Monday, April 8, starting at noon
Edgar Rouleau Arena parking lot
(1450 Dawson Avenue)
Join us for a group experience as we’ll witness an incredible total solar eclipse! The Dorval Astronomy Club will be on site with their telescopes and expertise to help you take advantage of this event which isn’t foreseen again for the next 180 years. It is a once-in-a-lifetime event!
We invite you to bring a picnic blanket or a chair in order to be more comfortable during the event. We also encourage you to come on foot, as the parking lot will be closed for safety reasons.
Here is the full schedule:

The City of Dorval will once again hold its popular Community Treasure Hunt, this time on Saturday, May 4.
In an effort to promote the reuse and recycling of household items, we are encouraging residents to place their unwanted yet functional and useful items curbside on May 6 for free pickup by other members of the community. It is a garage sale without permits and price tags – all items are given away!
