Christmas Dinner held at the Legion By Murray Green
A Christmas dinner will be served at the Camrose Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion from 4 to 7 p.m. on December 25. “This is our second dinner, because it was cancelled last year. Marilyn and I came up with this idea because there are so many people who are alone on Christmas Day or families have gone different directions, or are far away,” said co-organizer Jeanne Trachy. Back in 2019, Gina and Marilyn Weber, both who work at the Legion, decided to provide a supper on December 25. Soon they had a lot of volunteers. “We asked people to let us know if they were coming so that we knew how many people we had to feed. We cooked eight turkeys and fed 180 people
last time. They were not just Legion members, but people from the community who wanted a place to go,” shared Jeanne. The dinner is for families to get together and enjoy turkey, ham, potatoes, vegetables and even pie. “The Legion offered us the space and the kitchen for the dinner, but this is not a Legion event,” added Jeanne. “Once we started talking about it, people were offering us things like a free turkey or ham. They were extremely generous and the community was awesome. We even had volunteers come in on Christmas Eve day and peel potatoes for us and cook the turkeys.” On a Monday, a group of volunteers made cabbage rolls ahead of time, so they are ready to go.
Murray Green, Camrose Booster Jeanne Trachy is eager to serve Christmas dinner.
“The amount of donations and volunteer time has blown us away. I’m okay with doing this on Christmas Day because it is a feel-good thing as well. I’m happy people can get together and enjoy a meal,” said Jeanne. “All they have to do is find a way to get down here.”
The dinner is free, but you must register by December 15 by calling 780-672-3325. If anyone would like to play music during the dinner, they can contact Jeanne or Marilyn as well. You must provide a vaccination QR code to enter the Legion.
