As Remembrance Day approaches, our thoughts go out to the men and women who have served our country.  

We remember the ones who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and those that are with us and help us to remember through the work of the Royal Canadian Legion and other programs. The past months have given us many challenges and we have to face them once again.  

COVID 19 continues to make us review how we will proceed with our Nov. 11 ceremonies.  

Wawota

The Wawota Legion will have a wreath-laying ceremony at the Legion cenotaph starting at 10:50 a.m. Wreaths will be dedicated by the Government of Saskatchewan, Wawota Royal Canadian Legion, veterans of World War 1, Veterans of World War 2, Veterans of the Korean War and the peacekeepers, and those who have served and those who are still serving.  

The public is required to follow the guidelines of the province and community with regards to COVID 19.  

Kipling: 

Kipling Legion will be having a Wreath Laying Ceremony at the cenotaph at 11 a.m. Members of the public are welcome to view the ceremony following COVID protocols. Unfortunately the legion will not be having their usual tea or gathering following the ceremony. 

Stoughton:

Please arrive by 10:30 a.m. An indoor service will follow in the Stoughton Legion Hall at 11 a.m. All public is required to be fully vaccinated in order to enter the hall. The service will also be streamed on the Legion’s Facebook page.
