It was at the first edition of the Winter Carnival of Valcourt in 1966 that the organizers had the idea to create a mascot in the colours of the Ski-Doo snowmobiles at the time. Designed by Gilles Favreau, Bonhomme still wears the same custom and fibreglass head today. Since his birth, Bonhomme has participated in many events. Bonhomme has even walked with duchesses, who are often by his side. Still today, Bonhomme visits the citizens of Valcourt regularly at many diverse events, such as the Grand Prix Ski-Doo de Valcourt. <br \/>Small Scoop! For those lucky enough to see Bonhomme at the GPSV Halloween Valcourt event in 2020, yes, it&#8217;s true, Bonhomme has a twin! Two heads were designed in 1968.<\/p>\n<h3>Gilles Favreau tells us\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>\u00ab\u2009If my memory is good, the idea came from the Carnaval de Valcourt. The carnival committee asked my friend, Luc Tanguay to make the project a reality within a short period, and asked for my help to make the pattern. As my title was a regular moulder at Bombardier, I did the rest of the work and made only two copies. All of this work was done outside of working hours. Luc Tanguay passed away a few years ago, and it was he who inspired the model.\u2009\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_4,3_4&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Saviez-vous&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#efefef&#8221; border_color_all=&#8221;#4D4C4D&#8221; border_width_top=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_width_bottom=&#8221;2px&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFC425&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#1A1517&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFC425&#8243; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;25px||25px||false|false&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"et-pb-icon\" style=\"font-size: 33px;\">\ue007<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">DID YOU KNOW ?<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;3_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(0,0,0,0)&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; text_font=&#8221;|600|||||||&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;19px&#8221; background_color=&#8221;RGBA(0,0,0,0)&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|15px||15px|false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>There was a rumour that the Carnaval de Quebec had already made an offer to buy the Bonhomme Ski-Doo in the 1990s.

bient\u00f4t 55 ans\u2009! C\u2019est lors de la premi\u00e8re \u00e9dition du Carnaval d\u2019hiver de Valcourt en 1966 que les organisateurs ont l\u2019id\u00e9e de cr\u00e9er une mascotte aux couleurs des motoneiges Ski-Doo de l\u2019\u00e9poque. Con\u00e7ue en 1968 par Gilles Favreau, Bonhomme porte encore aujourd\u2019hui le m\u00eame costume et la m\u00eame t\u00eate en fibre de verre. D\u00e8s sa naissance, il participe \u00e0 plusieurs \u00e9v\u00e9nements. On le trouve r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement accompagn\u00e9 des duchesses. Encore aujourd\u2019hui, il rend visite aux citoyens de Valcourt r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement et \u00e0 l\u2019occasion de diverses activit\u00e9s, telles que le Grand Prix Ski-Doo de Valcourt. Petit scoop, ceux qui ont eu la chance de le voir \u00e0 l\u2019Halloween 2020 ont peut-\u00eatre constat\u00e9 qu\u2019il avait un jumeau\u2009! Et oui, deux t\u00eates en fibre de verre avaient \u00e9t\u00e9 con\u00e7ues en 1968.<\/p><h3>Gilles Favreau nous raconte\u2026<\/h3><p>\u00ab\u2009Si ma m\u00e9moire est bonne, l\u2019id\u00e9e venait du Carnaval de Valcourt. Le comit\u00e9 du carnaval a demand\u00e9 \u00e0 mon ami Luc Tanguay de r\u00e9aliser ce projet en un laps de temps assez court et m\u2019a demand\u00e9 de l\u2019aide pour r\u00e9aliser le patron. Comme mon titre \u00e9tait mouleur attitr\u00e9 chez Bombardier, c\u2019est moi qui ai fait le restant du travail et fait les deux seules copies. Tout ce travail a \u00e9t\u00e9 accompli en dehors des heures de travail. Luc Tanguay est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 depuis quelques ann\u00e9es d\u00e9j\u00e0 et c\u2019est lui qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 l\u2019inspirateur du mod\u00e8le.\u2009\u00bb<\/p><p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\"1_4,3_4\" admin_label=\"Saviez-vous\" _builder_version=\"4.9.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_color=\"#efefef\" border_color_all=\"#4D4C4D\" border_width_top=\"2px\" border_width_bottom=\"2px\" saved_tabs=\"all\"][et_pb_column type=\"1_4\" _builder_version=\"4.9.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_color=\"#FFC425\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.9.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" text_text_color=\"#1A1517\" text_font_size=\"18px\" background_color=\"#FFC425\" text_orientation=\"center\" custom_padding=\"25px||25px||false|false\"]<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"et-pb-icon\" style=\"font-size: 33px;\">\ue007<\/span><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">SAVIEZ-VOUS QUE ...<\/p><p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"3_4\" _builder_version=\"4.9.1\" _module_preset=\"default\" background_color=\"RGBA(0,0,0,0)\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.9.1\" text_font=\"|600|||||||\" text_line_height=\"19px\" background_color=\"RGBA(0,0,0,0)\" custom_margin_tablet=\"\" custom_margin_phone=\"\" custom_margin_last_edited=\"on|phone\" custom_padding=\"|15px||15px|false|false\" hover_enabled=\"0\" locked=\"off\" sticky_enabled=\"0\"]<\/p><p>Une rumeur raconte que le Carnaval de Qu\u00e9bec a d\u00e9j\u00e0 fait une offre pour acheter le Bonhomme Ski-Doo dans les ann\u00e9es 1990.
