Remembrance Day – 11:00 AM, November 11, 2020
Honour and Remember
The Remembrance Day Ceremony has played a significant role in Remembrance since 1931. Every year, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, we gather at memorials to honour all who have fallen; it is also a time to appreciate those men and women that continue to serve our country today.
Due to concerns around the Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19), there will not be a Remembrance Parade, and we are encouraged not to gather at Memorials.
His Worship, Mayor Wilson (Wally) Andersen, members of the 12th Council, Management, and Staff of the Town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay, encourage residents to pay tribute from our homes, doorsteps, and our driveways. At 11:00 AM, please take a pause and observe the moment of silence.
The Act of Remembrance
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.
We will remember them.
