President’s Message
Langford Legion, Branch 91,
April, 2022
Following up on my memo to you at the beginning of the month, the Building committee has made some changes to our upcoming plans for early May when construction begins at the branch. As you know, the intention was to shut down the kitchen services as of May 9th and leave the lounge and games room open. It has now been decided to shut the branch down entirely as of that date, May 9th.
There are a number of factors for us making this decision. First, it should reduce the overall closure time and the renovation should be completed earlier than originally scheduled. We also anticipate a financial saving as work will no longer be duplicated in various areas of the building at different times.
While we recognize that this will be a significant inconvenience to many of our members, we believe the benefits of a beautiful, renovated facility will be well worth it when done. I should add that we are currently searching for an appropriate facility to utilize while construction takes place. We will provide updates for you when more details become available.
Our phone lines and e-mails for the branch will continue to be available following the closure. As always, if you have any questions or concerns regarding the plans for the coming months, please do not hesitate to contact the office.
