If Construction Pierre Lalande offers so many activities to the members of its organization, it is above all to improve the feeling of belonging, at a time when labor is scarce.

Thousands of dollars in prizes are also drawn during these gatherings, which also serve to look back on the good things, and the bad things, of the year.
