National Volunteer Week, April 27 to May 3, 2025

Apr 24, 2025

The existence of CanBoat / NautiSavoir greatly depends on the remarkable commitment of dedicated volunteers. I would like to thank each and every one for their valuable contributions. Together, we must express our gratitude to these volunteers around us. Members get involved according to their availability, whether it’s a few hours or several hundred hours. Every minute counts, and every contribution is appreciated. We must also extend our gratitude to the volunteers who, although not members, sometimes participate in the life of our organization. It even appears that the employees of the national office contribute, going above and beyond their job descriptions when required. 

Thank you all

Lise Blais-Huot

CanBoat / NautiSavoir Chief Commander
