While the raison d'être of the Legion was, is, and will continue to be to care for our veterans and remember their sacrifices, it also is a club that offers opportunities for our members and members of the public to gather and have fun.

Events and activities

We offer many regular activities such as Wednesday night bingo, Free Pool Saturdays and Sundays and various sports and games leagues that play throughout the week. We've also brought back Saturday night Live Entertainment.

Lewis and Shearn Memorial Bingo

The Lewis and Shearn Memorial bingo will be held on Wednesday 01 June. The money from that night will be donated to Ottawa’s Military Family Resource Centre. Please come out to play and to support a worthy project for our military family.

The door and kitchen open at 4 p.m. every Wednesday, and the games begin at 6:40.

This not only is very popular but also is one of the biggest sources of the money we donate to various charities throughout the year.

Sports and games

Most of our sports and games leagues, including sandbags, euchre, pool, board games, and darts, play from September through April.

Special events

We hold regular music jamborees featuring many of the finest country artists in Ottawa and the valley. We also host a Trivia Challenge for Charity four times a year and organize various events to raise money for community causes.

We also conduct services and wreath-laying ceremonies at the Westboro Cenotaph to mark three major Remembrance events: Battle of The Atlantic Sunday, Battle of Britain, and Remembrance Day.
