The Langley Senior Resources Society is holding an indoor Remembrance Day service on Tuesday, November 10, starting at 10:45 am, and everyone in the community is welcome to attend.
The ceremony is in the main hall of the seniors centre and is open to all ages. People do not need to be members of the seniors centre to come, the Langley Advance Times reported on November 6. Executive director Kate Ludlam said the service is a chance for the community to come together.
"We live in a world that seems to be more divisive than ever," Ludlam told the Langley Advance Times. "This is time to reflect."
What the service includes
The Langley Advance Times reported that the service includes a piper, a trumpet player, the centre's Creekside Chorus, RCMP members and readings. The chorus has been rehearsing Remembrance Day material for the event.
Poppies are available at the centre's front desk, both Royal Canadian Legion poppies and poppy sticker versions, the Langley Advance Times reported.
An accessible option for those who cannot attend outdoors
Ludlam told the Langley Advance Times the indoor service offers an alternative for residents who find it hard to attend the outdoor ceremonies at local cemeteries and cenotaphs. The main hall provides seating, which makes it a better option for people dealing with cold or wet weather, limited mobility or other health concerns.
"Coming here where they're comfortable and it's indoors might be a little bit more accessible," Ludlam said.
The seniors centre will be closed on Wednesday, November 11, the actual statutory holiday. The ceremony is on November 10, the day before.
