OUR NEW 2026 MEMBERS
MARK R. LEFRESNE, NSLS #720
Mark
was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He
received his diploma in 2011 from the Centre of Geographic Sciences
and received his CBEPS certificate in 2025 while satisfying
the educational requirements for licensure. His surveying
career has taken him from Fort McMurray through to Labrador City before eventually
coming back home to Nova Scotia.
Mark now calls Tatamagouche his home, for the time being.
Mark serves on the Tatamagouche Village Commission, the Colchester County Planning Advisory Committee, the Colchester Regional Accessibility Advisory Committee, and the French River Source Water Protection Committee. Mark
was introduced to surveying at an early age by his uncle,
Thomas Giovannetti, NSLS #598. Mark articled with
Stevan Forbes, NSLS #614, for five years, while the
Bonnyman family provided invaluable support throughout his journey.
Finally, Andrew Grant, NSLS #687, deserves special recognition for convincing Mark not to resign from his own ambitions.
GANS often have events for
anyone interested in attending.
