Amherst is dialing it down when it comes to councilors going to national meetings.

The maximum number of councilors that go, will be three.

Mayor Dr. David Kogon says that will save about 9 thousand dollars, regarding the yearly Federation of Canadian Municipalities meetings.

This year’s conference will be in Ottawa.

This year’s Cross Border Challenge on June 24th, a running race between Aulac; New Brunswick, and Amherst will have some new features.

Those will be a spaghetti supper the night before the race, and a Beer Garden on race night.

A schedule of events will be available soon at crossborderchallenge.com

Money raised goes to support youth programs, Little League Baseball; bursaries and the Cumberland Strong Kids YMCA Campaign.
