The Squadron has been invited to participate in the City of Pembroke’s Remembrance Day parade and ceremony this Sunday, November 11, 2012. Cadets are to be dropped off at the Pembroke Armoury at 0930hrs (9:30am) on Sunday.
Cadets are to come dressed in full uniform (i.e. dress shirt, tie, tunic, parka, etc…) and must wear a poppy. Cadets who do not have a complete uniform are still encouraged to participate. They are asked to wear appropriate civilian attire and their cadet parka. If a parka has not been issued one will be issued Sunday morning.
Following the ceremony at the Cenotaph the Squadron will march with the parade to Branch 72 of the Royal Canadian Legion (202 Pembroke Street East) where the cadets will be dismissed. The Ladies Auxillary will be serving chilli and refreshments in the main hall following the parade. Cadets will not be returning to the Armoury following the parade. Cadets are to be picked up at the Legion following the parade at approximately 1300hrs (1:00pm).
Cadets who cannot attend the City of Pembroke’s ceremony are encouraged to attend a ceremony in their local community. If this is the case, please inform the Administration Officer, OCdt McGinley, following the event so that your participation can be recorded on your file.
The officer in charge for this event is Lt Gerrard who will be assisted by Lt Frampton and OCdt McGinley. Questions may be addressed to Lt Gerrard by calling 613-732-1353 or by emailing her at catherine.gerrard@cadets.gc.ca.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
