Amidst the ceremonies and sombre minutes of silence throughout the West Shore this Remembrance Day, the 7th Juan de Fuca Scout Group is making sure that the next generation remembers the sacrifice Canadian soldiers made almost a century ago.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 very youth driven,B次元官网网址� says scout group commissioner Donna Armstrong.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 about the little Beavers who are five to seven years old that need to know what Remembrance Day is all about.B次元官网网址�

Most of the youth and leadership come from the military or military-based families, she says.

The scouts begin marching from John Stubbs elementary at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday. Uniformed and with flags in hand, they make their way to the Juan de Fuca cenotaph at West Shore Parks and Recreation to begin the ceremony at about 10:45.

B次元官网网址淲hen everything is all over, we give everybody the opportunity to lay their poppies on the cenotaph,B次元官网网址� says Armstrong. B次元官网网址淭he entire cenotaph is covered in poppies. ItB次元官网网址檚 quite the sight.B次元官网网址�

The cenotaph is located just outside the Juan de Fuca 55-plus Activity Centre across from the bus exchange at 1767 Old Island Hwy. and everyone is welcome to join.
