An event between land and sea: environmental protection as a hyphen

S’port d’Abord has deep roots in its territory, thus offering organizers the opportunity to devote several workshops to the preservation of the local environment. These interactive sessions and discussions are open to everyone, regardless of age. For the OSTL, this commitment to environmental awareness is part of an eco-responsibility approach that it has been fostering for several years and integrates it into its public events.

• the BioMA association will be present to present the Diversity Fresco, a collaborative workshop which invites you to discover what biodiversity really is: how we define it, what it allows and what degrades it.

• the Réunionnais Coral Observatory will raise awareness about the preservation of coral in the Saint-Pierre lagoon.

• the GCOI association will be present to introduce you to the bats present in the area. These animals are an essential part of the island’s diversity.

An intrinsically family event

Beyond offering a very large number of activities accessible from a very young age, S’port d’Abord will offer free daycare on Sunday November 12 for children over 3 years old, in the Estuary area. The CCAS of Saint-Pierre will offer daycare for children over 3 years old.

Activities not to be missed:

• A giant zumba at 9:00 a.m. in the Rivière d’Abord Estuary area.

• Sea rescue demonstrations with dogs by CCARETA (Club Canin Aquatique Réunion).

• Collective sports sessions (Zumba, pilates, hip-hop, etc.) to be found on the “podium” in the Port area on Saturday and Sunday. Check times and meeting locations for more details.

The big game fishing competition is canceled by the association of friends of the sea, according to information communicated Tuesday evening. A priori, the weather conditions forecast for this weekend do not allow for the smooth running of this event.
