Making Noise for REACH School - May 25 Dance

This year's big REACH School fundraising dance will be held in the spring as usual, but this year's event will have a few exciting changes.

The dance will be held May 25 at Chambly Academy in St. Lambert. The live rock and roll band, which includes one of the parents from REACH School, will be "the Noise".

There will be an exceptional range of door prizes and draws, a full evening of great entertainment and exhibits to provide a glimpse of some of what an education at REACH entails on a daily basis, all presented in a rock 'n' roll theme.

Please contact governing board or organizing committee members for tickets.

Website: "My Family in the Agglomeration of Longueuil!"

Not sure exactly what the purpose of this website is. Not even sure either whether I would like my family to have anything to do with an "agglomeration" :)... but, a brief look at the site may be relevant for readers of this blog.

Ma famille dans l'agglomération de Longueuil

It appears to be a collection of listings, tips and testimonials offered in French only. It is not complete, nor reliable, although may be useful as a general orientation for some people.

For example, if you manage to find your way to click on "Liste des camps de jour arrondissements Saint-Hubert et Greenfield Park", it brings you to a pdf called: "Flash Loisir" (février), which has no information about day camps in it.

We are going to get in touch with these people to see if they would like to include some of our listings.
