Estevan's Legion is taking precautionary steps during these trying times to ensure the safety of its members.

The majority of the Legion's members are either in or just outside of the highest risk category of contracting COVID-19, so with that in mind they came to the agreement to close their doors for the time being.

Frosty Forrest is a member of the Legion, he spoke to the measures they are taking at this time.

"We just felt this was the prudent thing to do with how things are going and you know a lot of times we deal with a lot of older clientele and it just seems like the right thing to do."

He added that they have brought everything to a stop at this time.

"We've cancelled all events that were in the Legion, actually, most people had already cancelled their own events. Until this thing settles down and we find out where we're at, we're going to remain closed."

They will still be answering phones and responding to those who reach out to them.
