WHAT IS THE PFBHA?
The PFBHA was formed in 1977 for the purpose of purchasing and maintaining what is known as Port Franks Beach. The PFBHA, through donations from concerned and dedicated Port Frank Residents raised the money to purchase the beach. Coincidental with the property purchase, the Association formed a Corporation and Bylaws to provide governance. The PFBHA pays property taxes on the land, purchases insurance and pays for the maintenance of the property.
​
The PFBHA is a volunteer based, non-profit organization managed by a Board of Directors that are selected from and by the members of the association. Two directors represent each of the five areas in Port Franks including: Huron Sands, Old Ausable, Port Franks Area, Richmond Park and Windsor Park. The ten Board of Directors administer the affairs of the Corporation.
Our members that serve on the Board of Directors and Committees are all volunteers who invest a lot of their time, energy and skills to ensure that the PFBHA is successful in carrying out its mission.
