Remembrance Day Ceremony Bala, Muskoka

Remembrance Day in Bala, Ontario. Held on Wahta Lands, it was a moving, colourful ceremony.
The water sparkled just over the hill. The trees, bare and brown, with the rich green of the pine, danced in the background, as we sang, and laid wreaths in memory of those who have fallen.

Branch President, Pam Davidson, led the ceremony. On her left, the Wahta Ladies and their beautiful drums.

The ceremony followed protocol. with our Sgt. at Arms, Keith Metcalfe, leading the troops at the left of the photo.

A marvellous man, he delivers Meals on Wheels, as well as being a mover and shaker at our local legion.

A former Paratrooper, he has contributed more than his share of service to his community, and his nation.

The Ladies of Wahta sang 'Oh, Canada' in Mohawk, and, below, Amazing Grace.
