It takes a village to raise a child
In the life of a child in Témiscamingue, many people play a part:
- The neighbor, who watches them head off to school each morning and babysits from time to time.
- The arena manager, who witnesses their first shaky glides on the ice and cheers on their progress.
- The local shopkeeper, always at her post, who knows every customer by name (including theirs).
Living in a small community creates an ecosystem where the spirit of ‘togetherness’ thrives, while still offering the privacy of one’s own home. Every year, volunteer committees and municipalities join forces to host annual celebrations: winter festivals, Christmas parades, community sliding hills, and friendly tournaments, not to mention our many festivals.
