Petar Seslija

The Aylmer community is invited to gather on Wednesday, November 11, to observe Remembrance Day. Organized by the Aylmer Legion Branch 33, the day’s events will include a parade and a commemorative ceremony at the Aylmer Memorial Park to pay tribute to the men and women who have served and continue to serve their country.

The Aylmer Legion also invites veterans, members of the Canadian Armed Forces, the RCMP, police officers, firefighters, first responders, cadets, and community groups to take part in the parade.

The gathering is scheduled for 10:30 am in front of the Aylmer Legion, located at 59 Bancroft Street. The parade will be followed by the Remembrance Day ceremony, which will begin at 10:55 am at the Aylmer Memorial Park.

After the ceremony, participants and community members are invited to gather at the Aylmer Legion for a reception.

Every year, November 11 is a time for reflection and gratitude toward those who sacrificed their lives, safety, and well-being to defend peace and freedom. This commemoration helps pass on to future generations the duty to remember and the importance of not forgetting their contribution.
