The editor:
The Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 60 and the Estevan Soldiers’ Tree Committee would like to clarify some misconceptions concerning the creation of a new monument by Soldiers’ Tree carver Darren Jones and local resident Lester Hinzman.
The legion and the Soldiers’ Tree committee were totally unaware of this project until the story appeared in the Aug. 18 issue of 鶹Ƶeast Lifestyles, and are not involved in any way with the project including fundraising and final placement of the carving.
We hope this letter will clear up any misunderstanding.
