Wingham Air Cadets

Today our cadets were in Bluevale distributing poppies and assisting with the decoration of the bridge with over 1,000 poppies to remember our fallen and veterans as we approach Remembrance Day. Many thanks to the Bluevale Community Centre and especially Bee Caskenette for organizing the wonderful initiative.

The Poppy Campaign has begun.

10/24/2026

From October 24 to November 11, millions of Canadians will proudly wear a Poppy — a powerful symbol of Remembrance and a promise that those who made the ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Across the country, Legion Branches and volunteers are once again bringing Canadians together in Remembrance, while raising vital funds to support Veterans and their families in local communities.

You’ll see our 543 Wingham Air Cadets around Wingham today raising funds. Please grab a poppy to wear in remembrance.
