Call Directions Website

Stratford Legion Branch 8 We have been proudly supporting Stratford veterans and various community groups since October 1926! Our mandate is REMEMBRANCE.

The Royal Canadian Legion is the largest veteran's organisation in Canada with over 300,000 members! Working to ensure the more than 117,000 men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice are never forgotten. We also work to support past and current service members and their families. Each year our poppy campaign raises funds for our service members and their dependants. Stratford Branch 8 received its charter in October of 1926, opened as Loghrin Memorial Home. A tribute paid to a city councillor who lost his life in the Great War. Branch 8 has been a leader in the community for close to a century. We continue to support senior citizens, community and youth. We aid with funding education through bursaries to the two high schools. We also support various sporting activities for both the young and the old! We are currently the proud sponsor of 19 Stratford Air Cadets! An undertaking of more that 50 years! Join us in our lounge Friday 3:00-6:00pm and Saturday 2:00-6:00pm!

At last night’s concert in Stratford, we were proud to recognize the extraordinary legacy of Stratford Legion Branch 8, this year celebrating 100 years of service, with a presentation to their President, Frank Mathieson.
As one of the ten original Legions in Ontario, Branch 8 helped lay the foundation for what has now grown to 139 branches across the province and more than 1,300 across Canada.
Congratulations Branch 8 for a century of standing with veterans, strengthening communities, and honouring those who have served. 🌺
