Award for Best New CED Project

The 1998 award for Best New CED Project was won by the Avon Heritage Society and the Avon Spirit Co-operative Limited for their collaborative effort to build the replica of a nineteenth century schooner and rebuild the local economy at the same time.

The two finalists for the award of Best New CED Project were Canso's Stan Rogers Festival and the Port Bickerton Area and Planning Association for their creation of the Nova Scotia Lighthouse Interpretive Centre.
