the children must throw large dices.<br />

A one-hour show with games.<br />

While lounging about on a cloud on a cold December day, the Spirit of Christmas has an intense attack of hiccups that lifts him<br />

up in the air. Jostled violently, he looses his balance and falls to Earth. A peasant couple offers him refuge and, to thank them, the<br />

Spirit of Christmas grants them three wishes. A jealous neighbour also demands three wishes. Will he get what he is wishing for?<br />

Reiki workshop with Anne-Marie Dubois<br />

At the Community Centre - 1301 Rue du bois<br />

Reiki is an alternative medical practice. It is a natural<br />

method of self-healing. We first receive it for ourselves; then,<br />

depending on our level of commitment, we can share it with<br />

others. In Japanese, Reiki means energy and unconditional<br />

love. Through Reiki, we become connected to a superior<br />

energy: God (for those who believe), creator, supreme being,<br />

universe, cosmos, source. Reiki is administered through hand<br />

placements over the subject’s clothing. It brings harmony to<br />

the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being.<br />

positive thinking… all allow us to stand back, find clarity<br />

your health and release stress. Can also relieve asthma,<br />

Activities<br />

What is Acrobatic Gymnastics?<br />

Acrobatics - Dance - Tumbling - Trampoline<br />

This discipline requires courage and stamina, while demanding<br />

flexibility and skill. Acrobatic Gymnastics or Acrosport, favours body<br />

control in various positions, both on the ground and in the air. For<br />

this reason the sport is welcomed and often included in the training<br />

program of pilots, cosmonauts and parachutists. The exercises are<br />

performed as a team of 2, 3, 4 and must include a combination of<br />

choreography, collective acrobatic elements such as holds, throws,<br />

catches as well as individual acrobatic elements performed on the<br />

floor, all in perfect synchronisation. Very entertaining to watch, this<br />

sport is being made especially popular by a well known Montreal<br />

circus company!<br />

Who is Les Gymnastes de L’Ile?<br />

Les Gymnastes de L'Ile offers all of the above and more! Our club<br />

is a dynamic, educational, social and a sports orientated non-profit<br />

association. We thrive on teamwork, self-confidence, trust and<br />

respect.<br />

Our club is affiliated to the Quebec Gymnastics Federation, competing<br />

in tumbling, mini-double trampoline, and Olympic trampoline. 2010<br />

has been a remarkable year with many medals collected at regional,<br />

provincial, and national competitions.!<br />

Our Coaches are world-class Acrobatics experts. Our Athletes have<br />

safety, fun and continuous improvement! Come join our team,<br />

Looking to enjoy an outdoor summer activity with your dog?<br />

Agility is what you need! It is a sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course<br />

in a race for both time and accuracy. Agility is an activity for anyone, no matter what age.<br />

An 8-week outdoor introductory class starting in May 2011 and<br />

another one in July 2011.<br />

Registrations begin in March 2011.<br />

Don’t hesitate to contact us now, and we will send you the forms as<br />

soon as available, in spring.<br />

Dogs must be non-aggressive, socialized, with basic obedience<br />

skills. They are introduced to the agility equipment in a non-<br />

stressful atmosphere. Remember, agility is all about having fun<br />

with your dog.<br />

You are also invited to visit us at the training grounds on any weekday evening beginning in May 2011.<br />

LES FORESTIERS<br />

Organisation<br />

EQUESTRIAN CLUB<br />

We wish to take the opportunity provided by the Liaisons, <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong>’s municipal bulletin, to thank the Town for opening trail<br />

no. 60, a public trail that goes from Chemin <strong>Saint</strong>e-Angélique to Montée <strong>Saint</strong>-Robert.<br />

Its equestrian heritage lends the Town of <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong> its unique charm. No other town in North America has such a large<br />

and diversified equestrian community, with many small horse farms, which represents a major economic engine.<br />

According to the RCM’s urban development plan reviewed in 2004, there are about 5,000 horses in our area. This represents<br />

economic repercussions of approximately 30 million dollars and 850 permanent jobs.<br />

LES FORESTIERS EQUESTRIAN CLUB is the most important equestrian club in Quebec. Its members are mainly <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong> residents<br />

(approximately 60%). In addition to stable owners, there are numerous riders who board their horses in <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong>; most<br />

of them live in the area but others come from Ontario, Montreal and places in between and even as far as the South Shore. Their<br />

love for horses brings a great many riders to <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong>.<br />

LES FORESTIERS EQUESTRIAN CLUB offers day passes to riders from all over Quebec who are attracted to our area’s<br />

wonderful trails. Located for the most part in <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong>, our trails cover approximately 250 km. We owe these great trails<br />

to the Town of <strong>Saint</strong>-<strong>Lazare</strong> and to the many land owners who have granted us an exclusive right-of-way. The various trails<br />

enable us to reach La Pinière, the main recreational park, from the north, south, east and west.<br />

LES FORESTIERS EQUESTRIAN CLUB has a one-of-a-kind equestrian patrol to keep trails safe for riders as well as a group of<br />

volunteers responsible for maintaining the trails.<br />

For additional information, please contact LES FORESTIERS EQUESTRIAN CLUB at 514-446-3312.<br />
