On Friday, October 27th, the Kindersley Legion Branch No. 57 held their annual Awards Night at the Legion Hall. Jackie’s Delicious Delights served an appetizing ham supper to the thirty hungry visitors who came for the occasion.

Scott Holloway, President/Chaplain, did the honours of presenting the awards. Murray Jones, Adele Jones, Julie Osborne and Carol Venn received 5 Year pins.

Steve Boodram and Rae Ann Howe received 20 Year pins, and Ellen Krepps and Scott Holloway received their 25 Year pins.

Now the Legion is preparing for their upcoming Remembrance Day service which will be held at the Clearview Community Church in Kindersley on November 11. A procession will be leaving the Legion Hall for the church at 10:40 a.m. Those wishing to march with the Legion are instructed to be at the hall no later than 10:30 a.m. The service will start just shortly before 11:00 a.m. so that the two minutes of silence can be observed precisely at the 11th hour. All those in attendance should plan to be in their seats by 10:50 a.m.

Anyone who desires to lay a wreath can contact Scott Holloway at 306-460-4688; wreathes are available at a cost of $50.00 per wreath. If people are not marching with the procession, wreath layers are advised to be at the church no later than 10:40 a.m.

The Kindersley Legion will be providing a luncheon at the Legion Hall after the service, and everyone is welcome to attend. In the afternoon, they will also be having a Remembrance Service for the residents of Caleb Village at 2:00 p.m. and a service at Heritage Manor at 3:00 p.m.

In preparation for Remembrance Day, Scott said, “Once again we will be putting the red lights on all the grave markers of the veterans in the cemetery.”
