Dear residents,

After years of outdoor meetings in the summer months, the weather finally allowed us to hold our meeting in the Parc des Mésanges and meet the residents of the area. It’s always a pleasure to meet you in a different setting. However, broadcasting our summer outdoor meetings live does have its challenges, especially when it comes to capturing sound. At the park this week, we had to deal with the laughter and cheering of soccer players and the roar of numerous aircraft engines taking off over our heads. Internet users complaining about the sound quality of our online summer metting are welcome to join us next month at Parc des Éperviers.

For line-dancing enthusiasts, a new activity is being offered by the Repas partagés organizers during their summer break. This summer, the young at heart aged 50 and over are invited to gather under the roof of the Pavillon des Éperviers and dance together on Thursdays between 1 and 3 pm. This class is open to everyone, whatever your level. Our colleague Bruno is the line-dancing specialist and a regular participant in this lively activity.

On Saturday, July 12, we invite you to take part in Notre-Dame en famille, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Parc des Éperviers. This year, our community celebration will take on a carnival atmosphere, with family entertainment, circus performances, bumper cars and plenty of other activities to suit all tastes. According to the weather forecast, the weather will be warm and sunny. Bring your own bottle of water, which you can refill at the water station, and come and have a good time with us. For our part, we’re getting ready to cook a record number of hot dogs. We look forward to seeing you!

 

Your mayor,
