The Remembrance Day service in Olds will begin at 10:30am on Wednesday, November 11th at the Ralph Klein Centre.
After it, Linda Anderson – President of Branch #105 – says they will head to the cenotaph at Centennial Park for a short ceremony there and then the Olds Legion will welcome everyone in with live music in the afternoon. Learn more here.
She adds, supporting our veterans is very important. Anderson says “we have different programs for getting veterans back into homes and right now we are supporting the Wainwright fire that happened up there with the military and supporting the families of the men who have been active in duty up there at Wainwright.”
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Legion and Anderson says all legions across the nation are offering free membership to new members who join before the calendar turns over to 2027.
