Special events for Legion Week

Once again branches of the Royal Canadian Legion are celebrating Legion Week (June 23 to 29) across Canada

Once again branches of the Royal Canadian Legion are celebrating Legion Week (June 23 to 29) across Canada.

To help members celebrate there will be an Open House and BBQ on Saturday, June 27 from 1 to 4 p.m. The regular Meat Draw will also be held that afternoon.

A special invitation is extended to all First Responders to drop in and visit.

Salmon Arm Branch #62 has been heavily involved in the community since it received its Charter on March 21, 1927.

Money raised through the branch through endeavours such as the Poppy Campaign and meat draws are returned to aid veterans and the community.

These donations have been used for medical travel, bursaries, scholarships, youth sports, Salmon Arm community groups, medical research, youth groups such as Scouts, Guides and Cadets, veterans aid, sick and visiting and youth awareness programs.
