Our Mission

Our mission is to serve Veterans, including serving military and RCMP members and their families, to promote Remembrance, and to serve our communities and our country.

Since its humble beginnings, Branch 68 has been proudly supporting its community in many significant ways. When you join the Legion, you support the many services we offer to Veterans, serving military, RCMP Members, and their families. Your membership also helps provide essential services within our communities with supporting seniors groups, minor sports, local hospitals, drop-in centres, Cadets, youth and sport programs, bursaries, and much more. There are many ways the Legion gives, and by joining, you, too, can help make this difference.

March 2026 | Volume 1, Issue 3

As we roll toward spring, we’re shining a light on the incredible local businesses who stepped up in a big way for our March Raffle Branch 68 Bylaws.

A heartfelt thank you to Dave Beausoleil Electric and North Simcoe Electrical for donating the Car Detailing Supreme Package — talk about driving into the new season with sparkle and pride. There’s nothing like that first fresh, clean ride after a long Ontario winter. 🚗✨

And to Local Vibes for the cozy LOVE hoodie — stylish, local, and perfect for those crisp waterfront evenings. Supporting community while wearing community… we love to see it.

With over $450 in value up for grabs, this raffle is a beautiful example of neighbours supporting neighbours. Your generosity helps keep our Branch strong and vibrant.

🎟 Tickets: $5 each or 5 for $20 (available at the bar)
📅 Draw takes place at the end of our General Meeting on March 31st.

Let’s show these businesses some love — when local supports local, everybody wins.
