Friday

the remember project


my dad and the military vechile preservation group he belongs to, western command, have created a week long remembrance day event, the remember project. their goal was to create way of making remembrance day more revelant for school children (and the general public). they worked with the municipality, local stores, the canadian armed forces, veteran affairs, the school district and collectors from bc, alberta and the us to create a show filled with vechiles, interactive displays, video stations and opportunities to chat with veterans. if you happen to be in abbotsford today, you should check it out.
this article has more details (though it only mentions one of the main organizers not the whole group).

That is such a worthwhile thing to be doing. Did you mean to include a link to an article as well?
