THURSDAY, MAY 10, 2012 THE NEW TANNER 17 CANDLELIGHT TRIBUTE: Poor weather may have kept the crowd small for Acton's Candlelight Tribute last Thursday at the Acton Cenotaph.

Yours in Comradeship, Peggy Harris, President to Branch 197 Ladies Auxiliary Legion news Branch no. 197 By Sharon Graham P.R.O. Comrades, A special thank you goes out to the Legion members that attended the Silent Candlelight walk, to remember our veterans. The Brett Baker show last Friday was great. Everyone had a good time and the dance floor was filled most of the night. A special thank you to the crew who prepared a great BBQ ­ John, Gary, Les and Sheryl. Everyone commented on the fried onions. Great job everyone. There is a signup sheet on the bulletin board for volunteers on our entertainment evenings. If you can help out please sign the sheet. This way we can continue to have great BBQs, but we need some help, please. Our next entertainment will be on May 18, with Bad Weather. The entertainment will start at 7 p.m. There will be a BBQ on this evening from 6 to 8 p.m. So, come out for a nice evening of food and entertainment. It will either be in the games room, or if the weather is good, on the patio. Please remember everyone is welcome. I want to wish all of the moms out there a Happy Mother's Day this coming Sunday. Please remember our election on May 15 with dinner at 6 p.m., followed by our elections at 8 p.m. Ladies Auxiliary Notes Branch 197 Ladies, just a reminder that tonight (Thursday)
