Le 17b, the district’s new entertainment center Venoix a Caen (Calvados), one year of existence. Opened on September 3, 2021, the new MJC awaited for nearly 50 years in this historic district quickly won over 2,000 members. “We understood that entering the new building created enthusiasm,” says Jessika Euvrie, coordinator of the leisure center, in charge of communication. In this 2e back for 17b, “the challenge is to transform the test, to perpetuate it”.
All activities “where there is room”
The objective seems to have been achieved, or almost. For the resumption of the 50 activities, from Monday September 5, 2022, the center has already registered “1900 registered” according to her. But to attract newcomers, and fill the remaining places in the courses and workshops, it offers a “discovery pass”, instead of the old “small card”, reserved for children under 13 for two sessions. try in a single activity. This time, the pass is for “everyone”, children and adults.
For three weeks, from September 5 to 23, they will be able to access the first 3 lessons, of all activities, at least those “where there is still room”, warns Jessika Euvrie. “We are a bit of a victim of our success, a dozen are already complete. »
This discovery pass costs €20. “It is deductible from the registration for the year in an activity”, she specifies. For the 17b, the pass is a bit of a “bet”. It must convince a minimum of new members to be commendable. At the same time, for 3 weeks, “all participants are paid”.
Twice as many activities
Jessika Euvrie concedes, the 17b team “gropes each year” to have its offer evaluated. In the new building, the volume of activities offered has doubled, “young members can no longer take a discovery card for each one”. Hence the idea of an unlimited pass.
In total, the center offers 50 activities. With classics – from knitting to yoga, from musicals to hiking. And 8 new features: embroidery café, Malkovsky free dance, percussion, kick-boxing with world champion Laura Hembert, afro cardio, sambo, yin yoga and taïchi chuan.
