You are invited to watch the live ceremony, right here, tomorrow morning at 11 a.m.

Tomorrow morning (April 24) at 11 a.m., community members are invited to watch the live stream ceremony where Cochrane RCMP will be joining fellow First Responders and Canadians by observing a moment of reflection in honour of Constable Heidi Stevenson and all those slain in the recent Nova Scotia Tragedy.

Cochrane RCMP officers dressed in Red Serge will gather at the Cochrane Cenotaph to observe the moment.

Encouraging people to stay home and not gather publicly, Cochrane RCMP, Corporal Troy Savinkoff shares everyone is invited instead to watch the event live streamed on Urban Casual. For those unable to tune in, a YouTube link will be shared afterwards for future viewing.

It's a terrible photo, but the evidence didn't last long! $15 for a 2 topping pizza + 10 wings on Tuesdays at @ducksontheroof93 #supportlocal #patiolife #mycochrane #datenight #wingsnight #nokidsallowed
Facebook is good for the memories sometimes. This photo is from June 2015, when I lived in Heartland on Belgian Street. That whole area is now filled with houses and stores. *Sam #mycochrane #heartland #cochranealberta #rainbows
I hosted my first Zoom cocktail (and mocktail) happy hour with the Kiwanis Club of Cochrane and Area yesterday. I taught them a few favourites & a few new drinks that can all be made with your favourite alcohol (or no alcohol!) & using ingredients you likely already have in your fridge. The conversation was spirited & it was awesome to help this group raise some funds. Oh BTW, I am Pro Serve Certified & I was a bartender on George Street in Newfoundland back when I was a youngin'. Always happy to pull out the skills. Let me know if your group would like have a cocktail night. *Sam #mycochrane #cocktailsandconnections #bartender #mixologist #skills

Philip will be down at Riverfront Park in Cochrane today from 2pm to 5:36pm (216 minutes), to honour the lives of residential school children in Canada who did not return home to their families. He will be available to share his own story, accept a log or two for his fire & to pass sandwiches through the smoke to feed those honored. Feel free to stop by with a log, a sandwich or a non-perishable food donation for Morley. *Sam #mycochrane #residentialschools #neverforget
