The objects of the society are to promote the appreciation of Bluegrass music, develop local musicanship in the field of bluegrass, establish contacts between muscians of all levels, showcase local bluegrass muscians, fund professional bluegrass band appearances, create social gatherings for all association members and their guests through potlucks,  camp-outs and jam sessions.
Another Object of the association was to establish the "Vernon J Robicheau Memorial Fund". The memorial fund helps young aspiring musicians by offering music lessons for acoustic instruments. The 1st memorial concert was held on October 12, 1997 and the first set of music lessons began in October, 1998.   These lessons are held in Meteghan and still going strong, twice a year with our new instructor, Gary Greene.
