Hundreds of people gathered across the region on Remembrance Day, with one of the largest ceremonies taking place in Gananoque.
The day began with the annual parade along King Street before attendees gathered at the town’s cenotaph for a service of remembrance and reflection.
During the ceremony, John Beddows delivered the Act of Remembrance, while the Queen’s Band provided musical accompaniment throughout the service. Gananoque Poet Laureate Gretchen Huntley also shared a commemorative poem honouring the sacrifices of Canada’s veterans and military personnel.
Residents observed moments of silence, laid wreaths and paid tribute to those who served their country.
Following the ceremony, the Gananoque Legion welcomed attendees for food and refreshments.
Photos and video from the Gananoque service, along with ceremonies held in other communities throughout the region, are available on the Hustle & Heart 99.9 myFM Facebook page.
