Lucknow Kinsmen are doing for our troops is just a recognition and a show of appreciationfor what these men and women do for our country," said 'Nolan. "I think it's just a way of showing our grati- tude, welcoming them to our municipality just to say thank you for every- thing they do for us as Canadians." The Kinsmen who : trav- elled to. CFB Borden were all in agreement that their message for the troops was one of support and this was something they could do to show that. Even when it's not a time of war, the • Canadian military r always make sacrifices over family for duty because they can be sta- tioned all over Canada and the world d at ` a moments notice. One thing the Kinsmen hope is they can extend some small town comfort to the men and women of the Canadian Forces.

"It's a good thing we have a producer because it allows us to suggest these kinds of ideas through him to the artists." McMurray would also like to see this kind of sup- port for troops from the Lucknow Kinsmen at. future events they hold. He feels it's important to show the troops that they are always being supported by their fellow Canadians. "I'd like to see some- thing similar, of what we did here today with the tickets, become an annual thing," said McMurray. "It's important, being Canadian, that we support our troops and this is'r something we are able to. do for them." The Kinsmen are 1c ing for around 300 volun- teers to.. make the event(. a successful one. Tickets are on sale now at $49.95 with an increase to $69.95 on Aug.9.
