Janine Viard served as President from 1999 to 2011. It is at the initiative of each of our publications and numerous projects such as the opening of a tourist reception point. She continues to be very active in the association, especially in guided tours. She was appointed Honorary Member in January 2013.
Among the many activities of the association, the reception of tourists occupies a privileged place. The association is at the origin of the implementation of Point I on the village in 1997, whose role is to welcome and inform local, national or foreign tourists about the tourist potentialities of the commune and its surroundings the pilgrims of Santiago de Compostela.
In May 2009, the Communauté de Communes de l’Ouest Roannais (CCOR) took over the management of the tourist and cultural center:
the cure. Since January 2013, this function has expired at Roannais Agglomération.
This space offers cultural events, but also a Point Information boutique. The association has provided the hosting service on a weekly basis on a voluntary basis, in addition to the services of the tourist animation agent, until the end of 2013.
