After a three-year absence, a Francophone tradition will return to Prescott and Russell. The Banquet de la Francophonie will take place on April 10 at the Embrun Sports Complex. The event will once again highlight the people and organizations that contribute to the vitality of French in the region. In addition, the ACFO of Prescott and Russell is changing the meaning of its name to the Association de la communauté franco-ontarienne de Prescott et Russell, a name considered more inclusive.
