Board of directors

The Blackstone Lake Cottagers Association is a member-based, non-profit organization that is run by a Board of Directors who volunteer their time. Work that we do is inspired and made possible by organizations such as the Georgian Bay Association, Georgian Bay Land Trust, Georgian Bay Forever, Georgian Bay Biosphere, Federation of Ontario Cottagers' Associations and the Township of the Archipelago.
