A Ste Anne meeting place was consumed by fire early Saturday morning. As the sun rose, not much remained of Club Jovial, a fixture of Rue Centrale in Ste Anne.
Club president Roland Gosselin spoke with The Carillon around 7 a.m. at the scene.
Gosselin said the fire was spotted shortly before midnight and firefighters were on the scene for about three hours. The blaze, which appeared to start at the rear of building, eventually resulted in the club’s entire roof caving in.
He could only speculate the fire was perhaps electrical in nature as he awaited the arrival of an investigator from the Office of the Fire Commissioner.
