The Lashburn Centennial Museum’s Veterans’ Gallery had a visit from Ray Fitzsimmons, a member of the Canadian Legion of Riders. They are a group of motorcycle enthusiasts who formed an association in 2006 that supports veterans, troops, cadets, and scouts in wartime and peacetime through fundraising, while at the same time enjoying the opportunity to ride their motorcycles. Fitzsimmons presented a cheque for $1,000 to the Veterans’ Gallery. On hand to receive the cheque were Murray Coolidge, Bev Watt, Bob Richardson and Kathy Berg, who thank the Canadian Legion of Riders for the donation. “The museum is looking forward to giving this group a tour this summer. If you see several motorcycles parked outside the Veterans’ Gallery this summer, you’ll know who has come for a visit!” says Berg. Photo submitted
