They say "a new broom sweeps clean" and that's just what's happening in Branch 233. Last weekend, a crew of eager volunteers got down and dirty and, with much spit and polish, gave our interior a new lease on life. Our banquet hall floor was replaced this week and we are grateful for the generous donation from the Ladies Auxiliary to help make this possible.

Along with our newly shingled roof, Branch 233 is looking darn good these days.

Preparations for our outdoor events are also shaping up nicely and everyone is welcome to come and celebrate Canada Day, Founders Weekend and the Annual Veterans Picnic on August 6th. More information about these events will follow.

Saturday Karaoke continues to be a big hit with Jill Phillips 'Howling Wolves' and Nancy

Belsey's 'Music Talks' providing the entertainment on alternate Saturdays. This Saturday's Karaoke provider will be 'Music Talks'.

What a drastic change in the weather!

Despite the frigid temperature and wind, the 164 Air Cadets Annual Inspection at Taylor Field last Saturday was well attended and as excellent as always.

Branch 220 was well represented at the event.

Meat Spins Are Back. Saturdays at the branch 4 p.m.

Everyone welcome to join us for this fun time. Everyone is always welcome try euchre on Monday afternoons, or just drop in any time for a visit.

Wishing all the guys a Happy Father's Day, 'til next time, yours in comradeship.
