WOMEN HELPING WOMEN – The second annual Salon de la Femme (Ladies Night), organized by Claudee Galipeau and Ashley Nadeau from L'EntourElle once again boasted a sold out show, March 30 at the Pontiac Conference Center in Fort-Coulonge; the $2,900 raised from the event was given to L'EntourElle, a local women's shelter.
     With over 250 people in attendance, the evening featured fifteen vendor booths, numerous draws, and a reappearance from comedian Genevieve Gagnon. Male servers, including Andre Fortin, Pontiac MNA, local firefighters, and Gaston Allard, Mayor of Fort-Coulonge, distributed hors d'oeuvres to the crowd, who also enjoyed a fashion show from Le Depot and Jolie Folie.
    Mélika Mousseau, a local high school student, recited a poem (slam) about domestic violence and a recognition award was given to Roxanne Ladouceur to honour her many contributions to the community over the years, including her volunteer work for L'EntourElle, providing support to those with drug and alcohol dependencies.   


An abundance of deer in the Pontiac's fields has been a familiar sight in recent weeks; some fields with over 30 at a time. According to André Dumont, a biologist for the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs' Outaouais division, this is completely normal for this time of year; it's a critical time for deer as they take to the fields after the winter to forage for corn, soya beans, and hay leftovers when the snow melts. “We are currently doing an inventory around the Pontiac (road count) to determine how many fawns (now about 10 months old) have survived their first winter. Some evenings I can count up to 400 deer. Drive with caution,” he said.
