  • Royal Canadian Legion Branch 008 - Community Awareness Campaign Recap

    The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 008 partnered with us to launch a strategic campaign aimed at increasing community awareness, highlighting their versatile venue space, and reinforcing their open-door policy to welcome everyone. As Community Builder of the Year Award winners, the Legion wanted to engage the public, promote its offerings, and attract a younger audience.

  • Campaign Overview

    After a strategy session with the Legion's executive board, we identified the following campaign goals:

    1. Increase awareness of the Legion’s contributions to the community.
    2. Showcase the venue space with its bar, restaurant, stage, and recreational amenities (e.g., pool tables, darts).
    3. Communicate their inclusive message—the Legion is open to everyone, not just veterans.
    4. Attract a younger audience to experience the space and encourage new memberships.

    This 8-week campaign used multi-channel engagement to tell the Legion’s story and promote the event, culminating in a 70's Networking Night that connected the community.
