IN MEMORY OF HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH ll
Dominion Command of the Royal Canadian Legion, in deference to, and to honour the memory of Queen Elizabeth II during this period of mourning, has requested all Branches defer all activities such as dinners, entertainment and meat draws until after the funeral. In accordance with these directives, Branch 176 has canceled all such activities during this period with the exception of a Meat Draw to be held Sunday, September 18th, 2022.
Queen Elizabeth II was a great supporter and/or patron of a vast number of wide ranging Charities worldwide. These include a large number in Canada including Canadian Cancer Society and CF regimental and Military Associations among others too numerous to name. She had d a special focus on seniors and youth with support for all Girl guides, Cadet organizations and closer to home for us with our predecessor the Canadian Air Force Association. In celebration of her memory and knowing her support for charities, we will have our Charity Support meat draw event which also supports Youth with Cadets and other senior and veteran programs this Sunday Prior to the funeral which takes place at 3:00 A.M PDT. We will have a minute of silence prior to the start in her memory and everyone will have the opportunity to be able to sign the book of Condolence/Remembrance one last time.
All private, non-Branch events are still allowed to take place.
