South Carleton HS

Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 625 Richmond & District

The Richmond Legion promotes and encourages SCHS students to participate in our programs and activities:

Remembrance Poster & Literary Contests

South Carleton students regularly enter both the poster and literary contests and do very well, often advancing beyond the local level.

Bursaries

The Richmond Legion provides Bursaries of $1000.00 from The Poppy Fund. Candidates must live in Richmond and District and have a family affiliation with the Armed Forces. Applications can be found in Guidance. 

Community Service Hours

Volunteers can get their Community Hours at The Richmond Legion. There is a Sunday Seniors Dinner planned for the second week in December. Look for our flyer posted near Guidance.

Public Speaking Contest

A Public-speaking Contest is held in early March. Contestants can choose the topic and there are cash prizes for 1st , 2nd and 3rd place.

Personal Accounts of Veterans

The Richmond Legion has members who can give personal accounts of veterans from WW11, the Korean War, and modern-day conflicts. Consider the Legion as a resource to learn about History, first-hand.

We are here for you, and as your Youth Officer, I am just a phone call, or an email away.
