The Nature Day and Fishing Festival will take place on Saturday, June 8, 2024 from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., at Parc de la Rivière (ball field).
The municipalities of Saint-Esprit and Saint-Roch-Ouest warmly invite you to come and have fun with us for this beautiful day!
The objective of the nature day is to offer the citizens of Saint-Esprit a good time with their families and to come and discover organizations in the region linked to nature, fishing and eco-responsibility.
The fishing festival has existed in Saint-Esprit since 2009 while the Green Day has existed since 2014. Two years ago, the municipality decided to combine the two events on the same day in order to celebrate the NATURE DAY.
