National Day of Remembrance
REMEMBRANCE… Paul Hergott, a Capital News columnist and advocate for safer driving habits, has led an even to commemorate the National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims in the Okanagan since 2012.
Join us on Wednesday November 18, 2015 at Orchard Park mall as we commemorate the National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims. We will gather at 5:00, with a brief ceremony to be held at 5:30.
The National Day of Remembrance for Road Crash Victims in Canada is a day set aside to remember people killed or seriously injured on Canadian roads, often in avoidable collisions, and those left to deal with the sudden and unexpected loss of those they love.
Thank you for your continued support with this event. It is important to remember the lives that are lost or changed forever as a result of an avoidable tragedy on the road.
