By LeRae Haynes
Saturday night the Royal Candadian Legion Branch 260 celebrated the 251st anniversary of Robbie Burns with a capacity crowd. It was the first Robbie Burns celebration in 100 Mile House in at least 15 years, according to Legion President Bev Torrence. "Ian and I have been to the last two Robbie Burns nights at the Legion in Williams Lake," she said. "Vivian McNeil from their Legion approached us and said that we should have a celebration here."
