More than 200 people sat down for the Royal Canadian Legion Br. #99’s annual “Good Friday” fish fry in Emo.
Those in attendance enjoyed a fantastic meal of fresh fish and all the fixings, topped off with homemade pie and ice cream.
As well, more than 75 take-out meals were picked up or delivered to people in their homes.
The Legion would like to thank everyone who helped in the kitchen, and for supporting them by either attending the fish fry or by placing a take-out order.
