Alain Potvin and Thomas Blais named Fundraising Campaign Co-Chairs

ROCKLAND – September 25, 2006 – The City of Clarence-Rockland is proud to announce that the Recreational and Cultural Complex Fundraising Campaign will be co-chaired by Mr. Alain Potvin and Mr. Thomas Blais.  With the theme Building the heart of our community, this campaign is sure to be very positive and motivating for everybody involved in this great adventure.

“I am thrilled by Mr. Potvin’s and Mr. Blais’ nominations as Fundraising Campaign Co-Chairs.  Mr. Potvin’s reputation as businessman and biggest employer of the City is well-known.  For his part, Mr. Blais has been active for many years in the Desjardins cooperative movement, while sitting on important provincial committees and he is a great advantage for our project”, mentioned Richard Lalonde, Mayor of the City of Clarence-Rockland. 

Mr. Potvin and Mr. Blais will be supported by a group of citizens coming from all over the municipality chosen for their respective expertise.

These people are :
Communication Committee: Julie Chartrand, Chantal Lalonde, Anne Lizotte, Josée Quenneville
Major Donations Division: Stéphane Langlois, Alain Bernard, Bruce Geerts, Pierre Huot, Roxanne Chénier, Josée Quenneville
Community Campaign: Julie Brazeau, Philippe Goudreau, Fern Payer (other people will join this committee soon)
Treasurer: Yves Lalonde

The members of these committees are all persuaded to reach the campaign’s objective of $4 million dollars.  Already, some people have been contacted and we will communicate positive results shortly.

Finally, the process to find a general contractor is already in motion and the project leads are confidant that we will proceed with the official sod turning ceremony in early 2007.
