Synchro Canada is pleased to announce the interim appointment of Stéphane Côté as Communications Coordinator.  In the busy domestic competition season ahead, he will be responsible for handling Synchro Canada’s electronic communications programs (newsletter, social media, website).  He will also be present at both National Championships to assist the local organizing committees as needed and act as Synchro Canada’s media relations contact.

Owner of a Québec-based communications firm since 2001, Stéphane has helped numerous businesses refine their online and social media presence over the years.  He has also been involved in the synchro community for many years, most notably as Meet Manager for last year’s Canadian Open Championships in Québec City.

“I am confident that with his unique blend of expertise in the fields of communications and synchro, Stéphane will capably guide our various communications and media relations programs until a full-time manager is in place”, mentions Jackie Buckingham, Synchro Canada’s CEO.
