Protect the remaining covered bridges of New Brunswick by having them declared heritage sites.
  2. Preserve and restore the remaining covered bridges in New Brunswick.
  3. Promote the history and heritage of the covered bridges of New Brunswick – past, present and future.

The National Society for the Preservation of Covered Bridges went on a safari this past July led by Bill and Jenn Caswell. Our Sarah Pierce went along as they visited 28 covered bridges. Check out the article Sarah Pierce in New Brunswick to see some of New Brunswick's covered bridges.
