With Remembrance Day here, Wawa's Royal Canadian Legion Branch 429 is reminding this year is different.
Poppy Campaign Chairman Larry Harvey explains the ceremony has moved to the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre.
Harvey notes - given the arena's distance from the Legion Hall - there will not be the usual parade or stop at the Cenotaph, with the entire ceremony happening at the MMCC.
He further reminds everyone to wear a poppy, noting - while it doesn't cost anything to get one - funds raised through donations to the Poppy Fund support veterans, programs assisting veterans, and more.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the poppy's adoption as the "flower of remembrance" by the Great War Veterans Association, which later unified with other veteran groups to form the Royal Canadian Legion.
