Members must be paid up to vote at the Annual Meeting of the Association. We look forward to seeing you on Sunday July 20 at 10 am.

If you care about the health of your lake, revegetation of its shoreline is essential. That is why, for a third year, the Association du Bassin versant du lac Heney Watershed (ABVLHW) invites you to come meet us at the Lac-Sainte-Marie Fête des voisins (Neighbors Day), on June 7th from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and at the opening of the Les saveurs de la Vallée Market in Gracefield, on June 13th between noon and 5 p.m.
We will offer you a sample of wildflower seeds that will help protect and beautify your shoreline, while contributing to the health of your lake. Our Association counts on your support in its work to protect the lakes in the Watershed (Lacs Heney, Desormeaux, à la Barbue, Vert, Noir and other small lakes) so that we, as well as future generations, can enjoy this magnificent nature that is offered to us.
