George Bowman, our membership chair thanks everyone for renewing their 2020 Legion dues. Congratulations to Bruce Hill who won the Membership Early Bird Draw for the free one year Legion membership for 2020.

Let us remember our veterans and their families. Lest we forget! Legion members are encouraged to support the activities at the legion in order to provide support to veterans, the community and youth. Recently our youth at the Lion’s Head School was given monetary awards for their Remembrance Posters, Essays and/or Poems. Thank you to Kim White for organizing the Remembrance contest at the school. Thank you to the people from the community who volunteered to be the judges. These monetary awards were provided from the Lion’s Head Legion Poppy Trust Fund.
