Do not put the Festival Committee in danger
Valentin Bonnet regretted the lack of participants and volunteers at the assembly. If the current team has carried out, for three years, a wonderful job with the praise of the natives where the participants were numerous and the atmosphere appreciated. “You have to know how to hand overdeclared the president. This lack of interest in the association endangers its sustainability.”
