The customs officer is retiring but no one to take over... We are counting on you to help us recruit! In French only.

But now that the next generation of customs officers is due to retire, the Old Customs House is recruiting!
We're counting on you to get involved!
The last customs officer will be sharing his anecdotes and funny and unusual stories about the history of the border. Pigs, sausages, cheese... you name it! But to train new customs officers to carry out their duties, there's nothing like practice to put you to the test! But don't count on him to entrust the brigade to just anyone: he has a few challenges in store to test your skills! Challenges and games await you to test your skills!
Will you earn your rank as a customs officer?

As this is an outdoor activity, you'll need to wear weather-appropriate clothing.
