Dubreuilville's celebrating the completion of renovations to its arena by renaming the facility in honour of a local hero.
Mayor Beverly Nantel says the Township chose to recognize the community contributions and other efforts of Eddy Lefrancois, a Dubreuilville ALS activist who passed away earlier this year, with the dedication coming after work on the arena, supported by $150,000 from the Ontario Trillium Fund.
A release from the Township of Dubreuilville says the newly dubbed "Eddy K. Lefrancois Recreation Centre" is "ground zero for fostering an active lifestyle for young people growing up in a rural, isolated Francophone community".
