15 000 $ en prix pour la 20 e édition...

chantal.quirion@eap.on.ca L EFAIVRE

Le Club Lions de Lefaivre a souligné en grand le 20 e anniversaire de son Tournoi d’Achigan, dimanche dernier. Le montant des bourses remis aux parti- cipants a grimpé de 5000 $, passant de 10 000 $ à 15 000 $ pour cette occasion. Non seulement heureux de passer une magnifi- que journée, plusieurs d’entre eux sont repartis avec des récompenses fort intéres- santes, sans parler des heureux gagnants des tirages. Les deux prix en jeu étaient pour le moins attrayants, soit une chaloupe Princecraft avec remorque et un moteur. Un nombre record de 115 équipes étaient inscrites,alorsqu’enmoyenneonencompte un peu plus de cent. Encore une fois, les gens provenaient non seulement de la ré- gion mais d’un peu partout au Québec et même des États-Unis. Exceptionnellement, on avait décerné une présidence d’honneur. Le très célèbre

Photos: Chantal Quirion Des organisateurs des premières éditions, dont le premier président Yves Lacombe (2e à partir de la droite), sont montés sur l’estrade, racontant quelques anecdotes parmi les nombreuses histoires de pêche qui se sont déroulées depuis 20 ans.

Le président du tournoi, Marc Jespers, comme le président du Club Lions de Lefaivre, Martin Bourgeois, étaient ravis. En plus, Dame Nature a coopéré, ce qui n’avait pas été le cas l’an dernier. Pendant la journée, les organisateurs des premières éditions, dont le premier président Yves Lacombe, sont montés sur l’estrade pour recevoir une bonne main d’applaudissement. Ce dernier a bien fait rire le public en disant qu’à l’époque, on ne savait même pas encore ce qu’était un achigan, à Lefaivre. Les choses ont bien évolué depuis, mais une constante de- meure, la communauté semobilise toujours autant pour l’événement. De nombreux bénévoles ont apporté leur aide aux mem- bres Lions pour la tenue de l’activité. Les commanditaires répondent toujours géné- reusement et cette année particulièrement, ils ont été nombreux à avoir fait des dons substantiels. Les commanditaires majeurs, Benson Autoparts, Desjardins, Princecraft par le biais de Rockland Marine et Can-Am par le biais de Quesnel RV, ont eu leur logo sur les casquettes commandées pour cette édition spéciale. Avant la remise des prix, une minute de silence a été observée en mémoire de Louis Potvin, décédé subitement le 20 mai der- nier, âgé à peine de 45 ans. Il était un fidèle participant du tournoi. Les grands vainqueurs Tony de Boer et John Horton ont récolté la première place assortie d’une bourse de 5000 $ avec une prise de 21,88 lb. En 2 e place, Eric Danis et Éric Lamarche ont glané 2300 $ pour leur pêche de 20,86 lb. Ils ont aussi obtenu le prix du plus gros poisson (6,19 lb) récompensé par 1200 $. Denis Champagne et Guy Larocque se sont classés en 3 e pour une bourse de 1750 $. Leur prise était de 19,25 lb. En tout, 15 000 $ ont été décernés pour les meilleures prises.

Ce faisant, l’animateur en a profité pour faire quelques entrevues. Il y aura donc un reportage sur le tournoi qui profite ainsi d’une tribune exceptionnelle.

Réal Massé, propriétaire de la pourvoirie qui porte son nom, à St-Zénon, avait ac- cepté cette invitation. C’est lui par ailleurs qui a doté cette 20 e édition du moteur tant convoité. Malheureusement, à quelques jours du tournoi, M. Massé a dû subir une intervention au genou, rendant les dépla- cements difficiles. Il a toutefois demandé à

Vidéotron Hawkesbury views value in energy efficiency.

Éric Lamarche de Buckingham et Éric Danis de Lefaivre se sont classés bon deuxième ce qui leur a valu la bourse de 2300 $ pour leur pêche de 20,86 lb. Ils ont aussi obtenu le prix du plus gros poisson (6,19 lb) récompensé par 1200 $. Fidèles participants, ils se classent trégulièrement dans les premiers rangs. Ils sont entourés du trésorier du Club Lions de Lefaivre Claude Yelle et du président du tournoi, Marc Jespers.

Tony de Boer et John Horton ont récolté la première place assortie d’une bourse de 5000 $ avec une prise totale de 21,88 lb. Ému, M. de Boer (au centre) a exprimé son regret d'avoir fait ce tournoi sans son coéquipier habituel, Louis Potvin décédé il y a quelques mois. Tous les deux étaient de grands habitués. Photos: C.

Vidéotron Hawkesbury sets an example for environmental leadership in the community through its commitment to energy efficiency. The video rental store invested $2,200 in upgrading its lighting and received over $5,500 in incentives from the Small Business Lighting program. The saveONenergy Small Business Lighting program offers up to $1,000 worth of free lighting upgrades for small businesses. Plus, it gives access to further incentives. The program includes a lighting audit and free installation of recommended upgrades that will reduce electricity use. The retrofit will reduce its annual electricity consumption by 32,800 kWh — enough to power an average home for three and a half years. Hydro Hawkesbury recognizes Vidéotron Hawkesbury for its conservation leadership as the newest member of the Companies for Conservation honour roll.
