Poppy & Remembrance CommitteeThe Annual Poppy Campaign is the most important fundraiser that the Legion holds for two weeks every November.  All members are expected to  participate in this important campaign. There are a myriad of jobs including canvassers in malls and shopping centres, area captains  delivering and picking up poppy trays, and many other helpers who look after many of the tasks. Included in this is a great  deal of work that is required in preparation for the Remembrance ceremonies. Veterans and ex-service members are especially helpful as speakers  in local schools.

                  

Membership CommitteeMembership is the lifeblood of the Legion.  All members are asked to encourage friends and family to join our great organization.  Committee members help in processing membership applications, phoning committees, participating in initiation ceremonies and many other  tasks.
