First woman president at Tofield Legion installed

It was Barbara Ferguson’s birthday last Friday, March 15 and the crowd at the Tofield Legion that was on hand for the St. Patrick’s Day celebration wished her all the best.

But they were also wishing her well as the new President of the Legion. She is the first woman president at the Royal Canadian Legion, Tofield Branch No. 91, thereby making a bit of history for herself and the Legion she obviously loves.

When asked how it felt, she gently replied: “I really haven’t had time to get used to it.”
