Hello Fiona, here's what is happening at Your Centennial Legion Branch #285


Tuesday, Sept 17 2024

to

Monday, Sept 23, 2024

To all 1855 members of Legion #285 Centennial Calgary



When we become a member of the Legion in the membership declaration and initiation quote it says: “I agree to participate in the annual Poppy Campaign”


No one expects members to adhere to this; but, to be able to put together the Poppy Campaign every year, we as a committee, need the members to hear us and to keep that agreement.


Please volunteer even an hour of your time as it will help to bring in money for the Veterans in need. It also relieves the stress of the people who have donated their time for many years.

It is a plea!

I know that the only way to reach out to every member these days is thru social media. Every avenue has been taken to make this happen. 

Thank you for listening.


Never will we forget and forever we will volunteer. 


Respectfully


Pat Lomenda
