Legion tackle drinking issue; offer van rides
Branch 498 Legion in Grand
Bend will provide transporta-
tion home after its activities
during the festive season.
In passing this resolution,
the executive commended the
Province of Ontario and its
law enforcement officials for
their attempts at reducing the
problem of drinking drivers.
President, Keith Crawford
certainly feels that the key to
the eventual elimination of
this problem is education and
co-operation.
Legion members and their
guests will be transported
safely home in their
15 -passenger van supplied by
executive member -driver, Bob
Chapdelaine. In conjunction
with this campaign, the
Legion encourages its patrons
to take advantage of this free
transportation home within a
five mile radius.
Crawford speaks for this
branch in encouraging and
challenging other branches to
initiate such a program. Ex-
ecutive and branch members
have agreed to take their turn
-on a rotating basis. Rides
were provided for the
Christmas party Saturday
evening, and will continue on
the turkey shoot Dec. 14 and
the half -ton of Fun on Dec. 21.
Remember! Law enforce-
ment officials are not saying
don't enjoy yourself this
season! They are saying BE
RESPONSIBLE - don't let
your good time destroy
somebody elses!'
