Spring Work Party - 27th May, 2018

On Sunday, 27th May, 2018 a total of 28 Legion members took part in the Spring Work Party to ensure that the Branch was up to snuff for the Branch 36 D-Day Church Parade and Service.  Members of the work party split up into groups and did various tasks in and around the branch including sweeping the parking lot, checking plants in the front gardens, planting new plants around the Legion property and general cleanup.  Repainting of various outside parts of the Branch where the paint had suffered over the winter at the front and side entrances to the Branch.

The outside wall of the Branch building was painted where air conditioning units were removed last year.

Inside the Branch other tasks were being done.  Gord Sharpe replaced fluorescent bulbs upstairs along with replacing damaged covers over the bulbs in the ceiling in the upstairs kitchen area.

Marie Kobolynski and Marilyn Latchford cleaned the kitchen area, and went through everything in the freezer room in the kitchen upstairs and cleaned out any condiments before they reached their best-by dates.

Various in-house tasks were completed by Linda Rivers, Mary Whittaker and Dave Hawthorne including washing, cleaning and dusting variou areas in the club room and also in the Wentworth room.

After tasks were completed, the gas barbecue was taken out of storage and Brian Holme cooked hamburgers and sausages on it.  Everyone enjoyed the hamburges, along with potato salad and condiments prepared by Marie Kobolynksi and Marilyn Latchford of the Ladies Auxiliary.

Before everyone started on their meal, Paul Penney, the Branch 36 House and Grounds chair and organizer of this work party. stood and thanked everyone for volunteering for this Work Party and emphasized that it is only through volunteer work like that done today that Branch 36 continues to be such a good Legion branch.
