What is ‘What’s Up East Hants’?
What’s Up East Hants is a brand-new magazine brought to you by a small group of mighty volunteers and supporters, of which we are hoping to grow, issue after issue. This magazine has been built from the ground-up by East Hants residents. What’s Up East Hants is a registered non-profit organization, with minimal overhead and maximum benefit to East Hants. The goal of the What’s Up East Hants magazine is to bring the communities of East Hants together, one unified East Hants: business and services available right here in East Hants, encouragement to support local, residents’ voices heard by other residents of East Hants.
Please note: What’s Up East Hants is NOT IN ANY WAY affiliated with the Municipal Government of East Hants. All facets of this community publication, What’s Up East Hants, are operated independent of East Hants Regional Municipality.

What’s Up East Hants was started by a group of East Hants residents and business owners, wanting to see this connection happen. (See Director Profiles for Angela Sanford, Bob Bona, Rhonda Steeves, Julie Benoit, Brenda Carmichael, and Wayne Garden).
