The Rendez-vous de la Baie is very pleased to announce that the www.claretownship.ca<\/strong> is the sponsor of the month for October 2016<\/strong>. Their generous contribution provides everyone with free access to the Acadian Interpretive Centre museum halls.<\/p>\n We are very pleased to sponsor admission to the \u2018Acadian Interpretive Centre\u2019 for the month of October 2016. The Centre is a great introduction to the history of Baie-Sainte-Marie (Clare) and pays tribute to the fortitude and ingenuity of the first settlers to arrive on its shores in 1768. The Centre also beautifully showcases the arts and culture which have evolved at Baie-Sainte-Marie since those early days.<\/p>\n I feel my generation is the bridge between the old and the new; by that I mean we are the last generation in Clare to have experienced a way of life that has all but disappeared. We developed a website to record and preserve the history of Clare for genealogists and researchers in particular, but also for anyone interested in the history of our beautiful Baie-Sainte-Marie, its founding families and their descendants. In Phase One, we photographed every grave-marker in the Catholic cemeteries in Clare and developed a fully searchable grave-marker database; this is currently the backbone of our website. We also added a brief history of the churches and parishes at Baie-Sainte-Marie. <\/p>\n The next module we added was a brief overview of Shipbuilding in Clare, authored by Delb\u00e9 Comeau. We also worked with Old Photos of Clare to bring you an old photos display at the Rendez-Vous and a rotating slide show in the Acadian Interpretive Centre.<\/p>\n The next module for our website will focus on the founding families of Baie-Sainte-Marie, based on the April 2015 Stephen White lecture at the Centre Acadien and my research into significant published works. Because we plan to keep adding material to our website, check us out periodically at http:\/\/claretownship.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n – Marcelle Comeau<\/p>\n Access to the Acadian Interpretive Centre (Museum) at Rendez-vous de la Baie is now free of charge<\/em>.
