Remembranc­e Day ceremonies

-

Numerous Remembranc­e Day events are planned over the next several days in and around Hamilton.

Different this year, there will be just one downtown Hamilton ceremony on Nov. 11, instead of two on separate days. When Remembranc­e Day falls on a weekday, the city schedules a second weekend service for people unable to attend the main event.

This year with Remembranc­e Day on a Saturday, they decided to host just one ceremony.
