What do we do with your contribution?

Funds raised through membership fees are reinvested in the protection of the richness of the river. These contributions give back to the community and allow us to fulfill our mission. We are proud to enabling people from here and from elsewhere to enjoy nature so close to the town La Baie.

What are the benefits of membership?

We want to surround ourselves with citizens who share our interests and who want to develop the region with us. Your membership is valid for one year. You will have the right to attend and vote at the Annual General Meeting, and can apply to sit on the board of directors or on one of the CNRM committees

Get involved in the field

Since 2018, we have introduced benefits for members wishing to get involved as a guard, guide or patroller. As a volunteer member, you will have the possibility of obtaining free fishing days or either a winter cross-country ski passport or snowshoe passeport in exchange for your time.

_{*Note that the number of guards, guides and patrollers will be predetermined by the board of directors and that a schedule will be established to ensure consistency within the services.}
