Honoring Our Local Veterans
About
We are committed to teaching our community, especially future generations, about the incredible contributions and the role of many Canadians (including Billy Bishop) who sacrificed and served to preserve our freedom. It is our goal to help people remember, respect, and honor the sacrifices that have been made by our military.
Each year the Museum pays tribute to a number of Owen Sound and Grey & Bruce County Veterans. Their biographic information is on display at the Heritage Mall in December until early January.
2020's Honouring Our Local Veterans ceremony was broadcasted LIVE on Rogers TV, Facebook and our Youtube on Sunday, October 25th. Please feel free to share the video with you friends and family! Enjoy and lest we forget!
If you are a Veteran or know a Veteran that you would like to be nominated for our Honouring Our Local Veterans Program, please print and complete a Veteran's Survey to submit to the museum.
