Greetings from the Langford Legion, Prince Edward Branch!

-

Our staff and volunteers are very active on the Westshore serving our 1,000-plus members and community. We are so pleased to be open once again, operating under the “new normal” as we continue to deal with the ongoing COVID19 pandemic.

Our members and guests who have come to the branch since opening our doors just over two weeks ago certainly see a difference in the way we deliver services. But our goal is to ensure everyone is protected during this unique time while attending the branch, whether it is to enjoy a beverage, play a game of pool or attend our Saturday meat draw.

We are currently open for our members Tuesday to Saturday, from noon until the early evening, and the popular kitchen menu is available from 4:30 p.m. to closing weekdays and Saturday afternoons. We have also opened a licensed patio area for members to enjoy these warmer days. Hopefully, in the near future, we will be in a position to expand our hours of operation and our activities.

The legion plays a vital role in Langford and all of the Westshore communitie­s. Throughout the year we assist many local community groups, and our ongoing ability to do so depends on our valued members taking advantage of the services we provide. Hopefully, in the near future, we will be able to expand our hours of operation and provide more entertainm­ent opportunit­ies like the Saturday Music Bingo. While we adhere to the limits of numbers of people attending the branch, the multi-use auditorium is available for a variety of community and private events, too.

On behalf of our Langford Legion Executive, members and staff, I would like to convey our deepest appreciati­on to all health care workers, first responders and all essential workers who have done such an outstandin­g job keeping us safe during the past four months during this most difficult time. Thank You.

Norm Scott, President, Langford Legion, Prince Edward Branch
