The membership card renewal period is approaching fast !

We wish to inform you of important changes regarding membership card renewals.

Effective January 2026, the official validity period for membership cards will be from April 1st to March 31st of the following year.

Here’s how renewals will work:

Anyone who renews between January 1st and March 31st will be considered a member for the period ending March 31st of the following year. For example, a renewal made on February 15, 2026, will be valid until March 31, 2027.
Anyone who renews after March 31st, that is, between April 1st and December 31st, will also have their membership expire on the following March 31st. For example, a renewal made on August 10, 2026, will be valid until March 31, 2027.

Therefore, regardless of the payment date within the year, all membership cards will now expire on March 31st.

This change aims to simplify membership management and standardize validity periods for all members.

In addition, the “Affiliate Member” category no longer exists. Also, as previously announced, we have slightly increased membership fees for the first time in 10 years.

Thank you for your cooperation and your continued support of the Trudel-le Family Association.

We look forward to having you with us for many years to come!

The results of the Red Book auction

Here are the results of the auction for the sale of the “Red Book.” As a reminder, all proceeds will go towards the maintenance of the Trudelle monument.

The lucky winner is Katie Trudelle, who bid $800 and is giving the book to her father, Joseph Trudelle, for Christmas.

After explaining the shipping costs to Katie, and believing the auction was in US dollars, she sent us $1,000 Canadian.

A big thank you to you, Katie!

However, almost simultaneously, another bid of $750 was placed by Michael Downes. We had received a book from another member while the auction was taking place, and since the bids arrived at the same time, our president, Denis Trudelle, decided to also allocate a book to Michael.

Therefore, we have just received $1,750 for the preservation of our monument. Furthermore, we have two people delighted with their purchase!

If you have a red book, consider it a valuable item. By donating it to the association, you’ll help make a Trudel happy and, at the same time, contribute to the preservation of our monument.

Here are the bids received:
Simon Trudel, $300
Katie Trudelle, $400
Gene Trudell, $450
Katie Trudelle, $500
Larry Trudel, $600
Katie Trudelle, $650
Cecile Bouchard for Michael Bownes, $750
Katie Trudelle, $800
