Poppy Campaign

2024 Poppy Campaign
This year's Poppy Campaign is taking shape. This year's campaign will run for 17 days.
This is the longest campaign in recent memory and we will need some extra help to make this happen.

Garth is looking for Member volunteers to be Zone Captains, overseeing a specific area in Stittsville
to ensure poppies are organized for drop off as well as picking up donations and dropping off replacement boxes.
Positions are also available for volunteer drivers, assisting with pick-ups and drop offs of volunteers who made need some help.

If you are interested in either of these positions for this year, our second meeting will be held on, Tuesday September 3 at 6pm in the Lounge at the Legion.

The Legion's Poppy Campaign begins on the last Friday of October and runs to November 11th

At the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, as you stand silently in Remembrance, wherever you are, that small piece of real estate under your feet, becomes hallowed ground and the ghosts of all those lost in defence of freedom, stand with you. - A.L.O.



The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
The Act of Remembrance

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
We will remember them.

Zone G 5 Poppy Aide-Memoire

Two versions of an Aide-Memoire have been prepared,  for use by Branch Poppy Chairmen in our Zone. The AIDE NET is in four parts (each about 1 MB). It is perfect to look things up online, but it is not suitable for printing.
