A host of new faces have joined Collège Boréal in Sudbury.
Martin Michaud has been appointed president of the college's board of directors, while Lisa Bonin has been appointed as president of the board of directors for La Fondation du Collège Boréal, which provides students with grants and scholarships.
Michaud, who serves as vice-president of external services for Bestech, replaces outgoing president Philippe Boissonneault. Michaud has more than 30 years of experience with businesses in Northern Ontario in the capacities of manager and vice-president, and he has served on many boards of directors as president and vice-president. Michaud is beginning his second term with the board of directors of Collège Boréal.
Joining Michaud are new board members André Dutrisac, Michelle Lamy, France Picotte, Stéphan Plante and Mélanie Poitras. Outgoing members include Langis Dion, Rosaire Lavoie and Richard Joly.
Lisa Bonin, new president of the board of directors for La Fondation du Collège Boréal, will replace outgoing president Stéphan Plante. A well-known businesswoman in the community, Bonin founded Eventful Times, a corporate event planning company with a provincewide reputation. Her vast network and her familiarity with many public and private charitable organizations led her to the position of vice-chair of the 2007 Sudbury and District United Way campaign, which raised more than $2 million.
Joining Bonin are new board members Philippe Boissonneault, Dan Legrand and Mélanie Poitras. Outgoing members include Désiré Matenga and Denis Thériault.
