What is that "LdB"?
Lac du Bois is a summer camp where your children are
immersed in the Francophone culture. Here we speak in French,
we eat "à la Française," and we have fun in French; all is
done with a view to opening the youth on the French language as well as
the Francophone culture .
Who can come?
Villagers are children or teenagers ranging from 7
to 18 years old. Some of them are credit villagers and they will stay with
us for four weeks. The others are villagers who are here for two sessions
of two weeks. We welcome your children, whatever their French level, and
we do our best in a view to making possible that everyone can improve
their skills.
When?
Each summer, Lac du Bois Bemidji holds two credit
sessions, for two weeks sessions, and one week session which is called "Exploration Session"
for the youngest villagers. Do not hesitate to visit Concordia's site if
you need more details.
