MARCH 27 – Alto Tâmega e Barroso distinguishes Father Fontes with the title of Ambassador of the region
The entire life path of Father Fontes, which you can learn about in detail in the attached document, is in line with this purpose, highlighting his resilience, because, despite his health condition having worsened over the past few years, and his advanced age, he accepted the disease, not letting the diagnosis be a limiting factor for his contribution to the growth and recognition of the region.
Despite being a figure very associated to the municipality of Montalegre, all the work developed in the various themes and, specifically, in tourism, has allowed to give visibility and recognition, not only to this municipality, as to others belonging to the territory of Alto Tâmega and Barroso.
Therefore, given the contribution for the touristic development of all the region, the Intermunicipal Community of Alto Tâmega e Barroso (CIMAT) will distinguish Father Fontes as Ambassador of Alto Tâmega e Barroso, becoming thus the third to integrate this net.
