Le Patro’s founder was presented with a special recognition on Sunday, amidst all the fun at the site’s annual St. Jean Baptiste celebrations.
Fr. Marc Frappier was given a certificate for 30 years of service to the community with his work at Le Patro by Pontiac MP Will Amos, as guests enjoyed a day of games and entertainment, complete with live music and a fireworks show to round it all out.
With all of Le Patro’s activities open, Patro Director Suzanne Dazé said their spot on the Ottawa River was quite popular all through the afternoon. Guests enjoyed the use of the mini golf course, the splash pad, various sports and much more as the party began at 1 p.m.
Seeing nearly 300 guests at one point, the only thing to dampen the spirits of the party-goers was a bit of late afternoon rain.
