Re. Membership and Advance Ticket Sales: Weve had lots of questions and comments on this new policy/member benefit, so heres the scoop ~ Legions have a Primary Club Liquor License, which means we may only admit and serve Members and their Guests. Selling tickets in advance solely to members and their guests means we can more easily comply with licensing regulations. If youre not a member, you can become one very easily, anyone can join! You can join on the spot at an event, and are immediately a member. You can join and then buy tickets on the spot. Many of you have been present when weve been visited by the bylaw control officer or representatives (RCMP) who come to make sure were following regulations. This is not a Legion rule, it is our license requirement and thats what we have to work with, so please understand were not asking you for membership to make money (only $15 per membership goes to our branch to cover our admin costs). The more members we have, the easier it is for the Legion to run. If you come to an event without being a guest of a member, you may find friends in attendance who are members and ask them to sign you in, or you can join. Members can sign in up to four of their guests. Finally, we can only use members volunteers to help with the door according to licensing regs. At present we have a very small pool of member volunteers, which taxes them and our executives, all of whom are volunteering to keep events going at the legion. So we do need more members. Think of it as a co-op! (You may want to thank those volunteers when you see them at the door btw, because without them, there would be no events :) ) Member benefits and other info are listed on our website at robertscreeklegion.ca/membership. We sincerely want to keep the legion open, and are hosting musical events which showcase the amazing talents of our local musicians. But its still touch and go. Show your support for them and for us by joining or renewing (online renewal available, too). Thanks all, and enjoy what our Little Legion brings to Roberts Creek!
