Chicoutimi

Picturesque Chicoutimi lies on the banks of Lac-Saint-Jean in the region of the Saguenay. The Saguenay is a vast territory of wild, visually stunning landscapes; of large lakes, meandering rivers, towering mountains and a fjord carved out of a glacial valley.

In August of 2005 Kiwanians through out Eastern Canada and the Caribbean flew, motored, trained or biked to this beautiful town located in the heart of French Québec.

In addition to the Kiwanis learning opportunities and good comradeship that was experienced by all the Lieutenant Governor's in the 2004–2005 class were in for some particularly spectacular treats.

Our adventure began with a boat journey up the Saguenay. Here we saw the sheer rock cliffs of the great fiord.

Lieutenant Governor Gary enjoys the trip

Our eventual destination was la Baie; home of best restaurant in all of the Saguenay.

Host Lieutenant Governor, Marcel Bouchard owns the magnificent boutique Inn and restaurant: Auberge des 21

For the past 13 years this Inn has grown to become renown amongst the Gourmet Relays of Québec. Marcel varies his menu each week to satisfy and surprise his customers. We were not disappointed.
