Today I had the privilege to march in the Remembrance Day Parade from Legion Branch 24 to City Hall (where wreaths were laid) and then to the Cenotaph where we attended the Remembrance Day Ceremony. It was great to march along the newly named Veteran’s Way. This is a stretch of roadway that the City and Region worked closely together on to rename in honor of our Veterans. It was a beautiful day and it was very nice to see so many residents of all ages take part. After the ceremony we walked back to Branch 24 where we were able to spend the afternoon talking to and thanking many of the Veterans who sacrificed so much for the freedom we enjoy today. Then went down to Merritton Legion with our Fire Chief where we spent some time with Councillor Stevens and Foss, former Merritton Town Councillor, City of St. Catharines Councillor, and Regional Councillor Bill Marshall, and many of our Veterans from Merritton.
All in all it was a great day in which I felt honored and privileged to be a representative of the City of St. Catharines!
