ERIC LEBLANC SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Eric was the founder of Shediac Bay Cruises Inc., a well known
boat tour operation and popular tourist attraction in Pointedu-Chene, New Brunswick. The company was created
through his hard work, dedication and love for the ocean.
Eric began the company in 1998 with a converted 40 ft.
fishing boat licensed to carry 14 passengers. In 2002, he had
a 53 ft custom-built boat, the "Ambassador", which is licensed
to carry 65 passengers and 3 crew members. The new
owners, Ron and Denise now continue the work started by
Eric.
In Eric's memory, the LeBlanc family created a scholarship
available to a Pointe-du-Chene resident who is a High School graduate student going on to post
secondary education. If the course lasts two or more years the student is also eligible to apply
for his or her second year.
Applications must be received by the LeBlanc family on or before June 30th, by mail, E-mail,
