Early Bird Winners
Congratulations to our two Early Bird winners, Robert Elliott and Joanne Falotico. They have won a complimentary renewal of their 2027 membership.
During our 100th Anniversary, all new members can join The Royal Canadian Legion for free in 2026!
Your membership will help strengthen the Legion and our support for Veterans and our communities across the country. Plus, there are lots of great ways to get involved and have fun!
| Introducing the LEGION 100 WIN BIG GIVEAWAY! |
| 2026 is the Legion’s Centenary year, and one of the exciting ways we’re celebrating is by partnering with Ford Dealers of Canada to offer every Legion Member three chances to drive away in a brand-new Ford F-150! This promotion is designed to encourage Members to renew and stay connected with the Legion. |
| Current Members: Renew your membership for 2026 to be automatically entered into the Legion 100 Big Win Giveaway. New (Free) Members: Those who join during the free membership offer in 2026 will need to renew for 2027 to be entered in the Giveaway. Lifetime Members will automatically be eligible and receive this initial contest entry. Any new member who paid to join for the 2026 year before the Free Membership promotion was offered is automatically entered. |
| After renewal, all eligible Members can earn two more chances to win — by shopping online at the Legion’s store and by donating online to the Poppy Fund. |
2026 Membership Renewal
Your Membership must be renewed by January 31, 2026, to remain a member in good standing!
Membership remains at $60 for 2026.
Thank you if you have already renewed.
Branch 345 Indigenous T-shirts are available for sale at the branch, with plenty in stock.
Sizes Large, X-Large, 2XL, and 3XL, priced at $25.
All proceeds are being directed to our roof fund.
The artwork was created by a local indigenous artist, Ren Lonechild.
The following is Ren’s description of the artwork:
“The Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island believed the world was on the back of the turtle.
The orbs surrounding it represent the Creator’s energy.
The orbs with the poppy symbolize the fallen Soldiers.
The Dreamcatcher represents the hopes and dreams of these Soldiers.
The medicine wheel teaches us how to maintain peace and prosperity.”

Our Branch relies on the support and involvement of its members. We are looking for volunteers for Saturday Wheel Spin, running functions, kitchen assistants, BBQ cooks, members to organize fundraising activities, and anyone with skills or experience that could benefit the Branch.
Looking for volunteers to help out on Canada Day!
Every contribution, big or small, helps keep our Branch active and successful. Come in and have a chat with any of our Executives.
Thank you for your continued support.
