Penelope Barrette et son groupe ont fait une présentation réussie afin d’obtenir le soutien de la Cité de Clarence-Rockland pour la mise en place de la première course en DUO dans la ville, dans le cadre du Festival de la rivière des Outaouais 2020. La course en DUO est un sport qui implique une équipe de deux personnes travaillant ensemble, dont l’un des membres est en fauteuil roulant. Une partie de l’objectif de ce sport est de promouvoir l’engagement communautaire, la forme physique et les activités sportives récréatives pour les personnes ayant des problèmes de mobilité. —photo Gregg Chamberlain
