LEWISTON — Mitch Thomas, executive director at the Gendron Franco Center, has announced the annual maple sugar day-trip to Lac-Mégantic, Québec, has been rescheduled to Sunday, April 30; the original date was canceled because of the April 1 snow storm. The public is invited to join those already signed up for the 12-hour tour.
“This is a great trip for all ages, and families are always encouraged to attend” said Thomas. Departure by bus from the Gendron Franco Center, 46 Cedar St., will be at 6:45 A.M. Coffee and breakfast snacks will be offered, starting at 6:15 a.m., and return time is expected to be by 6:45 p.m. the same day. There will be brief stops to tour the newly completed Lac-Mégantic Train Disaster Memorial and for shopping in the village.
The cost of the trip, which includes transportation, the noon-time, home-cooked feast, live local music at the Cabane à Sucre and all-day parking at the Center, is $62 per person. A valid passport is needed for travel to Canada.
To reserve and pay for a spot on the trip, visit or call the Franco Center (783-1585) or email boxoffice@francocenter.org.
