The Royal Canadian Legion is a non-profit, dues-supported, fraternal organization with approximately 1600 branches in Canada, the United States, Germany and The Netherlands. The Legion receives no financial assistance from any outside agency and membership is open to all Canadian citizens and Commonwealth subjects who subscribe to the purposes and objects of the organization.
The mission of The Royal Canadian Legion is “to serve veterans and their dependents, to promote Remembrance, and to act in the service of Canada and its communities.”
Each year the Legion organizes and runs the National Poppy Remembrance Campaign to remind Canadians of the tremendous debt we owe the men and women who have given their lives in the defense of Canada. The Legion also supports programs for seniors, particularly through direct community-level activities. The Legion’s youth programs provide scholarships and bursaries, sports programs and support to activities such as cadets, scouts and guides.
Our local Branch boasts a membership of approximately 160 people. We host a number of social events from sports – curling, golf, darts – to dances, suppers and gatherings for events such as the Grey Cup and Superbowl for football fans. The third week of September is the annual Legion Week with a variety of activities available for all to participate in!! Our dance hall and kitchen facilities are available for rental as well.
