Title
Miramichi Crime Stoppers
Description
On March 11, 1987, an organizational meeting was held at the Town Hall in Newcastle, N.B. Thirty community members and three police coordinators attended the meeting. The first meeting of the Miramichi Crime Stoppers was held March 30, 1987. The executive consisted of President, Steve Lowery; Treasurer, Harold Parlee; and Secretary, David Foley. Nineteen board members were present.
In 1989, in response to public demand, the Miramichi Crime Stoppers established a "Special Appeals Fund" in light of recent violent crimes on the Miramichi. A goal of $25,000 was set on October 18, 1989.
Through tremendous response from local businesses, unions, and the public, the sum of $78,000 was raised in less than a month for the special fund.
