Comments from 1849 Army Cadets Mess Dinner before Christmas:


We ended off our year with a Mess Dinner where Legion President Barry Kimber and Army Cadet League Rep Major Gillian Federico (Ret'd) were the joint guests-of-honour. During this Mess Dinner, President Kimber presented our Corps with a very generous donation  cheque.  Given the unprecedented difficulties we've all faced over the last year and a half, this donation held a greater significance than its monetary value.  It served as a reminder of the depth of the relationship we have with the Legion.  We could not ask for a truer friend or a more staunch supporter of our cadets, and we are profoundly grateful for it.



For our veterans

Hello! Hang in there everyone.  


Just a gentle reminder that the Orangeville  Legion has confidential, knowledgeable volunteers to assist our Veterans. Anyone who has served, or is serving, Canadian or Allied Veterans, and requires help of any kind is encouraged to reach out and call the Legion and leave a message: 519-942-4895, or email the Orangeville Legion at:   rcl233@rogers.com 


The Shelburne Legion has a veterans meeting for coffee and chitchat every second Wednesday (next is December 22nd)  at 10:00 a.m.  You can just show up or contact Linda Bowman via email at    t325wbs@sympatico.ca  

(note, the bus is $4.50 for seniors each way)

      please help support the orangeville legion

      We are reaching out to our community for help. Many of you have enjoyed a meal, played bingo or attended one of our many other events.   There have been many members over the years, perhaps even your parent or grandparent were a member. Almost everyone has fond memories of our Orangeville Legion which was founded back in 1935.

      The legion supports our military veterans and their families. In our community our legion also donates to many charities including the food bank, hospital and gives support to seniors and youth in our town. Our legion is a nonprofit organization which is run by volunteers.  You don't have to have been a veteran to be a member, just have a desire to help us keep the Remembrance and help the community.

      Due to having to close our branch back on March 16th because of Covid-19 our financial loss has been severe, as our branch’s income comes from renting our hall, as well as food and bar sales. Our president, Barry Kimber, put in an insurance claim for loss of income due to the outbreak, but we were denied as were all other legions in Ontario. Our branch was counting on receiving money from our insurance company, but since the claims were denied, we are asking for your help.  Some legion branches will not survive this.

      Please make a donation to our Orangeville Legion, Branch 233 to help us to be able to continue making more great memories for the people of Orangeville.  Please remember every little bit helps, all small donations do add up, and we appreciate any help you can give.  Thank you

      If you prefer to donate by cheque please contact the legion.  Thank you for your support!!!!

      THE LITTLE LEGION WITH A BIG HEART Comrades and friends of the R.C.L. Br 233 Orangeville. More good news about this community that we are a part of. This afternoon, the branch was paid a visit by the Northerners MotorCycle Club. Just a fantastic bunch of riders from the local area who truly like the freedom of getting on their bikes and getting out and enjoying themselves. Not only did they come visit us, but a bunch of their friends as well (cars of course). It was great to see so many new people come and spend some time with us. But, there was an added surprise. They came to make a donation in support of this legion. Randy Duncan, who spoke for the group, let us know that a great many of the riders had relatives who had served this country of ours (W1/WW2), with some making the ultimate sacrifice. He further said, that as a group, the discussion had was that with the Legion being in need, they had to do something. He mentioned that due to the covid-19 crisis, their club has been unab

      ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION

      Founded in 1925, the  Royal Canadian Legion is Canada’s largest Veteran support and community service organization. We are a non-profit organization with a national reach across Canada as well as branches in the U.S., Europe and Mexico. With more than 275,000 members, many of whom volunteer an extraordinary amount of time to their branches, our strength is in our numbers and in our efforts. 

      BUT WAIT, THERE IS MORE!

      There is no requirement now to have a family link to a veteran in order to become a member of the Royal Canadian Legion. Although our main focus continues to be care of Veterans, their dependents, and those still serving in the Canadian Forces,  Legions throughout Ontario  contribute to the well-being of our communities by sponsoring numerous community programs.   Click on our links to learn even more!
