Meet Manon M.


By Isabelle Privé


The members of Team Kili-2012 like to be on the go. One of them is Manon Marleau.

Though discreet, Manon is one of the pillars of our organisation. A founder of the project and a team player, she likes the outdoors, challenges and all-out physical activity. If something needs organizing, Manon's the perfect person to get on the team.
As well as dealing with the logistics for Team Kili-2012, Manon is a member of the SCD social club. You'll often see her outside the cafeteria, giving out tickets for shows or taking inscriptions for different activities. That's as well as working out during her lunch hour.

As if that weren't enough, she never misses an opportunity to get out of the city for a excursion in the mountains or for a bike ride, a kayak trip or other outdoor activity. She even participated in the Tour de l'Ile 2011.
Manon is extremely active, full of energy and always ready for an adventure. In other words, a perfect candidate for Kilimanjaro.

The Joy of Giving...

By Isabelle Privé

Thanks to the generosity of the clients, grocery packing at Maxi's in Laprairie allowed us to make just over $1000! Out of this amount, we were delighted to make a donation of $102 to the President's Choice Foundation.

Once again, we'd like to thank the Laprairie Maxi employees for their kindness and their welcome, especially Mme Clémence Lapierre who  went out of her way to offer us supplementary dates.
                                                     See you again in September!

Congratulations to the Team Kili-2012 members who managed to pack up all the orders without squashing a single loaf of bread......

It's nice to be noticed by our employer!

By Isabelle Privé

 
Unexpected recognition of our project appeared recently in the form of a comic strip on the office Intranet.

The chap climbing the stairs gets to the top only to be faced with the announcement that 25 SCD employees are going to climb Kilimanjaro in 2012.

We'll have to climb an awful lot of stairs to get us in shape for such a feat!

Our thanks to the authors of the weekly cartoon on the SCD Intranet. It's most encouraging to know that they believe in our project!
