Remembrance Day in Guelph has a different look and feel as well due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.The city says the community has to honour veterans and their sacrifices while maintaining physical distancing due to COVID-19.
Faces to Names initiative tells stories of 28 Guelph soldiers who died in WWII Unlike past traditions on Nov. 11, there will be no service at the Sleeman Centre and no parade past the Guelph cenotaph at Woolwich and Wyndham streets.Instead, there will only be a brief ceremony at the cenotaph at 10:40 a.m.
There’s also an outdoor service at McCrae House museum on Water Street at 9 a.m.Both are being hosted by the local branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and everyone attending a service has to maintain physical.
