Géraldine Vernier lives in Chartres but she is an OPJ police crossing guard at the Rambouillet police station (Yvelines). As such, during each hunt organized in the forest of Rambouillet [elles sont autorisées chaque mardi et chaque samedi, NDLR], she is the witness of tensions, sometimes very violent, between pros and anti-venery. “They often come to blows. “
In Rambouillet, hunts under high tension: “We have never seen such confrontations”
“I am a peace officer, summarizes Geraldine Vernier, it is precisely to try to appease the spirits that a fortnight ago, I founded the association Tables d’avenir, which aims to discuss divisive and sensitive themes such as
hunting with hounds. “
“The objective is to make the two parties move on neutral ground. It’s good to fight for ideas, but with words. “

And it is under the aegis of this association that it is organizing the first conference of its kind, Saturday, June 19, at the Maison du Saumon, in Chartres. “The objective is to get the two parties to move on neutral ground,” explains Geraldine Vernier. It’s good to fight for ideas, but with words. “

This conference, which will last all day, will be punctuated by four round tables, each time hosted by two or three speakers. Among them will be notably Antoine Gallon, communications director of the Société de vénerie; Michel Camboulives, co-founder of the Ava Rambouillet collective; or Anny Poursinoff, former member of the Yvelines.
Face-to-face and remote on Facebook live
To comply with health measures, this conference will only be able to accommodate around ten people face-to-face. “But all the debates can be followed remotely on our Facebook live”, underlines Geraldine Vernier.
