(Sherbrooke, May 16th, 2006) – For a 12th consecutive year, Super C, a division of METRO INC., is pleased to be taking part in the celebrations associated with the Fête du Lac des Nations, a grand summer event held in Sherbrooke.

“This annual event has become a tradition for Super C, and it’s very important to us! The celebrations are held in an enchanting atmosphere, in a family-oriented and friendly environment”, mentions Mr. Richard Beaubien, Vice-Operations of Operations, Super C. Delighted with this profitable association, Mr. Beaubien adds: “Our company is close to people and for us the Fête du Lac des Nations allows to reiterate our commitment to the community, to strengthen our presence and to share these joyful moments. The event brings us closer to our people, to our customers. It’s a special way of saying “THANK YOU” for their loyalty”.

Passport sale
As in the past, adult and teen passports can be purchased before and during the event at Super C. Purchasing a passport allows consumers to save a lot in comparison to the price of a day ticket.

Passports will be on sale as of May 17th at the following Super C stores: Sherbrooke Portland, Sherbrooke Belvédère and Fleurimont.

A wholly-owned division of METRO INC., Super C, with over 54 supermarkets, is a leader in the discount supermarkets segment in the province and employs more than 5,000 people in Québec.
