Tobermory Legion Br 290
Submitted by Elaine Sinha, Br 290.
Remembrance Day ceremonies were held at the cenotaph in Tobermory on a mild but very blustery day. Due to pandemic restrictions the observance was carried out differently this year, there was no parade, a limited colour party and spectators were encouraged to watch online rather than attend in person.
There were spectators, but everyone wore a mask and maintained social distancing, as per guidelines, and we did have a number of viewers online.
Thank you to Dylan Hurst for video taping and Mike Reid for taking photographs.
The following wreaths were laid in remembrance:
-Canada – laid by Barney Hopkins
-Ontario – laid by Daryl Cowell
