FERGUS – The Fergus Legion Branch 275 was busy on Nov. 22 as holiday shoppers toured the booths at the Artisan Market sponsored by the Fergus Optimist Club. Profits will go to funding Empowerment Day, an event that sees Grade 6 and 7 students from the Upper Grand District School Board visit the Sleeman Centre in Guelph to hear inspiring speakers.
