Taber Legion Branch No 20 History and Community Impact
The Taber Legion, founded in 1919 as the Great War Veterans Association, has long served Taber and district. It supported veterans and families, organized free Dominion Day celebrations, backed Air Cadets, youth and sports, funded a new Legion hall in 1949 later renamed Billy Williams Memorial Hall, and opened a youth centre in 1991 now run by the Taber Rotary Club. The group maintains memorials, parades, and community services while preserving memory of those who served.
