The Legion held a group birthday party on Saturday for members, friends and residents who turned 70 this year. Nearly 80 people gathered for a potluck dinner, a spectacular cake and dancing to Perfect Match.

Hank Dickey, Rufus Coombes, Joyce Fraser, Ray Weir, Al Wilson, Sharon Weir and Frank Isnardy and their friends and families enjoyed a warm and friendly birthday celebration at the Legion.

Three of the people celebrating with their families at the Legion birthday party were Levi, Autumn and Hailey Weir.

They had their photograph taken with a creative vegetable ‘bouquet’ that their mom Michelle brought to the birthday potluck.

“She works at a flower shop so she knows how to do it,” Autumn said.

Autumn explained that they were there to celebrate the birthdays of their grandparents, Sharon and Ray Weir. When asked if she gave her ‘Nana’ and ‘Papa’ a birthday hug, she said, “I give them a hug every day.”
