Remembrance Day

Each November 11th members of the community gather at Forbes Hall to honour and remember our family, friends, neighbours, and countrymen & women whom have served their nation in the Armed Forces during war time, peace-keeping, UN deployment and regional and national disasters. 

We especially remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their service and those for whom their service echoed throughout their lives upon returning home to civilian life.  The Thetis Island Remembrance Day gathering honours all servicemen and servicewomen, regardless of nationality or creed.

Please gather at the community centre at 10:30.  There will be a table set up for photos and memorabilia you may wish to share with us. 

At 11 am, ("at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month") we will stand together in silence in the traditional Act of Remembrance.

Coffee will be offered afterwards.  If you are able to bring some baking to share, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Please do not park in front of the flag pole in front of the hall on Nov. 11th. That area is reserved for this event.
