News - Intro image

It was on October 21, in Eco-Nature's location room, that a special evening highlighting the 25+1 years of foundation of Conseil régional de l'environnement (CRE) de Laval was held.

Several distinguished guests were there, notably: Mr Guy Garand, founder of CRE de Laval; Mr Stéphane Boyer, mayor of Laval; as well as municipal councillors Mr Alexandre Warnet, Mr Claude Larochelle, Mrs Flavia Alexandra Novac and Mrs Louise Lortie. Present members on the board of directors, numerous partners and members, some media representatives as well as many past administrators and employees joined the celebration, for a total of about 70 attendees.

 

For the occasion, CRE de Laval had the pleasure to officially present a brand new hisorical document. It includes, inter alia, the greatest accomplishments and services offered by the organization, a summary of the documents produced through the years as well as the mention of former administrators and employees that has contributed, each in their own way, to the development of CRE de Laval as we know it today. A hard copy of the document was provided to attendees.


Special thanks

First of all, a very special thanks to Mr Alexandre Warnet, municipal councillor in Laval-des-Rapides and associated member of the Executive Committee, for generously providing discretionary financial support for the promotion of the evening. We warmly thank, once again, each and every single person that made it to the event as well as all contributors, members and partners of CRE de Laval. This achievement could not have been done without you. We also thank every person that delivered a speech. Lastly, we thank Eco-Nature for the room rental, the caterer l'Échoppe des Fromages for the delicious appetizers and the photograph Marianna Georgiadis for the pictures immortalizing these unforgettable moments.

 

Our historical document was inspired by the one created by Conseil régional de l'environnement du Centre-du-Québec; we want to thank them for accepting that we take their idea and put our personal touch to it to make it our own.
