We are there...

We are there... We can't wait to see all of you at the Léger / Légère / Legé / Trahan reunion. You can still register for the reunion; you simply need to present yourself at the reunion. On the 11th, we are Marguerite Bourgeois school in Caraquet and on the 12th, we are at Louis Mailloux High School also in Caraquet.

Happy congress to all.

Fill-Out Those Registration Forms!

We are no longer offering the possibility of pre-registering for the family reunion and sending in the form by mail, as we don't want to risk not receiving mailed forms in time for the reunion! No worries though, as you can still download the form from the link on the left of the screen and complete it before making the trip to Caraquet. Then, you'll simply present your completed form at the registration desk on either the 11th or 12th of August and one of our volunteers will be more than happy to get everything done for you.

Thank you Barachois !!!

The May 31st public meeting in the historical church in Barachois can be qualified as a tremendous success. Gilles Pinet and Luc Légère, president and vice president of the Association des Léger/Légère d’Acadie Inc., presented the schedule of activities that are planned during the Leger/Legere family reunion during the Acadian World Congress in 2009. We estimate that about 25 people attended the public meeting. The participants were very enthusiastic with the idea of this reunion.

Thank you all for participating.
