Pelham administrative offices closed - Remembrance Day 2020

Please note that the Town of Pelham administrative offices are closed Wednesday, November 11, for Remembrance Day. The Meridian Community Centre is open . Regular administrative functions resume Thursday, November 12.

This year’s Remembrance Day ceremony will be held on November 11, 2020, at the Royal Canadian Legion on Highway 20, beginning at 10:30 a.m.

Most years, ceremonies are held in Fenwick, Ridgeville, and at Town Hall, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, those events have been canceled.

The Legion, teaming with Niagara College, will  livestream the ceremony, and veterans, their families, and the public are encouraged to view the ceremony online. You can watch at: https://livestream.com/accounts/15502389/legion613 

Physical participation is limited to 100 people, and those in attendance are required to wear a face-covering, and log their name and phone number for contact tracing purposes.  

Though the ceremony may look different this year, the substance and memory of those who have served are no less important. 

Wreath laying will be done prior to the ceremony.

Lest we forget.
