The Minster Civic Association
The Minster Civic Association is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to promote Minster and the vicinity, create and maintain high community standards, develop opportunity for commercial, industrial and agricultural endeavor, and to effect constructive cooperation for the benefit of all citizens. In the last decade, the Minster Civic Association has donated over $120,000 to various organizations and charities.
A few of the many organizations supported by the Minster Civic Association include:
The Minster Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts
Auglaize/Mercer YMCA
Minster Fire Department
Minster Life Squad
Francis J. Stallo Memorial Library
Minster High School Scholarship Fund
Minster Renaissance Program
Minster Band Boosters.
Donated funds come largely from our membership dues and various fund raising events throughout the year such as the Minster Oktoberfest, Summer Golf Outing, the Minster Civic Dinner and Dance, and soon-to-be first annual Bock and Rock Beer Tasting Experience.
The Minster Civic Association has also been active in creating a Minster "Brand" that will symbolize the charitable efforts of all of the great people and organizations that make Minster "A Great Community".
We thank you for past and continued support of our organization!
