On Saturday, July 2, as planned, and despite about fifteen defections due to COVID, the “les Amis de La Martinerie” cookout brought together, at La Martinerie, some 60 people.

With the unexpected, but greatly appreciated, visit of Gil Avérous, president of Châteauroux Métropole, during the aperitif, our members shared an excellent meal prepared by Martial and Antoine.

A beautiful day which prefigures our next outdoor event scheduled for Saturday, September 3 at the pond of Corlay; a pond kindly loaned by Pierre-Antoine DENIS, the new president of the UNC section of Châteauroux Métropole.

A big thank you to all the volunteers who worked hard to make that day memorable.
