Lest We Forget, Remembrance Day 2020

Samantha Nickerson1 min read1 week agoAdd comment

We were honoured to help the Cochrane Royal Canadian Legion Branch #15 with their Remembrance Day Cenotaph ceremony this year. In this time of Covid-19, we realize how important events like these are in our lives and that we should all be able to enjoy them safely.

While we did have a few technical/microphone issues at the beginning (we’re still a work in progress!), please do persist as it all gets resolved.


Bluepixelmedia, one of our partners for the day, also donated their services to create this Remembrance Day video of our veterans for local schools to watch. Enjoy!
