MONTREAL, Aug. 8, 2014 /CNW Telbec/ - Serving as principal presenter for
the past eight years, Laurentian Bank is pleased to be associating once
again with the International Balloon Festival of
Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. Being held August 9-17, the event always
provides a most memorable experience for the hundreds of thousands of
festivalgoers typically in attendance.
Under the banner of the Festival, the Bank has launched an exclusive
offer whereby all new clients will be eligible to receive cash back of
$150 and more on its investment products, VISA cards and banking
packages. Additional information about these offers is available online
at banquelaurentienne.ca/balloons.
Throughout the duration of this colourful event, Laurentian Bank will be
offering a host of activities for young families in the Little + area. In addition, those participating in the photo contest will be
eligible to win a flight in the Bank's very own hot air balloon, while
festivalgoers will find answers to any questions they may have about
products and services at the on-site information booth and from Bank
representatives on the ground.
As in the past, Laurentian Bank clients will be able to benefit from
special treatment on-site. More specifically, upon presentation of
their Laurentian Bank debit or VISA card, they will have access to the Laurentian Bank Lounge to get out of the sun, freshen up, and to enjoy something to eat.
Finally, the Laurentian Bank hot air balloon will be more visible than
ever in the sky. In fact, it will be taking over 40 flights during the
course of the Festival, in addition to the 20 flights that will be
launching during the rest of the year.
