To our sporting friends,

C’est avec grand plaisir que nous accueillons cette année la troisième édition du « Flow des Gabarriers » qui traversera 16 des communes de Grand Cognac, pour son spectaculaire « marathon de nage » sur 33 km, au départ de Châteauneuf-sur-Charente avec une arrivée sur les quais de Cognac.

Our region is proud to welcome open water swimmers to compete in our river La Charente. It is a priority for us to support large-scale events such as this, which exemplify the values of sport: challenging oneself, respect for others, team spirit and solidarity. These values are shared by Grand Cognac and its sports clubs.

We would like to thank the organisers for choosing our beautiful destination, and the volunteers for helping make this event a success

Grand Cognac will continue to support sports initiatives as part of its "Land of the Games 2024" label for international athletes in their preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

Grand Cognac supports sport!

Jérôme Sourisseau, President of Grand Cognac and Xavier Triouillier, Vice-President in charge of sports policy.
