Surrey to Host Six Remembrance Day Ceremonies Nov. 11

Surrey will hold six Remembrance Day ceremonies on November 11 — two more than last year — to honour those who served Canada. The city’s main event, organized by the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 6, will take place at Veterans’ Square in Cloverdale, featuring a 10 a.m. procession, performances by the Surrey Police Service Pipe Band and Cloverdale United Church choir, and a flypast of vintage warplanes. A special wreath will be laid in memory of prisoners of war by Brian Deck, continuing his late father’s tradition. New participants include the Seaforth Highlanders and the 39th Service Battalion. With up to 5,000 attendees expected, additional ceremonies will be held in Whalley, Crescent Beach, Port Kells, Newton, and at Surrey Centre Cemetery, reinforcing the city’s message of remembrance and unity.
