Absolutely. We are dealing with much higher operating expenses as a result of the pandemic and going forward our expenses are much higher as we now operate with pandemic protocols in place in accordance with provincial directives and public health guidelines. All this is to keep our patrons safe and healthy. Anything you can donate will be greatly appreciated. Our goal is to raise $10,000.00. Thank you very much for your interest in keeping the hub of Delaware going.
We just want everyone to feel safe and secure while having fun being able to once again enjoy the friendly environment of the Delaware Legion. It is important to follow the guidelines that have been put in place. They are there to protect you. Also we appreciate the support of our members and patrons with keeping our space tidy and cared for!
