Birch Hills Legion Branch 122
114 bellamy S0J0G0 Birch Hills, SK, Canada

Excellent news! Our Branch has qualified for funds from the Veterans Organization Support Funding designated by the Federal Government. These funds will be essential to ensuring our Branches viability. We have also qualified for several other grants and there are positive changes on the horizon for our Branch!

It is with sadness that I inform the membership that Gertrude Pratt, a ordinary member for over 20 years has passed. I have been in contact with the family who have indicated they will have a celebration of life planned for the summer of 2021.

Good Evening, I received several phone calls from people whose names were missed in the wreath donation portion of the video. I have apologized to those who have contacted me. Unfortunately we were unable to re-shoot the video. I did record a quick video apologizing to the membership, donors and Community about this and personally reading out the names and it is included below. If we do another video next year, we will ensure that this area receives extra attention. https://youtu.be/JxynV0deHA4

Unfortunately we missed some of the people that were to be included on the list of memorial wreath donations. I am including the full list here: JOHN COOK, DAN COOK, RITA AND ERNIE LOWE, THELMA AND WILFRED NEWHOUSE, LES SKAAR, STANLEY COOLIDGE, HARVEY PRATT, GEORGE HILL, GORDON SAVAGE, WILLARD EVANS, GRETA AND SIGURD HOKNES, BETZ AND ERNIE STOBBS, GEORGE STOBBS, JACKIE STOBBS, GORDON & JIM AND ROSS MACFIE, AGNES AND BILL CRAWFORD, BRENDON BLISS, HERBERT QUAYLE, OSCAR MOHN, BURTON AYLES, ASHLEY SMITH, FRED AND EDWARD LYPCHUK, GEORGE FRIESEN, KEN BERG, WM ZELENSKI, LESTER FRANKLIN, LOUIS DEMERAIS and ED MCCONNELL. Again, I apologize for this and I will also be including this list in the local newsletter. I should also have the list of companies that have donated as that list was not available to me at the time the video was produced.

The 2020 Birch Hills Remembrance video is ready for viewing. Please share widely.

We completed the remembrance day video today. I will advise when it is uploaded and how to access.
