Remembrance Day Nov. 11th, Saturday

The community is invited to gather at the flag pole outside at Forbes Hall a few minutes before 11 am (the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month) for our National act of remembrance.

Remembrance Day was originally called Armistice Day and marked the end of the hostilities of World War I, but in modern times we also remember those who served and died in WWII, Korea, and Peace Keeping forces in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, and their wartime sacrifices.

Following the lowering of the flag and Last Post, we will gather in the main hall at Forbes for a 4 minute video and sharing of remembrances.

The TIVFD will erect a couple of pop-up shelters for the inevitable rain on Saturday morning.
