Remembrance Day ceremonies starting at Civic Centre in PG

Prince George residents and Canadians across the country will honour the sacrifices made by veterans for Remembrance Day.

The ceremonies will start at the Prince George Conference and Civic Centre at 9:10 tomorrow (Wednesday) morning.

At 10:30, the Ceremonial Parade will assemble along Canada Games Way, before heading to the Cenotaph in Veteran’s Plaza outside of City Hall where the ceremony will continue with the Last Post, Two Minutes of Silence, Lament, and Rouse at 11:00.

Royal Canadian Legion Branch 43 President Ken Pendergast said the Prince George Flying Club has planned something special for the day as well.

“They’ve got something like 12 airplanes that they’re going to do a flyby with the 12 airplanes, and there will also be two or three helicopters that will follow as well for a flyover,” he said.

The community is invited to the Royal Canadian Legion branch for refreshments following the ceremony.
