Our Programs
The Society has four programming pillars based around its mission and continues to develop programs and projects that serve these ends.
Recognition
The St. John River Society believes in the importance of recognition for the St. John River on the national stage. The Wolastoq/ St. John River is recognized as one of the most important rivers in Canada. The St. John River Society is committed to recognizing the significance of this river to both New Brunswickers and Canadians, and undertakes projects and opportunities that can highlight and increase the recognition of this significant river.
Access
The Society believes that this river is a river of the people. We believe fundamentally that all people should be able to access it and The St. John River Society undertakes projects that guarantee this access in perpetuity.
Education
With over 12,000 years of natural and human history along this river, there are endless opportunities to educate New Brunswicker and Canadians about the stories and experiences of this river.
Sustainable Management
The St. John River Society is dedicated to working collaboratively with partners along the river on projects and programs that ensure the sustainable management of the natural, cultural and recreational resources of the Wolastoq/ St. John River.
