Borough Writing Contest –
Borough of Lennoxville
Once again this year, the Ville de Sherbrooke’s
boroughs have joined forces to hold the
Borough Writing Contest. The second edition
of this contest will feature historical figures.
Gertrude Scott and Amédée Beaudoin are the
characters who have been selected for your
borough.
Everyone is invited to dream up adventures
for them. Tell us part of their stories or create
different lives for them! Take them into the
future or back in time; introduce them to
your hometown! Participants have full rein,
as long as one—and only one—of these
characters is the focus of your composition.
So be careful—write about only one of the
characters!
This competition is open to the entire
population, regardless of age. A copy of the
rules is attached. Please tell your students
about this contest. One prize of $1000 will
be awarded in each borough. What a great
incentive to let one’s imagination run wild on
paper!
Amédée Beaudoin
Amédée Beaudoin, who everyone knew
as “Médée” brightened up the Town
of Lennoxville by putting in colourful
flowerbeds in front of the Town Hall and
all of the churches. A horticulturist by trade,
he worked at the Lennoxville Experimental
Farm for 20 years, and, after that, at the
Lennoxville Golf Club. In 1947, he became
the Town Hall caretaker and lived in an
apartment there up until his death. It was
“Médée” who responded to emergency calls
for police and firefighters and who sounded
the siren at noon.
Community Gardens
A good option for next season?
There are two types of communal gardens in
the Sherbrooke area: community gardens and
collective gardens.
A community garden is a garden that is
divided into several individual plots where
each person or family tends to their plot and
harvests its vegetables.
A collective garden is a garden that is not
divided into plots where the cultivation and
decisions are carried out communally. The
harvest is divided equally among participants.
In Sherbrooke, the community and
collective gardens are administered by the
boroughs. When these gardens are set up,
the Environment Division conducts an
environmental soil analysis at the borough’s
request.

Information on the historical figures:
Gertrude Scott
Gertrude Scott was very involved in the
community. In 1932, she became the first
female president of the Lennoxville Curling
Club, and she remained in this position for
several years. In addition, the Lennoxville
United Church has a room named after her.

The accumulation of these requests could
result in improving the priority to the cases.
For example: If a car is speeding and spinning
all over town, everybody reporting the same
licence plate will give police more grounds to
take action against the offender.

LENNOXVILLE DAY CAMP
SUMMARY
As summer comes to an end, so does another
season of the Lennoxville Day Camp. We
welcomed 178 children this year for seven
weeks of fun! The day camp is a completely
bilingual camp that strives to build an
enriching enviornment for the children who
attend it.
There was nearly a perfect split with 55%
of children coming from English-speaking
families, and 45% from French-speaking
families. Most children who register for day
camp can already speak both languages. The
ability for children to foster diverse language
skills is one of the qualities that makes the
Lennoxville Day Camp a unique experience.
The day camp also gives families from a small
town the chance to come together throughout
the summer, getting to know other families
with similiar interests. Lennoxville residents
take advantage of this great opportunity,
making up 59% of the families registered,
while the remaining 41% is made up of
Sherbrooke and non-Sherbrooke residents.
We have seen new initatives this summer
at day camp, including including two trips
and visits from several guests who provided
something for everyone. There was never
a dull moment! Each summer we strive to
provide exciting adventures for the children,
which will benefit them in many ways.
The Lennoxville Day Camp looks forward to
seeing many new and familiar faces in 2015.

The ‘MissionnAires
D’AFriQue’ brooke
The 3 km brook is sourced from
Thomas-Woodward road and RFSTED area.
It drains a farm from Thomas-Woodward
Road and the Missionnaires d’Afrique’s
(Pères Blancs) property. It follows the north
side of Cardinal-Lavigerie Street and flows
into St. Francis River in front of Île Marie.
Before 1945, the section located between
the Missionaries of Africa’s property and St.
Francis Street was straightened and a small
pond is now maintained within the brook.
The section located between St. Francis
Street and St. Francis River was for the most
part transformed for agricultural purposes
and gravel pits. In fact, the natural mouth was
located further north of its current position, it
used to be meet the Longpré creek. Between
1972 and 1978, the mouth was moved to its
present position between two gravel pits.
The name of the brook is not yet officialized
by the Toponimy commission of Québec,
but the Ville de Sherbrooke recently put in
a request to ensure that they are aware that
the Missionaries of Africa have been in
Lennoxville for 60 years.
2006 it was renamed Cardinal-Lavigerie. The
Lavigerie House is used as a Training Centre
for those interested in the Brotherhood and
aspiring to work in Africa. Workshops were
built at the back of the main building, and
from 1958 to 1966, the establishment was
affiliated with the Institute of Technology of
Sherbrooke, located on Camirand Street. The
youth trained for three years and also work
to develop the property. They created paths,
planted thousands of trees and, in 1959-1960,
they dug a pond with the water supplied by the
creek that drains the property. The brother’s
house and scolasticate closed in 1969-1970
and the establishment became a retirement
and nursing home with 48 rooms for the aging
Brotherhood, where they are able to receive
nursing care. From 1965 to 2012, the Oblates
of Bethany were responsible for servicing
and maintaining the establishment, but they
had to leave due to the lack of relief. Since
then, the task has been delegated to layman
supervision with the help of the Antonine
Sisters of Mary.

A COMMUNITY ESTABLISHED IN
LENNOXVILLE FOR 60 YEARS
Missionaries of Africa were founded in
Algiers in 1868 by Cardinal Lavigerie.
They arrived in North America in 1901 with
their first house in Quebec. In the U.S.A.
since 1929, the community creates their
province of Canada in 1943. Interested in the
possibility of the technical training available
in Sherbrooke, in 1953, they purchased a
160-acre piece of land on the east side of
the Quebec Central Railway in Lennoxville
from Joseph Antoine Patenaude, a Montreal
resident. This lot is located on a rocky hillside
of uncultivated, fallow land, nicknamed
Crows’ Hill. Joseph Antoine Patenaude had
aquired the land from the Beattie family the
year before. In 1955-1956, the Missionaries
of Africa built the Lavigerie House, with the
Eugène Marcoux Inc. company The access
road to the house was called Lavigerie, the
founder of the community’s name, and in
