As we look back on November, we pause to remember and honour the brave Canadian
soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 🍁
Our cadets from 361 Fergus Army Cadet Corps proudly participated in multiple Remembrance Day ceremonies and parades across our community — including Arthur, Salem, Elora, Fergus, and Highland Manor Retirement Lodge. In addition, our cadets supported the annual Poppy Campaign, helping ensure that remembrance continues for future generations.
We are incredibly proud of the respect, dedication, and leadership shown by our cadets as they commemorate those who served. 🌺
Lest We Forget.
