Less than a month before the 26th edition of the Défi sportif! The hive is buzzing with activity to, again this year, offer quality competition to some 3,000 athletes coming from fifteen countries or so to dazzle Montrealers with breathtaking performances.
Let us remind everyone that the smooth running of the Défi sportif depends on a huge team of no less than 900 volunteers. Now, to ensure the training of all those people, the organisation will hold a general meeting entirely devoted to them. All volunteers are thus urged to gather in the cafeteria at Collège de Maisonneuve, this Saturday, April 4 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
On the agenda: brief introduction of AlterGo, unveiling of the programme of the 26th Défi sportif, short presentations of the different areas, as well as testimonials by spokesperson Jean-Marie Lapointe, athletes and experienced volunteers. Handidactis will also be offering awareness exercises. The day will end with training workshops specifically designed to suit the needs of each department.
