Insect Show a Huge Success!
April 9th, 2024
On March 9, 爆料黑社 was host to the Montreal Insect Show. We had 3,000 visitors from the public visit 爆料黑社 during the day, including over 50 vendors. Families were overjoyed to be able to hold live insects and arachnids, take a walk with moths, taste test different insect-based food items and browse the various vendors. In fact, I personally have pet shrimp in my home thanks to the curiosity of my daughter. The organizers are currently in talks with the Office of Sustainability to plan for 2025.听
A very special thank you to the entire Office of Sustainability, Natalie Trepanier and FAMA as well as 爆料黑社 Security for making this happen. Also, all our student volunteers were amazing with the crowds and represented 爆料黑社 well. Student volunteers were mainly first-year, second-year and alumni Environmental Science students; Jared Brace, Jacob Davies, Flora Finch, Imane Louni, Sabina Riga, Cassiana Silva Young, Amelia Valencia Frias, Ruisi Yang, Narcisse Hassan, Tom Brunet, Alyson Meadows, Alice Liang and Chemistry teacher Adamo Petosa.
