Yvoire, France — Les bénévoles de l'antenne de Chambéry ont été présents samedi au festival L'Effet Papillon consacré à l'écologie et à la solidarité, qui s'est déroulé les 1er et 2 juillet 2006 dans le village médiéval d'Yvoire (74) organisé par l'association La Belle Ethique.
Yvoire is a small village located on the southern shore of the Lake Léman. The pointe d'Yvoire is the limit of the petit lac, the western part of the lake, mostly Swiss territory and often considered by the Genevans as "their" lake (lac de Genève), and the grand lac, which is larger and deeper.
Fortunately, Yvoire never became an important fortress and was spared the destructions of the wars involving France, Savoy and the Swiss states.
The village of Yvoire has not changed a lot since it was described by Ramuz, but is now extremely crowdy in summertime, being the hot spot of tourism on the southern shore of the lake Leman.
