Please join us virtually in a day of remembrance for the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country during times of war, conflict and peace.

Date:                    Thursday, November 11, 2021

Time:                   11:00 a.m.

Location:             The Rockwood Cenotaph

(at Main Street South and Guelph Street in Rockwood) and via Live Stream through the Township’s Facebook and Website.

The global pandemic continues to affect the execution of this year’s Remembrance Day Ceremony. The Township of Guelph/Eramosa is still planning for a much smaller yet heartfelt ceremony, at the Rockwood Cenotaph on November 11, 2021 at 11:00 a.m.

Anticipated significant changes to this year’s commemoration include:

  • No Parade
  • No colour party
  • No post-ceremony reception
  • Wreaths pre-positioned such that no wreath bearers or assistants will be required
  • No members of the Cadets or Wellington Riffles present

Please note, the Ministry of Transportation and County of Wellington have authorized the Township of Guelph/Eramosa to temporarily close a portion of Highway No. 7, between Fourth Line (Wellington County Road 44) to Milton Eramosa Townline in the Township of Guelph/Eramosa during the Service.

In addition, there will be temporary road closures on local streets surrounding the Cenotaph during the Service. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

The Township will offer a Live Stream presentation of the Remembrance Day ceremony on our Facebook Page and Website.

We remember all of those who risked – and lost – their lives fighting for the freedoms we enjoy today.

Lest we Forget.
