Cenotaph (by the Merritt Civic Centre)
On Remembrance Day, we commemorate the brave men and women who gave their lives fighting for our freedom. In honour of these fallen soldiers, the Royal Canadian Legion Merritt Branch 096 invites everyone to attend this annual Remembrance Day ceremony.
The ceremony will take place outside by the cenotaph. There will be barricades set up so that the immediate area around the cenotaph is clear and the street where the Legion’s color party marches is free from obstructions.
Businesses, organizations and individuals may lay their own wreaths this year if they wish to do so. There will be an open house at the Legion Lounge after ceremony. Everyone is welcome to attend. Businesses, organizations and individuals wishing to purchase a wreath please call the Legion at 250-378-5631 or email Legion096@outlook.com.
