Remembrance Day Nears, Wawa Legion Reminds of Changes to Local Plans

With Remembrance Day almost here, preparations are underway for tomorrow's ceremonies.

Royal Canadian Legion Branch 429 Poppy Campaign Chairman Larry Harvey notes the forecast and other circumstances have forced a change to plans in Wawa, including moving the venue for the longer ceremony from Michipicoten High School.

Harvey further reminds everyone to wear a poppy, noting funds raised support a few things, particularly veterans.

Poppies are available throughout the community.

In Chapleau, plans are to proceed as normal, with the wreath-laying ceremony at the cenotaph starting around 10:30 am.
