Message From The President
We had a special guest in our Legion. Surerus is in town working on the LNG plant, and have very graciously made the largest single donation to our Legion in our history. Their employees came together and presented us with a cheque for $20,000!
Two outstanding members of Squamish RCL # 277 were nominated by their comrades of Branch #277 to receive the King Charles III Coronation Medal: Russell Robertson and Greg Trenholm.

Remembrance Day Service's
The Squamish Remembrance Day Ceremony has played a major role in Remembrance since 1931. Every year, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, we gather at the cenotaph located at Stan Clarke Park. The tradition of Remembrance will continue, and Canada’s Fallen will not be forgotten. The Royal Canadian Legion Diamond Head Branch 277 encourages all members of the community to observe a moment of silence on November 11, to mark the sacrifice of the many who have fallen in the service of their country, and to cknowledge the courage of those who still serve.
Support for Veterans
We proudly support our Veterans, their family members and supporters within the community. The Diamond Head Legion is committed to supporting Veterans education and transition. Our Legion connects, builds relationships and shares with like-minded Veteran’s organizations.
