Shelburne Legion news
September 24, 2014 · 0 Comments
I would like to start by thanking everyone who was involved in our September 21st Afghanistan unveiling. A special thanks to Liz Whitten for organizing this event and to Pastor Gord Horsley for having some pull from above to keep the rain away. The 21st was the beginning of Legion Week. Please come to the branch and see what the Legion is all about. There will be snacks provided all week for everyone to enjoy.
Wednesdays mornings our Veterans meet for conversation and coffee. All Veterans are welcome, you do not need to be a member of our branch if you would like to attend.
Wednesday nights is our in house dart league beginning at 8 p.m. If you are interested in sparing please arrive by 7 p.m. and let them know.
Friday September 26th we will be having another Jam Night with Brenda and Mark as your hosts.
Saturday the 27th we will be having a KICX’S FM Video Dance in the Warriors Hall. Tickets are $20 each which includes a buffet. Dance begins at 8 p.m. and the buffet will be available at 10 p.m. The tickets are available at the bar, we will only be selling 300 tickets so don’t miss out.
Our branch runs mostly by volunteers, if you are interested in volunteering just give us a call at 519 925-3800.
By Lesa Peat, president
